Frozen Beignets from Germany
Frozen beignets are French-style, powdered sugar-dusted, pre-fried or baked, and frozen. As other frozen bakers' wares prepared beyond Chapter 10 or 11, they are classified under tariff item 1905.90.90. The powdered sugar coating is a minor component that does not affect the essential character.

Import Tips
• Ensure the beignets are fully cooked and frozen; raw dough is classified under a different heading
• Verify the powdered sugar does not contain anti-caking agents that may require additional declarations
• Provide cooking instructions to CBSA if needed
