This application is a continuation of U.S. applica CH2OH tion Ser. No. 09/830,654 which is a National Stage Entry of C CHCI PCT International Application No. PCT/JP99/05962 filed O O Oct. 28, 1999; the above-noted applications are incorporated OH HO herein by reference in their entirety. O CHCI TECHNICAL FIELD OH OH 0002 The present invention relates to various novel utilizations of Sucralose based on the characteristics of Sucralose. 0014. The present invention including various embodi ments mentioned below is based on the finding that the BACKGROUND ART above sucralose exhibits specific properties by itself or in combination with other components. 0003 Sucrose have been widely used as a sweetener because of its characteristics such as good Sweetness, rich 0015. In the below, the present invention will be (full-bodied) taste, water retentivity, ability to give thickness described referring to the embodiments carried out on the and the like. In recent years, however, general health basis of Such properties of Sucralose. consciousness and orientation to low calorie diet are making 0016. In this specification, an oral composition means a consumers avoid Sucrose, which can cause obesity and product which is taken orally (also referred to as an edible decayed teeth, especially in the area of beverages, desserts product in this specification) and also a product which is and other refreshments where low-calorie products are used in the mouth. For example, seasonings, salt cured increasing. products, stewed foods and like food preparations and food 0004 Thus, various high intense sweeteners have been including confections and beverages; oral medicines includ studied and developed as substitute sweeteners for sucrose. ing Sugar-coated tablets, drops, troches, throat sprays and Among the high Sweeteners, sucralose, which is 600 times syrups; and mouth sprays and like oral refreshment, mouth Sweeter than Sucrose, is attracting attention since it is washes, gargles and dentifrices and like quasi-drugs for oral non-carcinogenic and non-metabolize, i.e., having no calo sterilization or oral cleansing. 1. 0017.
