Abstract
Some embodiments provide a composition including active region which includes an active such as sucralose and at least one coating layer contiguous with the active region. The coating layer includes a polymer and sucralose; wherein the coating layer either partially or completely surrounds and encapsulates the active region
Claims32
A composition comprising an active and at least one coating layer, at least partially encapsulating said active;
- said coating layer comprising polyvinyl acetate and sucralose.
A composition comprising a sucralose region and at least one coating layer contiguous with said sucralose region;
- said coating layer comprising a polymer and sucralose;
- wherein said coating layer completely surrounds said sucralose region.
A sucralose composition comprising a sucralose region and at least one encapsulating layer;
- said encapsulating layer comprising polyvinyl acetate and sucralose.
A method of preparing an encapsulated composition comprising:
- (a) suspending active particles in a fluidizing air stream;
- (b) preparing a coating composition comprising a polymer, sucralose, and a solvent;
- and
- (c) spraying said coating composition onto said suspended active particles to provide an encapsulated composition.
An encapsulated sweetener prepared by the following steps:
- (a) suspending sucralose particles in a fluidizing air stream;
- (b) preparing a coating composition including a polymer, sucralose, and a solvent;
- (c) spraying said coating composition onto said sucralose particles to provide an encapsulated sucralose composition;
- and
- (d) evaporating said solvent from said encapsulated sucralose composition.
A composition comprising a plurality of particulates comprising a sucralose core encapsulated by a matrix comprising polymer and sucralose.
