HS Code:
Fruit jellies, classified under HS Code 2007.99, encompass a variety of fruit-based spreads, jams, and preserves made by cooking fruit with sugar and sometimes pectin. This category includes products like strawberry jam, raspberry jelly, and other fruit-based confectionery spreads, often used in households and the food industry for baking and as condiments. The global trade of fruit jellies is driven by consumer demand for natural and organic products, regional production capabilities, and seasonal fruit availability.
