ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to the problem of water-soluble tablets, wherein dry, edible ingredients having a substantially granular or crystalline structure are blended to form a dry mix which is contacted with an aqueous moistener comprising corn syrup and admixed to form a dough or cohesive powder. The moistened dough or cohesive powder is then mixed with a hydrolyzed starch material to form a flowable composition which can be suitably compressed to form a coherent tablet, using tableting pressures below 200 psig that has a tablet density of about 0.7 to 1.0 grams per cubic centimeter. Optionally, said tablet may be subsequently dried to a stable moisture content to improve storage shelf-life. The resulting tablet is tough, void-free, non-crumbly and rapidly soluble in water.
