ABSTRACT:
A stabilized chewing gum product containing an L-aspartic acid derived sweetener in its free form and method for manufacture thereof are disclosed. The chewing gum product includes at least two portions, one of which includes, in its free form, Aspartame (APM) as an artificial, low calorie sweetener. Also included in the APM-containing portion can be an organic acid which will maintain the pH of the portion at a level conducive to maintaining the stability of APM. A second portion can include flavoring agents, and optionally, at least one moisture-containing agent. The portions are arranged in surface-to-surface relationship whereby contact between the APM and the flavorings and/or moisture-containing agent of the second portion is substantially reduced. The stability of APM and, consequently, of the chewing gum product is substantially increased.
