Is Cherry Custard Cake Halal?
HALAL
The icing and cake contain emulsifiers (E435, E471, E475); their fat may come from plants or animals, and the label gives no source. A plant-based note or vegetarian claim would settle it.
Jafari — their opinion: an unspecified source does not need to be investigated, so it is allowed.
Hanafi, Shafi, Maliki, Hanbali — their opinion: the fat could come from pork, so without a plant or halal source it remains doubtful and should be avoided.
