Is Light Fruit Cake Halal?
MUSHBOOH
This fruit cake is marked doubtful because the emulsifier 471 can be made from plant oils or animal fat, and the label does not tell which source was used. The related emulsifier 477 has the same fatty-acid source question. Contact the bakery or supplier and ask whether 471 and 477 are vegetable-derived; a halal mark would also settle it.
