    Currently the phrase "cultured" diamond is considered (by everyone
    except the synthetic diamond manufacturers themselves) to be
    misleading and unethical to use. The diamonds should be referred to
    as "synthetic diamonds". 

    It is very difficult for them to produce colorless diamonds, but
    according to some of their literature they are able to do this. I'm
    nor sure of their size range. The question is have you actually
    called and asked either Gemisis or Apollo and asked them directly?
    If they've said no they're not available to you then they aren't
    going to be available anywhere as these two companies are pretty much
    the leaders in the pack of synthetic diamond producers.
