Your inquiry does not provide enough information for us to give a classification ruling on the Chocolate Bianco Syrup. Your request for a classification ruling should include additional information regarding the “natural flavors” ingredient(s). Does this syrup contain cocoa? If so, provide a complete ingredients breakdown, by weight, for this syrup. When this information is available, you may wish to consider resubmission of your request. This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
