Is Fazer Assorted Sweets Halal?
HALAL
This sweet mix is not suitable because the label clearly lists carmine (E120), an insect-derived red colour, which is not accepted by the Hanafi, Shafi'i, Hanbali and Ja'fari schools. The label also includes gelatin without saying which animal it comes from, and shellac (E904), which many Muslims treat as doubtful. Note: the Maliki school permits insects without flowing blood, but we follow the cautious majority view.
