<p>The present invention is a method for producing a chewing gum with a delayed release Acesulfame K sweetener, as well as the chewing gum so produced. The delayed release Acesulfame K sweetener is obtained by physically modifying Acesulfame K's properties by coating and drying. Acesulfame K 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 Acesulfame K high-intensity sweetener. When incorporated into the chewing gum, these particles are adopted to enhance the shelf stability of the sweetener and/or produce a delayed release when the gum is chewed.</p> |
