You can also change the style css and set the width of the resulting shape like this:
"<div style='width:100px;background-color:#9d2cd1;Font-Size:14px;text-align:center;Color:Black'><b>Text Here</b></div>"
This will resolve your leading/trailing spaces issue and give you the additional benefit of keeping all of your images the same width.
