A sugarless coating containing a normally hygroscopic material e.g. sorbitol, mannitol or HSH, in a crystalline form is provided which may be applied to chewing gum pieces, confections, or medicinals in the form of pills or tablets. The coating may be formed by first applying a syrup of the hygroscopic material to the core, followed by a dusting mix of the material in dry form. The coating may further include binders, film-formers, anti-sticking agents and dispersing agents. |
