Adding ice is a simple way to make gum harder.
Here's how to achieve that harder gum consistency:
- Add Ice: According to one source, adding ice to gum makes it really hard.
- Expect Crumbling: Be aware that extremely cold gum may crumble in your mouth.
It's also mentioned as a fun fact that chewing gum and chocolate at the same time is "pretty cool". While this doesn't directly address hardening the gum, it's a related observation about the chewing experience.
