It's a toss up. Could be animal or vegetable.
But I wouldn't fret. Eat the deserts, and contact the company for next time.

Now this is scary.................!!!!
E479b
Thermally oxidized soya bean oil interacted with mono and diglycerides of fatty acids
Found in magarine and similar fat emulsions for frying purposes
In laboratory tests oxidised and heated (modified) fats fed in very large amounts to rest animals have shown to produce toxic symtoms including liver and thyroid changes and the development of tumours. The minute quantities in food for human consumption are not thought to present any risk.
May be of Genetically modified origin as manufactured from soya.
Personally I would give desserts with this additive a VERY WIDE berth and avoid at all costs.
