Chewing Gum main ingredients are

  • Gum Base - chicle, mastiche (organic), rubber (synthetic)
  • Sweetener - either sugar, sorbitol, or Aspartame, with cornstarch for mass
  • Softeners - are added to maintain moisture
  • Flavorings - all kind of flavors (many use artificial chemical flavoring)
  • Color - added to bubble gum especially, but some gums are still gray -today there are practically all colors.

Chewing gum is a type of confectionery traditionally made of chicle, a natural latex product, or rubber. Chicle is the natural gum from Manilkara chicle, which is a tropical evergreen tree native to southern North America and South America.

For reasons of economy and quality many modern chewing gums use rubber instead of chicle.
