ABSTRACT:
A flavor ingredient has been found to provide long lasting, high intensity and high quality flavor when used in chewing gum compositions. The flavor ingredient contains between 7-30% by weight of a flavoring agent such as mint oil, between 2-15% by weight styrene butadiene rubber, between 45-90% by weight starch or modified starch, between 0-8% by weight water and, preferably, between 0.5-4% by weight of a thickener such as silicon dioxide. The flavor ingredient is prepared by mixing the flavoring agent with particles of the elastomer to form a suspension. The suspension is then mixed with an aqueous starch solution and the thickener is added. The resulting stable emulsion is dried to form the flavor ingredient of the invention.
