My sample shots with the light tent... using ikea table lamp..

Nice try, but i am not sure if you realise that all your shots are under exposed! I believe you are using a white backdrop, but from my PC, it looks totaly gray!

Pump up your exposure by 1.5 - 2 stops

it has nothing got to do with white balance. it is the exposure that give you the problem.

Anyway, since that you have the light tent. you can learn more. Remmber that you need a light meter to help you to get an accurate measurement. good luck.
