This heading covers the majority of ready-made articles of sugar entering the market in solid and semi-solid form, generally suitable for direct consumption and collectively referred to as sweets, confectionery or candy. It includes, inter alia: (1) Gummi containing sugar (including sweetened chewing gum, etc.). (2) Caramel products (including caramel products containing malt extract). (3) Caramel, porridge, candy, nougat, lollipops, candied almonds, rickat-lukum. (4) Marzipan. (5) Products in the form of lozenges for sore throat or cough tablets, consisting of gels in a manner of sugars (combined with or without other foods such as gelatin, starch or flour) and flavor-aromatic additives (includes substances with medicinal properties such as benzyl alcohol, menthol, eucalyptus and Toluan balm). However, lozenges and cough tablets containing substances having medicinal properties other than flavor additives are included in Chapter 30, provided that the amounts of these substances in each lozenge or tablet are such that they can be taken as a therapeutic or prophylactic agent. (6) White chocolate, which includes sugar, cocoa butter, powdered milk and flavor additives, but contains only a negligible amount of cocoa (cocoa butter is not considered as cocoa). (7) Licorice extract (bricks, blocks, tiles, pastile ki, etc.) containing more than 10% by weight of sucrose. However, when prepared as confectionery (with or without flavouring additives), licorice extract is included in this heading regardless of the amount of sugar contained therein. (8) Fruit jelly and fruit pastes in the form of sugar confectionery.

(9) Confectionery pastes based on sugar and containing little or no added fat, suitable either for the direct manufacture of sugar confectionery of this heading or for use as fillings for products of this or other headings, for example: (a) fondant paste, made from sucrose, syrup of sucrose or of glucose, or invert sugar syrup, with or without added flavouring, and used for making various fondants, as fillings for sweets and chocolates, etc.; (b) nougat, a whipped mixture of sugar, water and colloidal substances (e.g., egg white), and sometimes a small quantity of fat, with or without added nuts, fruit or other suitable vegetable products, used for making the corresponding nougat sweets, as fillings for chocolates, etc.; (c) ground almonds (almond paste), prepared mainly from almonds and sugar and used principally in the manufacture of marzipan. (10) Products based on natural honey, prepared as sugar confectionery (e.g., "halva"). The heading excludes: (a) liquorice extract (not put up as confectionery) containing 10 % or less by weight of sucrose (heading 1302); (b) sugar preparations containing cocoa (heading 1806). (For the purposes of this heading, cocoa butter is not regarded as cocoa); (c) sweetened food preparations, such as vegetables, fruit, fruit peel, etc., preserved by sugar (heading 2006), and jams, fruit jellies, etc. (heading 2007); (d) sweets, gums and similar products (in particular, for diabetics) containing synthetic sweetening agents (e.g., sorbitol) instead of sugar; sugar-based pastes containing added fat in a relatively large proportion, and sometimes milk or nuts, not suitable for transformation directly into sugar confectionery (heading 2106); (e) medicaments of Chapter 30.
