Is Raspberry Buttercream Cake Halal?

MUSHBOOH

Madagascan Vanilla Extract contains a small alcohol-based carrier, so the product is flagged for a scholarly difference. An alcohol-free vanilla or plain vanilla flavouring declaration would remove the concern.

Hanafi, Jafari, Hanbali — their opinion: the trace cannot intoxicate, so it is allowed.

Shafi, Maliki — their opinion: liquid intoxicants retain their ruling, or the flavouring makes the food impure, so it should be avoided.
