Edible Unsulphured Cane Molasses from Mexico
Unsulphured cane molasses is produced without sulfur dioxide processing, retaining a pure flavor from sugarcane refining extractions, ideal for baking and health supplements. Under HTS 1703.10.50.00, it qualifies as other cane molasses for human consumption, distinct from feed or quota-restricted sugars. Its natural microcrystalline structure and molasses residues confirm the classification.
