Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to coolness-modifying compositions that enhance the cooling effect of cooling compounds, such as menthol, cubebol, and the like. In some aspects, the disclosure provides uses of such coolness-modifying compositions to cooling effect of cooling compounds. In some other aspects, the disclosure provides compositions (such as comestible compositions or oral care compositions), which comprise a cooling compound (for example, menthol, cubebol, and the like) and a coolness-modifying composition of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, such compositions are in the form of a food product, a beverage product, or an oral care product, such as a toothpaste, a mouthwash, a tooth-whitening composition, a chewing gum, a dentifrice, and the like. In some other embodiments, such compositions are in the form of a body care product, such as a cosmetic product, a skin care product, or a hair care product.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally provides taste-modifying compositions that reduce the off taste of hydrogen peroxide. In some aspects, the disclosure provides uses of such taste-modifying compositions to reduce the off taste of hydrogen peroxide. In some other aspects, the disclosure provides compositions (such as comestible compositions or oral care compositions), which comprise hydrogen peroxide and a taste-modifying composition of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, such compositions are in the form of a food product, a beverage product, or an oral care product, such as a toothpaste, a mouthwash, tooth-whitening compositions, and the like.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally provides the flavor compositions that impart a wintergreen taste, but which include reduced amounts methyl salicylate. In some embodiments, the flavor compositions contain no methyl salicylate. In related aspects, the disclosure provides the use of such flavor compositions to reduce or eliminate methyl salicylate in a flavored product, such as a wintergreen-flavored product. In some embodiments, such compositions are incorporated into a flavored product, such as a food product, a beverage product, or an oral care product, such as a toothpaste, a mouthwash, a tooth-whitening composition, mouthwash, chewing gum, and the like.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally provides the use glucosylated natural steviol glycosides (GSGs) to reduce certain undesirable taste notes common to oral care products. In related aspects, the disclosure provides compositions that comprise GSGs and one or more ingredients that give rise to certain undesirable taste notes. In some embodiments, such compositions are in the form of a food product, a beverage product, or an oral care product, such as a toothpaste, a mouthwash, a tooth-whitening composition, and the like.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally provides taste-modifying compositions that reduce the salty taste of a sodium salt, such as sodium bicarbonate. In some aspects, the disclosure provides uses of such taste-modifying compositions to reduce the salty taste of a sodium salt. In some other aspects, the disclosure provides compositions (such as comestible compositions or oral care compositions), which comprise a sodium salt and a taste-modifying composition. In some embodiments, such compositions are in the form of a food product, a beverage product, or an oral care product (such as a toothpaste, mouthwash, and the like).

Abstract: The present disclosure generally provides taste-modifying compositions that reduce the off taste of alkali metal salts of peroxymonosulfate. In some aspects, the disclosure provides uses of such taste-modifying compositions to reduce the off taste of an alkali metal salt of peroxymonosulfate, such as potassium peroxymonosulfate. In some other aspects, the disclosure provides compositions (such as comestible compositions or oral care compositions), which comprise an alkali metal salt of peroxymonosulfate and a taste-modifying composition of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, such compositions are in the form of a food product, a beverage product, or an oral care product, such as a toothpaste, a mouthwash, and the like.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides for a reduced-calorie partially-frozen beverage, concentrate syrup, mix and a method for making a reduced-calorie partially-frozen beverage. The freezing point of the partially-frozen beverage is depressed through the use of an L-sugar, such as, for example, L-hexose monosaccharide alone or in combination with other freezing point depressants. In a particular embodiment, L-glucose is added to a reduced-calorie partially-frozen beverage in a range between about 0.1% to about 10% by weight of the finished beverage.

Abstract: An aerated sauce and method for making and dispensing the same is provided in this disclosure. In one particular embodiment, the aerated sauce comprises pureed fruit, a stabilizer, and entrained gas. In this embodiment, the stabilizer comprises at least one of hydrocolloids, gums, pectins, and gelatins. When the gas, pureed fruit, and stabilizer are mixed together, an aerated sauce with entrained gas is formed. Also disclosed in this document is a method for manufacturing an aerated sauce and a container and method for dispensing an aerated sauce.

Abstract: Confectionery with hydrolase enzymes have changeable textures where the action of the hydrolase causes the texture to change over time. The confectionery can be multi-region confectionery or single region chewy confectionery where the extent of hydrolysis is manipulated to control the texture change.

Abstract: A multi-region confectionery composition includes a first region including a particulate material having a negative heat of solution and a second region at least partially surrounding the first region to create one or more cavities that are filled by the first region. The second region includes a soluble chewable matrix. The multi-region confection can optionally include a third region at least partially surrounding the second region.

Abstract: The present invention relates to sensate-plated sanding compositions, products containing the same and methods for preparing. More specifically, the compositions of the present invention may include a particulate and a sensate composition, which may include a flavor and/or functional component, associated with the particulate.
