A metastable, translucent flavor nanoemulsion is provided. The nanoemulsion contains a flavor oil phase, an aqueous phase, and a surfactant system containing a first lecithin and a second lecithin. The nanoemulsion is free of any non-natural surfactant. The surfactant system contains free fatty acid 15% or less. The first lecithin has an HLB of 1 to 8, and the second lecithin has an HLB of 8 to 16 and contains phosphatidylcholine and lysophosphatidylcholine 20% or greater. Also disclosed are a method for preparing the nanoemulsion and use of the nanoemulsion in liquid beverages and liquid beverage concentrates.

A method is provided for making a molten, deposited confectionery product, such as a chewing gum product. In an embodiment of the method for making a chewing gum product, one or more sugar alcohols are blended and melted before adding gum base and other ingredients. The process allows depositing at cooler temperatures than previously believed possible, which simplifies safe processing and protects product quality. In cases where the product is deposited in molds which are part of the packaging, the lower depositing temperatures allow greater flexibility in packaging materials and processes than when the sugar alcohols and other ingredients such as gum base are melted together. A product of the method also is provided.
