Is Plain Sponge Cake Halal?
HALAL
The label lists mono- and diglycerides and other fatty-acid emulsifiers, but their source is not stated; they may come from plant oil or animal fat. No label requirement reliably settles this from the market alone. Ask the manufacturer whether the emulsifiers are plant-based or look for an official halal certification mark.
