Import Tips
• Verify Brix value and composition to confirm it meets 'obtained by cooking' criteria; provide lab analysis if challenged
• Label jars with ingredient list, net weight, and country of origin per FDA food import regulations
• Avoid misclassification as juice by ensuring it's a cooked preserve, not liquid; common pitfall is insufficient sugar content documentation
