If I want to buy chocolates as gifts for Muslim friends, how can I make sure they are suitable for their consumption? This is because there are no 'halal' marks for food items in the West. Can anyone provide more information on this?

QUOTE(monsh @ Jun 21 2009, 04:15 AM) see the ingrediant ? You mean gelatin isn't halal?maybe got put gelatin or something ?  QUOTE(s@ni @ Jun 21 2009, 04:44 AM) eh, u r in Malaysia or outside? I'm just curious. Want to make sure it's suitable for our Muslim friends. QUOTE(fearz @ Jun 21 2009, 12:26 PM) can I ask why chocolates aren't halal? Besides those obvious ones which have alcohol in it. The ingredients are usually just sugar, cocoa butter, cocoa mass, vanillin, lecithin, etc. I don't see any haram ingredients? I think so but this 'halal' thing isn't that simple. Anyway, I'm not a Muslim so, can't really comment on this. |

QUOTE(PetomJL @ Jun 28 2009, 09:17 PM) You're right halal thing isn't simple, its not about 'no pork' only. I salute your care for ur friends Thank you.  ~ QUOTE(fearz @ Jun 29 2009, 12:08 AM) hmm i dont remember seeing any gelatin in chocolate ingredients..and I always check them to see the quality of the chocolate. You mean if the chocolate is expensive and of high quality, it's most likely suitable for Muslims?Maybe if theres gelatin inside the chocolate is of poor quality. Good chocolate bars usually just have milk, cocoa butter, cocoa mass, sugar, and vanillin as flavoring, not so many ingredients. Local chocolates with palm oil are shit and not worth eating for me. |
