Abstract: A compressible soft tablet is provided which has organoleptic qualities of a baked confection, such as a cookie, cracker or wafer, and is formed of prebaked comestibles, such as graham crackers, shortbread or other types of flour-based crumbs or even unbaked raw materials, coated with chocolate or compound coatings. Upon heating or baking, the tablet provides the taste and appearance of a baked confection.A method for preparing the soft tablet is also provided.

Abstract: An improved deposited chewable antacid tablet containing solid antacid particles which includes solid antacid particles having a primary particle size of less than 100 millimicrons, which particles are thoroughly coated with a mixture composed of a fatty material or oil, a surfactant, and a flavorant selected from the group consisting of chocolate, mint-chocolate, butter, vanilla, butter fat and mint flavors. The fat or oil is present in an amount of from about 25% to about 45% of the mixture. As a result of the mixture coated on the antacid particles a non-chalky, non-gritty, antacid tablet is provided which readily disintegrates upon exposure to saliva as such way as to function as a liquid antacid.

Abstract: An improved compressed soft chewable tablet is provided, which may contain an antacid or other active ingredient, has good flexibility, is breakage resistant and disintegrates immediately upon chewing. The tablet of the invention is formed of particles of antacid and/or other active ingredient which are isolated from other ingredients of the tablet, preferably by admixing particles of active ingredient with particles formed of edible fat or oil absorbed on a fat-absorbing material, such as microcrystalline cellulose and blending such particles with one or more tablet bonders; the tablet also includes additional amounts of tablet bonders, flavors and other conventional tabletting aids to help in making the tablet more palatable. Upon chewing, the tablet is quickly converted to a smooth creamy non-gritty palatable emulsion.

Abstract: An improved compressed soft chewable tablet is provided, which may contain an antacid or other active ingredient, has good flexibility, is breakage resistant and disintegrates immediately upon chewing. The tablet of the invention is formed of particles of a recrystallized fatty material, such as chocolate, a bulking material such as sugar or an active ingredient, such as an antacid, bound up in the particles of recrystallized fatty material, and a direct compaction vehicle which binds the particles of recrystallized fatty material and bulking material, under compression, into a chewable tablet.
