Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain high-quality chewing gum with prolonged sweetness, by adding steviolbioside to a chewing gum base. CONSTITUTION:A chewing gum base is blended with 0.05-3wt% calculated as a pure substance of steviolbioside or a matter contg. it in the high content. The addition of powdered saccharide, sugar, glucose, fructose, liquid saccharide, isomerized saccharide, D-sorbitol, mannitol, xylitol, etc. harmonizes effectively the sweetness of steviolbioside with their sweetness.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention is a chewing gum patented in which steviol biocide or a high steviol bioside content l is added together with chewing gum additives to a chewing gum base obtained by a conventional method. be.

In order to increase the ``4-philicity'' of chewing gum, 711 well-known chewing gum additives and sugars, sugars such as grape sugar, lactose, fruit spikes, hematized Kinuta Ir, and yuzu alcohol such as D-sorbitol are added to a gum base obtained by a conventional method. One or more types of sweeteners are used, such as sweeteners.
- It is well known that the most important thing is the persuasiveness of the IJ taste.

The present inventor has conducted extensive research to pursue this most desired chewing gum taste, and has found that a specific sweetening component contained in Stevia extract, which is a natural sweetener for the intestines, has achieved the present invention. This is what I discovered.

Stevia extract is used as a well-known sweetener, and its main shichimi component is madder, as described in Stevia repautei gamma nabert 21 Distribution 1.

Stevioside, the main sweetening ingredient, had M+frd properties and left an unpleasant aftertaste, so that it could not be expected to have much effect on improving the 11-lurophilia of chewing gum.

The inventor of the invention proposed that the high content of steviol bioside, which is slightly produced in the extract filtration process of Stevia extract (d), is added and used together with chewing gum additives in chewing gum paste. □ has succeeded in producing chewing gum that cannot be obtained using conventional sweeteners, sugar alcohol sweeteners, stevioside, stevia extract, etc.

Steviol biocide, which enables the present invention to be achieved, is not contained in all Stevia extracts;
Only in the process of a specific extraction method, stevioside has alkaline content a! l: It is generated as follows.

Until now, the method used to produce stevia-extracted bf products has been used to add stevia-noids or anti-containing substances to t'. Since it has been purified in a manner that reduces the rate of decomposition, it contains less than 1 part of steviol bioside per 100 parts of stevioside contained in the stevia extract.

Therefore, even if stevia extract is added to chewing paste, its effect will be that it is the main sweetening ingredient and has no effect on improving palatability. I can't be an IJ samurai.

stomach.

In the present invention, 7. Teviol biocide or its 1t6-containing substance is used, but even when using Stevia extract, a stevioside containing a large amount of steviol biocide, such as 100 parts of Stevioside contained in Stevia extract, is used. It is preferable that it contains 100 parts or more of steviol biocide (overlapping).

Steviol biocide or its contents are
Stevioside, or stevioside: 10 parts or less of rebaudioside A per 00 parts (stevia extract containing 10 parts or less) is characteristically obtained by alkali treatment etc., and this is used as a chewing gum base with other chewing gum additives ( Examples: taba, organic acids, fragrances, colorants, sugar chains or sugar alcohols, starch syrup, natural fruit juices, etc.]
It disperses homogeneously.

Steviol Biocide's low solubility, long-lasting properties, and high-quality sweetness properties are synergistic with chewing gum additives such as Banbetsu, and its +8;-d compatibility creates a high-quality, long-lasting taste that cannot be obtained with conventional chewing gum. 4, and has excellent palatability without affecting the mouthfeel and viscoelasticity of the chewing gum at all.

Steviol biocide has a sweet taste like other sweeteners, but there is little difference in sweetness, and when added to chewing gum, it can maintain a constant sweetness and sweetness compared to other synthetic sweeteners and natural sweeteners. This is a characteristic that cannot be obtained with sweeteners, stevia extracts, stevioside, etc.

These effects and characteristics are completely new and have not been announced so far.

The addition rate of steviolpaiosa ide to chewing gum base V2 is preferably 0.05 to 3% in terms of pure product, and when added, powdered sugar, sugar,
Glucose, fructose, liquid spike, h'4 sex ratio, malt grade, etc., or (and) D-n rubit, mannit, xylit, reduction'i: 1111 of bud M! If , or two or more types are used together, they will harmonize well with these eye bodies and be effective.

In addition, for f3f, one or more types of yuzu such as aspartame, dihydro chalcone, saccharin, sellit extract, thaumatin or its contents, stevioside, rebaudioside A1 or stevia extract containing these are used. By doing so, it is possible to improve the quality of these sweet tastes and to obtain a chewing gum that has a longer-lasting and high-quality sweet taste.

The present invention will be demonstrated and demonstrated by practical examples below.

Note that % shown in Examples means % by weight. Moreover, the sensory test method is as shown below.

A panel of 20 men and women between the ages of 15 and 20 evaluated the taste quality and the persistence of sweetness. Sustainability was evaluated by determining whether the sweetness was noticeable or not after 5 minutes of eating.

Example 1゜Gum paste 20% powder
sugar 4
9% D-sorbitol (powder) 20% water candy
7% steviol biocide 20%.

Powder made by homogeneously mixing 80% of purified glucose A5X peppermint flavor 1% or more of the blended raw materials are put into a Niguu heated at 40°C, mixed homogeneously, then molded into a block shape, and then this molded product is rolled using a rolling roller. After rolling it into a sheet shape, it was cut into appropriate sizes to obtain peppermint gum.

As Comparative Example 1, 10% stevioside, 1% rebaudioside A, and other glycosides contained in stevia were used instead of 3% powder obtained by homogeneously combining 20% steviol bioside and 80% purified grape cob in 1M in Example 1. A chewing gum was obtained in the same manner using 3% of the purified stevia extract consisting of 2%. A sensory test was conducted on the chewing gum obtained in Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, and the results are shown in Table 1. .

As a result of the above, the product of the present invention is different from conventional products (stevia extract added,
It was found that the taste quality and its durability were better than that of d6 quality noodles.

Example 2゜In Example 1, steviol biocide 20%,
Instead of a mixed powder of 80% purified glucose, a mixture of 20% purified stevia extract containing 96% steviol bioside, 3.5% rebaudioside B, and 0.5% of other stevia-containing glycosides and 80% purified glucose. Chewing gum was obtained using the same formulation except that it turned into powder.

Comparative Example 2゜In Example 1, steviol biocide 20%,
Chewing gum with the same formulation except that instead of mixed powder of 80% dextrose, L-aspartame-phenylalanine methyl ester 0.6% and m-sugar 50% and D-sorbitol (powder) 21.4%. I got it.

A sensory test was conducted on the chewing gum that was chewed in Comparative Example 2 in Example d2, and the results are shown in Table 2.

As a result of the above, it was found that the product of the present invention is superior in taste quality and in particular in persistence compared to synthetic sweeteners. Therefore, sugarless chewing gum can be obtained by using one of them as a substitute for synthetic sweeteners.

Example 3.

Sugarless chewing gum was obtained with the following raw material composition.
