Overview
This classification, HTS Code 1702.20.24.10, specifically designates "Maple sugar" in its solid form. It encompasses pure maple sap that has been processed to a solid state, typically granular or crystalline, through evaporation and crystallization. This product is derived exclusively from the sap of maple trees and retains the characteristic flavor and color of maple.
This category is distinguished from its sibling, 1702.20.24.90, which covers "Maple syrup." While both are derived from maple sap, maple sugar is a solidified product, whereas maple syrup remains a liquid. The key differentiator is the physical state: sugar is solid, while syrup is liquid.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. The classification concludes at this level, meaning that any product meeting the description of maple sugar, conforming to the relevant additional U.S. notes, will fall under this specific HTS code. The focus for classification at this point is ensuring the product is indeed maple sugar and not another form of sugar or a blended syrup.
