Import Tips

• Include processing method (alkalized) in documentation, but confirm it doesn't add disqualifying ingredients

• Batch-test for alkalinity and sugar to prevent reclassification as plain cocoa powder (1806.10.10)

• Package for industrial use to avoid retail confection scrutiny under Chapter 18 notes
