A video was recording the rules of writing greetings on cakes sold at the TOUS Les JOURS bakery, viral some time ago. The rules are printed on a piece of paper and taped to the glass shop.

There are several written rules. One of them is forbidden to write remarks contrary to Islamic law on the cake. Such as writing greetings on Christmas, Chinese New Year, and others. Other prohibited writing is valentine, halloween, and others.

The appeal is, allow visitors to bring halal-certified birthday cakes into the restaurant. If you do not have a halal certificate, you are only allowed to do photo-shoots or birthday events.

Aside from Tous Les Jours and D’cost, Yoshinoya’s (beef bowl) gyudon franchise restaurant also appealed to its visitors for the certification of halal food on a piece of paper. Of the ten rules published by Yoshinoya, one of them urged visitors to celebrate birthday parties at their stores to bring halal-certified birthday cakes.

“If you bring a birthday cake, it must be accompanied by a photocopy of halal certification, if you do not include a photocopy of halal certification. Then the birthday cake is only used for ceremonial, not for consumption at Yoshinoya restaurant, “as photos uploaded by Didikk Ekoo to Facebook on Thursday (12/12).

He said the regulation already set in the halal assurance system (SJH). As a supporter of the consistency of halal product production. There are 11 criteria for the rule.

One of them is the criteria for applying HAS is the product and facility criteria. In that case, written rules for planting products, product shapes, and sensory products so as not to lead to something haram. It was also written on MUI fatwa no. 4 of 2003.

“As long as not consumed at the restaurant, it’s okay,” Sumunar said when contacted merdeka.com in Jakarta, Sunday (15/12).

Facility criteria guide business actors to ensure that those used to produce halal products are free from something haram. According to him, this already done so that products that had not been halal certified had no impact and contaminated with restaurants that were previously certified.
