Is Neufchatel Cake Halal?
HARAM
A halal certification mark is not shown, but the ingredients are dairy-based and the only flavouring and gelling-type ingredients on the label are plant or synthetic. We noticed pectin, locust bean gum, guar gum, and potassium sorbate, which are fine for a Muslim shopper.
The only point to double-check is the preservatives 223 and potassium sorbate in the coconut and lemon juice, but nothing here points to an animal source.
