It would appear you don't fully understand what White Balance is and/or your camera is still set for Automatic White Balance (AWB).

Here's a quick tutorial that should be of help.

It could be 1 of many things, light tent is not pure white (I would never use one) grey card is not 18% grey, camera is set incorrectly, expensive gear does not give perfect results unless you know how to use them

What kind of light did you use for the photo?
