HTML in Toast?

I would like to display HTML text, not just plain text, in a toast message. Is that possible?

You can use cssClass property to customize your message

let toast = this.toastCtrl.create({
  message: 'some text with <b>bold</b>',
  position: 'bottom',
  showCloseButton: true,
  cssClass: 'toast',
  closeButtonText: 'Ok'
});
toast.present();

and my css is simply:
.toast {
text-align: left;
}

but when the toast comes up, I still see the HTML but I can tell that it is using the css by switching the align to right, center, left.

This not working in v3
