Frosted Wheat Flakes Cereal from China
Frosted Wheat Flakes Cereal consists of thin wheat flakes that are roasted and frosted with beet sugar icing for added sweetness. It is classified under tariff item 1904.10.90 as a prepared food obtained by the roasting of cereals, not elsewhere specified. The product does not meet the 25% wheat threshold for the sibling items, as the wheat content is below that level after accounting for other ingredients.

Import Tips
• Determine the exact wheat content by weight; if it is 25% or more, the product falls under a tariff-rate quota item
• Provide the CBSA with the full recipe and processing details
• Ensure the sugar coating is from cane or beet and does not push the product into another heading
