Is Mr Kipling Shortcake Halal?
HALAL
Good news for this cake: the label lists wheat, vegetable oils, raspberry purée, vanilla-style filling and milk whey, with a vegetarian suitability statement. Pectin is a plant gelling agent, not gelatin, and the mono- and diglycerides are used here in a vegetarian-labelled product, so they do not create a source concern.
