Import Tips
• Include ingredient breakdown showing peanuts/peanut butter to support classification over general filled bars
• Avoid retail packaging that mimics candy to sidestep butterfat quota limits in US Note
• Check for caramel/nougat interactions that might trigger food safety docs beyond standard cocoa imports
