U.S. imports of bread, pastry, cakes, puddings, and other baked goods (nesoi) (HS 190590) totaled $632.8M in July 2026, traded with 115 countries.
Importers of Bread, Pastry, Cakes, Puddings, and Other Baked Goods (NESOI) paid $19.6M in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 12% on $169.8M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: July 2026 dataThe residual baked-goods heading 190590 is one of the broadest in Chapter 19, capturing frozen and non-frozen pastries, cakes, puddings, savory snack foods such as corn chips (1905909030), pizza and quiche (1905909060), and even communion wafers and pharmaceutical capsule shells (1905909090). Canada and Mexico lead supply, with Italy and France prominent for premium pastry and specialty bread lines. Correct classification within the nine active 10-digit lines depends on product form (frozen vs. non-frozen), chocolate or confectionery content, and whether the item is a sweet or savory baked product — misclassification between lines is a common audit finding. All imported products in this heading are subject to FDA FSMA facility registration and US labeling requirements.

The classification turns on whether the product's essential character is that of a pastry/cake (1905901041) or a bread/biscuit-type product (1905901049), and whether chocolate or confectionery content is present. CBP has issued rulings on chocolate-containing baked goods that weigh the proportion and role of the chocolate component; importers with ambiguous products should seek a binding ruling before shipment.
Communion wafers and sealing wafers are produced from baked wheat starch or rice paper, placing them within Chapter 19's baked-products scope. Empty capsule shells made from similar starch-based materials are captured in the same residual line (1905909090) because their base material and production process align with baked starch products rather than pharmaceutical preparations. The end-use does not override the material-based classification.
