METHOD FOR PRODUCING ORAL COMPOSITION CONTAINING BUBBLE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing an oral composition containing bubbles by which the oral composition having good appearance, softy light sense of use, good dispersibility in the oral cavity and new real feeling of use can be obtained. SOLUTION: The method for producing the oral composition containing the bubbles comprises the following steps: a step (1) for heating a mixture of (A) an aqueous solvent and (B) a surfactant insoluble or slightly soluble in the aqueous solvent at normal temperature and having 30-90°C freezing point with (C) a compound selected from a higher alcohol, a higher fatty acid, cholesteryl stearate, casein, sodium caseinate, gelatin, gum Arabic and pectin to the freezing point of the component (B) to prepare a homogeneously melting composition; a step (2) for mixing and dispersing (D) a gas in the composition to provide a melting composition containing the fine bubbles; a step (3) for cooling the melting composition containing the fine bubbles to solidify the composition; a step (4) for stirring and mixing other raw materials with the composition to provide the oral composition containing the bubbles.
