| 摘要 |
The present invention includes a method for producing a chewing gum with a delayed release glycyrrhizin sweetener, as well as the chewing gum so produced. The delayed release glycyrrhizin sweetener is obtained by physically modifying glycyrrhizin properties by coating and drying. Glycyrrhizin sweetener is coated by encapsulation, partially coated by agglomeration, entrapped by absorption, or treated by multiple steps of encapsulation, agglomeration, and absorption. The coated sweetener is then co-dried and particle sized to produce a release-modified glycyrrhizin high-intensity sweetener. When incorporated into the chewing gum, these particles are adapted to enhance the shelf stability of the sweetener and/or produce a delayed release when the gum is chewed. |
