FAQs

What age is the porridge suitable for?

Our porridge provides a soft texture and contains ingredients appropriate for babies from 8 months onwards.

Does your porridge contain preservatives?

No, our porridge does not contain any preservatives. The porridge undergoes a freeze-drying process during which moisture is removed from the food through a low-temperature dehydration process. This helps to preserve the flavours, textures, and nutrients without compromising the quality or safety of the food. The absence of moisture prevents the growth of bacteria and microorganisms, allowing our porridge to have a longer shelf life naturally, without the need for additional preservatives.

How do I prepare the porridge for my baby?

The porridge can be prepared by adding 80ml hot water to the contents of each packet, give it a quick stir and let it sit for 1 to 2 minutes. More hot water can be added until your desired consistency is achieved.

Can I refrigerate leftovers of the prepared porridge for later use?

We strongly recommend finishing an opened and prepared pouch of porridge in one sitting. However, it is generally safe to refrigerate leftovers of the prepared porridge for up to 24 hours. It is important to always ensure proper food storage and handle leftovers safely and hygienically.

What is the shelf life of each unopened sachet?

The best use period for an unopen sachet of porridge is 6 months and that will be close to 6 months from the date you purchase as we produce in small batches to keep our products current.
