## Key differences
| Feature | 1106.30 (Pure) | 2106.90 (Food Prep) |
|-----------------------|----------------------|-----------------------------|
| Additives | Only minor ones | Significant (e.g., sugar) |
| Primary use | Supplement or ingredient | Ready-to-eat food product |
| Composition | Mostly Camu Camu | Blended with other foods |
## How to choose
- Is the product made only from Camu Camu, with no added sugars or starches? → 1106.30
- Does it contain glucose, sucrose, starch, or other food ingredients? → 2106.90
## Overlaps & pitfalls
A product may fall into both if it contains Camu Camu powder and small additives like emulsifiers—this is acceptable under 1106.30. However, if sugars or starches are added in significant amounts, it shifts to 2106.90. The key is **intended use**: if it's meant as a food (e.g., drink mix), use 2106.90; if it's a pure supplement, use 1106.30. No priority rule is implied—choose based on the product’s main function
