A sucrose-containing chewing gum ingredient is prepared by codrying sucralose with a codrying agent and homogeneously mixing about 50 to about 97 parts by weight heat-softened polyvinyl acetate with about 3 to about 50 parts by weight of the codried sucralose. The mixture is then cooled. A chewing gum is prepared by mixing the sucralose-containing ingredient, gum base, a bulking agent and flavor to make a chewing gum composition. |
