The present invention is a method for produc- ing a chewing gum with a zein coated delayed release high-potency sweetener. In accordance with the inven- tion, the zein coating is modified so as to be softer so that the sweetener particles are less crunchy and perceptible in the chewing gum. The process begins by mixing a quantity of zein, a solvent for the zein, and a water soluble modified cellulose compound, such as hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, together to form a modified zein solution. The amount of the inclusion material is preferably about 5 to about 40 percent by weight of the zein. This modified zein solution is applied to a high-potency sweetener and then dried to produce the delayed release sweetener particles. These particles are then added to a chewing gum formulation.
