Abstract:
The present invention relates to a coated chewing gum comprising a core of chewing gum and a coating, wherein said coating comprises a coating material and one or more active substance(s), said active substance(s) being in the form of a powder when applied to the coating. The present invention additionally includes a method of preparing the coated chewing gum. More particularly, the present invention relates to the active substance(s) such as pharmaceuticals, herbal medicines, vitamins and nutrients. The invention furthermore relates to use of the active substance(s) in the coating of a coated chewing gum, e.g. to provide a fast onset of the effect, a better stability of the active substance, and an increased effect thereof in all chewing phases.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a confectionery dispenser (100) comprising at least two confectionery article (11) magazines (12), each said confectionery article magazine (12) comprising a magazine outlet being coupled with at least one confectionery article dispenser outlet (13), preferably one, by means of at least one magazine discharge arrangement said magazine discharge arrangement comprising at least one confectionery article fitting compartment (19, 20, 21) adapted for performing a movement relative to said magazine outlets upon activation of an activation arrangement (101) and thereby a transferring at least one confectionery article (11) comprised in at least one confectionery article magazine (12) to said magazine outlet (13) or to at least one output compartment (A, B, C) According to the invention, an advantageous magazine fed vendor machine has been obtained.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use of natural vegetable flavouring components as flavouring agents in chewing gum coating. The addition of a natural vegetable component to a chewing gum coating results in increased flavour sensation. The invention also relates to a method for the preparation of a chewing gum wherein the coating comprises a natural vegetable component as flavouring agent. The chewing gum comprises a) an insoluble gum base; b) a water soluble portion; c) a coating comprising a flavouring agent wherein at least 10% by weight of the flavouring agent is a natural vegetable flavouring agent.
Abstract:
A coated chewing gum comprising a core of chewing gum and a coating comprising a coating material and one or more active substance(s) in solid form. The use of an active substance in solid form in the coating of a coated chewing gum provides a fast onset of the effect, a better stability of the active substance, and an increased effect thereof in all chewing phases.
Abstract:

A coated chewing gum comprising a core of chewing gum and a coating comprising a coating material and one or more active substance(s) in solid form. The use of an active substance in solid form in the coating of a coated chewing gum provides a fast onset of the effect, a better stability of the active substance, and an increased effect thereof in all chewing phases.
Abstract:
There is provided a novel degradable gum base comprising low molecular weight elastomer replacement compounds which are generally applicable for chewing gum formulations. In particular there is provided a gum base and a chewing gum comprising a polyester polymer obtainable by the polymerisation of two or more different cyclic ester monomers, wherein the cyclic ester monomers have a low glass transition temperature (Tg) and the polyester polymer has a glass transition temperature (Tg) in the range from (-20 °C) to (-80 °C).
Abstract:
A process for preparing a chewing gum wherein all of the gum base components and all of the chewing gum additives are charged, in any appropriate order, into a mixing apparatus and the apparatus operated at atmospheric pressure to obtain the chewing gum, subject to the limitation that the gum base does not contain a vinyl polyester as the sole polymer. In certain embodiments, the gum base comprises at least one environmentally or biodegradable polymer such as a polyester, a polycarbonates, a polyester amide, a polypeptide and a protein.
