About prepared foods obtained by the swelling or roasting of cereals or cereal products (e.g. corn flakes); cereals, not maize (corn), in grain form or in the form of flakes or other worked grains, from bulgur wheat

HS code 190430 covers a diverse range of prepared food products obtained through the swelling or roasting of cereals and cereal-based ingredients. These products, which include popular items like corn flakes, play a significant role in the global food industry, catering to consumer demand for convenient, ready-to-eat breakfast and snack options. This industry's output is closely linked to broader trends in the 1104 Cereal grains, otherwise worked and 1901 Malt extract; food preparations of flour, groats, meal, starch or malt extract, not containing cocoa or containing less than 40% by weight of cocoa sectors, making it an important component of the overall food and agricultural economy.

Production process

The production of HS 190430 items typically involves a combination of processing techniques, such as extrusion, puffing, and roasting. Cereals, including wheat, rice, and other grains, are first cleaned, sorted, and prepared for further processing. They may then be subjected to high-temperature, high-pressure extrusion to create the desired puffed or expanded texture. Alternatively, the grains can be roasted or puffed using specialized equipment, often with the addition of flavors, sweeteners, or other ingredients to enhance the final product's taste and appearance.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS 190430 goods include various cereal grains, such as wheat, rice, and other non-maize cereals. Specialized processing equipment, such as extruders, roasters, and packaging machinery, are also essential. Depending on the specific product, additional ingredients like sugars, oils, and flavorings may be incorporated during the manufacturing process.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of HS 190430 are a wide range of ready-to-eat breakfast cereals, snack foods, and other cereal-based prepared products. These items are often consumed as part of a balanced diet, but may also be used as ingredients in other food preparations, such as 1904 (Prepared foods obtained by the swelling or roasting of cereals or cereal products (for example, corn flakes); cereals (other than maize (corn)) in grain form or in the form of flakes or other worked grains (except flour, groats and meal), pre-cooked or otherwise prepared, not elsewhere specified or included).
