Definitions

  • the present invention relates to chewing gum and gum bases. More specifically, this invention relates to improved formulations for chewing gum bases and chewing gums having reduced levels of trans fatty acid as constituents of triglycerides used as softeners in the gum base.
  • the fundamental components of a chewing gum typically are a water-insoluble gum base portion and a water-soluble bulking agent portion.
  • the primary component of the gum base is an elastomeric polymer which provides the characteristic chewy texture of the product.
  • the gum base will typically include other ingredients which modify the chewing properties or aid in processing the product. These include plasticizers, softeners, fillers, emulsifiers, plastic resins, as well as colorants and antioxidants.
  • the water soluble portion of the chewing gum typically includes a bulking agent together with minor amounts of secondary components such as flavors, high-intensity sweeteners, colorants, water-soluble softeners, gum emulsifiers, acidulants and sensates. Typically, the water-soluble portion, sensates, and flavors dissipate during chewing and the gum base is retained in the mouth throughout the chew.
  • the water-insoluble softeners typically used in gum bases include fats (triglycerides) and waxes.
  • fats preferred as gum base softeners tend to have relatively high melting points (above 30°C) and to be derived from plant sources, i.e. vegetable oils. Because most vegetable oils have low melting points - typically below 20°C, these oils are normally partially or fully hydrogenated which increases the melting point by converting at least some of the unsaturated fatty acid residues (as fatty acid chains attached to triglyceride molecules are called) to saturated fatty acid residues.
  • This invention is directed to novel fat compositions which provide gum bases and the chewing gums containing them with desirable textural and flavor properties while minimizing or eliminating trans fatty acid residues from the composition.
  • a chewing gum base composition is composed of fat components having little or no trans fatty acid residues. Mixtures of hydrogenated and un- hydrogenated vegetable oils are formulated to closely match key attributes of prior art fat blends while maintaining trans fatty acid residues below 4% or below 3% or below 2% or below 1 % by weight of the fat composition.
  • the present invention relates to chewing gum bases and gums having reduced levels of trans fatty acid as constituents of triglycerides used as softeners in the gum base.
  • the fat composition may optionally include mono- and di-glycerides of fatty acids which act both as softeners and as emulsifiers.
  • a fat composition composed of a blend of un-hydrogenated and fully-hydrogenated vegetable oils are combined in such combinations as to reproduce as closely as possible the physical and chemical characteristics of previously used fat blends which included partially-hydrogenated oils and therefore triglycerides having trans fatty acid residues (more succinctly called trans-fats). While the specific physical and chemical properties which the formulator will try to duplicate will vary from case to case, it is anticipated that at least the following properties will be considered.
  • Fatty acid distribution is basically the mixture of fatty acid residues which comprise the triglycerides of the composition. The residues may be characterized by the length of the fatty acid carbon chain (e.g.
  • the degree of unsaturation (number of carbon-carbon double bonds in the chain) often designated as a number following the number of carbons such as C18:0, C18: 1 , C18:2); and the position of the double bond(s) on the molecule often expressed as an Omega' number counting the number of carbons from the terminal end of the fatty acid chain (such as omega-3 for a double bond between the third and fourth carbon counting from the terminal (non-ester) end of the residue.
  • a formulator may choose to try to replicate any or all of these aspects of the fatty acid distribution in the reformulated fat composition.
  • Melting point is the temperature at which the fat transitions form solid to liquid.
  • fats tend to melt over a range of temperatures due to variations in the fatty acid distribution of the triglycerides.
  • a formulator will try to match the temperature at the onset of melting or in the middle of the transition which can be best determined by differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC).
  • Enthalpy of melting is the total amount of energy needed to melt a specified quantity of the fat, usually expressed in Joules per gram.
  • the formulator will typically determine the enthalpy of the target and replacement compositions through the use of DSC when attempting to match the fat composition being replaced.
  • fat compositions may affect the flavor release rate and profile of the final chewing gum product. Therefore, the formulator may also try to match that property in the fat composition being replaced. This may require some degree of trial and error, although methods using solubility parameters, polarity or other physical/chemical properties known to influence flavor release may also be employed.
  • the formulator may employ mathematical methods to average the properties of the fat components, adjusting levels to bring the average close to the target fat composition.
  • the fatty softener composition will comprise at least 5% or at least 10% or at least 15% or at least 20% by weight of the gum base composition.
  • Typical usage levels of the softener will be up to 50% or up to 40% or up to 35% by weight of the gum base composition.
  • the water-insoluble gum base of the present invention will comprise, in addition to the fatty softener composition, at least one elastomer which provides a lively, bouncy chew to the finished product.
  • Elastomers may include, but are not limited to, polyisobutylene having a viscosity average molecular weight of about 100,000 to about 800,000, isobutylene-isoprene copolymer (butyl rubber), polyolefin thermoplastic elastomers such as ethylene-propylene copolymer and ethylene-octene copolymer, styrene-butadiene copolymers having styrene- butadiene ratios of about 1 :3 to about 3: 1 and/or polyisoprene, and combinations thereof.
  • Natural elastomers which may be similarly incorporated into the gum bases of the present inventions include jelutong, lechi caspi, perillo, sorva, massaranduba balata, massaranduba chocolate, nispero, rosindinha, chicle, gutta hang kang, and combinations thereof.

Elastomers may be present in the inventive gum base at levels of 1 to 30% or 2 to 25% or 5 to 20% by weight of the gum base.
  • the water-insoluble gum base of the present invention will further comprise and at least one elastomer solvent (elastomer plasticizer) which serves to soften the elastomer and allow it to be blended with other gum base components.
  • elastomer solvents commonly used for petroleum-based elastomers include, but are not limited to, natural rosin esters, often called estergums, such as glycerol esters of partially hydrogenated rosin, glycerol esters of polymerized rosin, glycerol esters of partially or fully dimerized rosin, glycerol esters of rosin, pentaerythritol esters of partially hydrogenated rosin, methyl and partially hydrogenated methyl esters of rosin, pentaerythritol esters of rosin, glycerol esters of wood rosin, glycerol esters of gum rosin; synthetics such as terpene resins derived from alpha-pinen
