A stabilized gum base and chewing gum are prepared using techniques that significantly reduce the amount of antioxidant lost during manufacture. As a result, the gum base and chewing gum include at least about two-thirds, and preferably three-fourths, of the amount of antioxidant initially added during manufacture of the gum base. The improved antioxidant retention is accomplished primarily using mixing techniques which significantly reduce the average mixing time needed to prepare a homogeneous gum base, and further by integrating the manufacture of gum base and chewing gum into a single continuous mixer.

L'invention porte sur un procédé de préparation de base pour gomme à mâcher et de gomme à mâcher stabilisées en faisant appel à des techniques susceptibles de réduire de manière importante le volume des pertes en produit antioxydant lors de la production. Il s'ensuit que la base pour gomme à mâcher et la gomme à mâcher contiennent au moins les deux tiers environ et, de préférence, les trois quarts de la quantité d'antioxydant, originairement ajoutée au cours de la production de ladite base. On obtient une telle amélioration, s'agissant de conserver le volume de produit antioxydant, principalement en faisant appel à des techniques de mélanges qui réduisent de manière importante le temps moyen de mélange nécessaire à la préparation d'une base homogène et, de surcroît, en intégrant la production de la base et de la gomme à mâcher dans un seul mélangeur continu.
