The present invention provides a method for continuously producing pieces
of liquid-filled gum material, including applying an anti-sticking agent
to the rope of liquid-filled gum material before it is individually cut
into pieces. The invention further provides for a liquid-filled chewing
gum including a liquid-fill composition, and a gum region surrounding the
liquid-fill composition, where the gum region includes an anti-sticking
agent that reduces the tendency of the gum region to stick to the molds
and operating machinery during gum manufacturing.
