Is Ferrara Candy Halal?
HARAM
This candy lists carmine, a red colour made from cochineal insects. We treat that as not permissible for regular food use; the Maliki school is more lenient with insects without flowing blood, but the Hanafi, Shafi'i, Hanbali and Ja'fari positions avoid it. Carnauba wax is just a plant glazing agent from palm leaf.
