Import Tips
• Verify cooking process documentation to confirm heat treatment at atmospheric or reduced pressure, distinguishing from uncooked purees
• Provide lab analysis showing Brix value and composition to avoid misclassification as juice or infant food under 2007.10
• Label net weight and ensure containers exceed 250g if not homogenized to prevent reclassification
