RE: The tariff classification of pastries from Italy

Dear Mr. Costanzo:

In your undated letter, received by this office on October 5, 1993, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

Three products are described in your letter, and illustrated in a product catalog you submitted under separate cover. Rollino Caffe and Rollino Cioccolato consist of a thin, baked pastry, rolled into a tubular shape, filled with a sweet, flavored cream, topped with sugar, and frozen. These products are ready for consumption after removal from the freezer and sitting at room temperature for one hour. Once thawed, the Rollino products may be kept in a refrigerator for three days. Sicilian Cannolo are the unfilled, fried, tubular pastry shells, used to make "cannoli," a cream-filled pastry dessert.

The applicable subheading for the Rollino Caffe and Rollino Cioccolato will be 1905.90.1040, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for bread, pastry, cakes, biscuits and other bakers' wares, whether or not containing cocoa...other...bread, pastry, cakes, biscuits and similar baked products...frozen. The rate of duty will be free.

The applicable subheading for the Sicilian Cannolo will be 1905.90.1050, which provides for bread, pastry, cakes, biscuits and other bakers' wares...other...other...pastries, cakes and similar sweet baked products... The rate of duty will be free.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the transaction.

Sincerely,

Jean F. Maguire
Area Director
