Overview
This HTS classification, 1806.32.18.00, specifically encompasses "Other" preparations that consist wholly of ground cocoa beans. These preparations may contain added cocoa fat, flavoring, or emulsifying agents. Critically, they must contain not more than 32 percent by weight of butterfat or other milk solids, and not more than 60 percent by weight of sugar. This category applies to products not classified elsewhere within heading 1806 that fit these specific ingredient and compositional parameters.
This category distinguishes itself from its sibling, 1806.32.16.00, by a quantitative measure of milk solids. While 1806.32.16.00 covers preparations containing less than 21 percent by weight of milk solids, this category, 1806.32.18.00, applies to those preparations containing between 21% and 32% by weight of milk solids. Both categories are within the broader scope of "Other, in blocks, slabs or bars" and "Preparations consisting wholly of ground cocoa beans."
As this is a leaf node within the HTS database, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification within 1806.32.18.00 is final for products that meet the detailed criteria outlined above and are not otherwise specifically provided for in higher or sibling classifications. The focus remains on the precise percentage composition of milk solids and sugar in relation to the ground cocoa bean base.
