Abstract

The invention relates to a chewing gum having modified release, said chewing gum comprising at least one resinous polyester polymer in an amount from about 0.1% to about 70% by weight of said chewing gum, and at least one non-polyester elastomer in an amount from about 1/2% to about 70% by weight of said chewing gum, the amount of natural resins being less than about 2% by weight of said chewing gum and the amount of polyvinyl acetate (PVA) being less than about 14% by weight of said chewing gum. The obtained chewing gum, thus benefits from the advantageous texture properties of e.g. non-polyester elastomer such as butyl rubber, poly isobutylene, SBR or derivatives thereof combined with the advantageous release and textural properties of the polyester polymer when applied with a relatively low amount of PVA and a very low amount of a natural resin
