International ClassA23G 003/30AbstractChewing gums incorporating Alitame in a manner to delay its release, separate the Alitame from gum ingredients which cause the Alitame to degrade, or both, are disclosed. The Alitame may be coated by an encapsulating agent applied by spray drying, fluid bed coating, fiber spinning or coaservation techniques, agglomeration, and fixation or entrapment/absorption plus encapsulation or agglomeration. Also, the Alitame may be incorporated in a physically separate part of the gum, such as a center fill, a part of a rolling compound, or a part of a panning composition.Other References
