  • Publication number: 20100136164
    Abstract: A package assembly for a multi-layer center-filled chewing gum is disclosed. The package assembly supports individual gum pieces that have a center surrounded by a gum region. The gum region may include a gum base. Optionally, the individual gum pieces may be further coated with an external coating layer. Components of the individual gum pieces create a duality, such as two tastants, that are identified by indicia on the package.

  • Publication number: 20080063748
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions for a center-filled confectionery or chewing gum product. The individual confectionery or gum pieces include a center-fill composition surrounded by a confectionery or gum region and optionally further surrounded by a coating. The center-fill composition includes a fluid carrier and saccharide particles suspended therein, which impart an enhanced cooling and/or textural perception upon consumption.

  • Publication number: 20080063747
    Abstract: The present application relates to compositions for dusting chewing gum products and chewing gum products incorporating same. The dusting compositions have a managed release profile. The compositions generally include a dusting component, which is at least partially encapsulated with an encapsulating material. The compositions also may include an unencapsulated dusting component. The present invention also includes dusted chewing gum products, such as center-fill, compressed or candy gum, and methods of making same.
