This study investigated sugar-free chewing gum flavor dynamics using nose-space mass spectrometry, chewing simulators, and dynamic sensory profiling. Increasing aroma concentration boosted volatile release but not sweetness perception. Flavor perception declined faster than actual volatile release, while sweeteners showed compound-specific release kinetics, offering manufacturers formulation strategies to optimize and prolong flavor delivery

Abstract
This study investigated sugar-free chewing gum flavor dynamics using nose-space mass spectrometry, chewing simulators, and dynamic sensory profiling. Increasing aroma concentration boosted volatile release but not sweetness perception. Flavor perception declined faster than actual volatile release, while sweeteners showed compound-specific release kinetics, offering manufacturers formulation strategies to optimize and prolong flavor delivery
