Ready to see how halal food can be both indulgent and impeccably compliant? Let us cake you away!

1. Our Unwavering Commitment to Halal Quality

At Colette Lola, “halal” is not just a label - it’s the cornerstone of our promise to you. Every cake component, from premium flour, butter and eggs, undergoes rigorous scrutiny. We renew our halal registration process to ensure complete transparency and compliance with Islamic dietary law. This dedication means you can savour every bite without considering ingredients or cross-contamination.

2. Demystifying the Halal Registration Process

You may wonder what it takes for a bakery to earn that Halal certification. Here’s a simplified snapshot of our halal registration process with MUI:

• Document Submission - We submit company details, supplier certificates, ingredient lists, and production blueprints to MUI’s certified body.
• On-Site Audit - MUI auditors inspect our kitchen, storage, equipment, and workflow to confirm no trace of non-Halal items.
• Ingredient Verification - Every additive—from emulsifiers to flavouring agents—is cross-checked against MUI’s approved list.
• Certificate Issuance - MUI issues our Halal certificate with a unique Halal registered number once we pass inspection.
• Periodic Re-audit - Compliance isn’t a one-and-done affair. MUI conducts follow-up audits every two years to keep us on our toes.

Navigating these steps guarantees that each Colette Lola cake is delicious, certified, validated, and trustworthy.

3. How to Check the Halal Registered Number

Before you place an order, you can independently verify our certification. Here’s how to check the Halal registered number in three easy steps:

1. Go to the official MUI website: https://mui.or.id
2. Select “Halal Certification” and then “Check Halal Certificate.”
3. Enter our certificate code (e.g., ID31110019060710724) to view details like company name, issue date, and expiration.

This quick check proves that our bakery meets the gold standard for halal food safety and integrity.

4. From Ingredient Delivery to Your Table

After certification, our real work begins:

• Receiving & Inspection - Shipments arrive sealed and labelled by batch number and arrival date. We log temperature, humidity, and packaging integrity.
• Dedicated Storage - The Ingredients for Halal cakes are housed in segregated areas: dry storage for flour and sugar and cold rooms for dairy.
• Precision Mixing - Our mixers are earmarked exclusively for certified ingredients, eliminating cross-contamination risks.
• Baking to Perfection - Ovens preheat to exact temperatures, and each tray is sterilized before use. Digital sensors monitor time and heat for flawless rise and crumb.
• Cooling & Decorating - Cakes cool on open racks before entering the decoration suite, where buttercream, ganache, and fondant—each Halal-approved—get their final, picture-perfect finishing touches.

5. Artisanal Techniques That Elevate Every Slice

Our pastry chefs blend tradition with innovation, applying specialized methods such as:

• Swiss Meringue Buttercream - A silky swirl whipped from egg whites, sugar, and premium Halal-certified butter—light, not saccharine.
• Mirror Glaze - A gelatin-free glaze derived from plant-based gelling agents creating that enviable glossy sheen.
• Fondant Sculpting - Hand-molded flowers, figurines, and ornate lacework crafted from stretchable, Halal-certified fondant.

These signature touches aren’t just for show—they prove that Halal cakes can rival any high-end patisserie masterpiece.

6. Rigorous Hygiene & Freshness Protocols

Maintaining a standard of Halal food hygiene is non-negotiable:

• Staff sanitize hands and don single-use gloves before handling ingredients.
• Production areas receive food-grade disinfectant every four hours.
• Equipment is colour-coded, washed with specialized detergents, and UV-sterilized to prevent cross-contact.

This rigorous routine preserves both the safety and sublime flavour of every cake.
