Import Tips
• Include supplier affidavits attesting no hazelnut solids or dairy proteins to avoid allergen mislabeling issues
• Declare exact creaming agent composition, as sodium caseinate from milk but non-dairy classified requires specific notation
• Prepare for potential USDA scrutiny if oil sources suggest animal fat contamination
