PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an oral controlled-release composition to be licked in a mouth so that a contained component can be melted into the mouth little by little while its flavor is being tasted and a production method therefor.SOLUTION: An oral controlled release composition is obtained by: an ingredient mixing step of mixing ingredients, which include a high-intensity sweetener and a starchy ingredient comprising at least one modified starch selected from etherified starch, acetylated starch, etherified crosslinked starch and acetylated crosslinked starch, where the starchy ingredient content in the ingredients is 40 mass% or more in terms of a dry matter a gelatinizing and shaping step of heating the mixture obtained in the ingredient mixing step to gelatinize the starchy ingredient and then shaping it into a prescribed shape, or for shaping the mixture into a prescribed shape and then heating it to gelatinize the starchy ingredient and a drying step of drying the shaped product obtained through the gelatinizing and shaping step so that the water content is 20 mass% or less.SELECTED DRAWING: NoneCOPYRIGHT: (C)2019,JPO&INPIT【課題】口の中で舐めながら、その風味を味わいつつ、含有する成分を口中に少しずつ溶かし出すことができるような口腔除法用組成物及びその製造方法を提供する。【解決手段】エーテル化澱粉、アセチル化澱粉、エーテル化架橋澱粉、及びアセチル化架橋澱粉から選ばれた少なくとも1種の加工澱粉を含む澱粉質原料、及び高甘味度甘味料を含有し、前記澱粉質原料の含有量が乾燥物換算で40質量%以上である原料を混合する原料混合工程と、前記原料混合工程で得られた混合物を加熱して前記澱粉質原料を糊化させた後、所定形状に成形するか、あるいは、前記混合物を所定形状に成形した後、加熱して前記澱粉質原料を糊化させる、糊化・成形工程と、糊化・成形工程を経て得られた成形物を水分が20質量%以下となるように乾燥させる乾燥工程とによって、口腔徐放用組成物を得る。【選択図】なし
