Frequently Asked Questions
What age are your meals suitable for?
Our meals are designed for babies from 6 months+, supporting both traditional weaning and baby-led weaning (BLW). The textures and ingredients suit different developmental stages:
✔ 6+ months – Soft, easy-to-mash textures for early food introduction.
✔ 9+ months – More variety in texture to encourage chewing and independent eating.
✔ 12+ months – Nutrient-dense, flavourful meals suitable for toddlers transitioning to family-style eating.
Every child develops at their own pace, so we recommend introducing meals based on your baby’s readiness and comfort with solids. If unsure, consult your paediatrician or healthcare professional for personalised guidance.
How can I adjust the texture of your meals?
Our meals have soft, fork-mashable textures, making them easy to adapt based on your baby’s stage and preferences. If you’d like a creamier consistency, you can:
✔ Mash with a fork for a smoother texture.
✔ Stir in greek yoghurt, breast milk, or puréed vegetables for a richer, creamier consistency.
Check our our "serving suggestions" under each meal for detailed recommendations for adjusting texture and perfect pairing options.
