Could anybody please tell me how to change the font color of a markerclusterer marker. This is my current code for styling the marker

mcOptions = {styles: [{
                height: 27,
                url: "image.png",
                width: 35
                }],
                maxZoom: 8
                }

var markerCluster = new MarkerClusterer(map, markers, mcOptions);

A working JSFIDDLE to change the font properties of the clustermarker. Below is the code:

    <style >
      body {
        margin: 0;
        padding: 10px 20px 20px;
        font-family: Arial;
        font-size: 16px;
      }
      #map-container {
        padding: 6px;
        border-width: 1px;
        border-style: solid;
        border-color: #ccc #ccc #999 #ccc;
        -webkit-box-shadow: rgba(64, 64, 64, 0.5) 0 2px 5px;
        -moz-box-shadow: rgba(64, 64, 64, 0.5) 0 2px 5px;

        width: 600px;
      }
      #map {

        height: 400px;
      }

        var markers = [];
