Vegetable Baby Food

This baby food combines vegetables with brown rice, cooked and strained to a smooth purée suitable for infants being introduced to solid foods. It provides a gentle, easy-to-swallow texture appropriate for early feeding stages.

Vegetable-and-grain purées are a common starting point for babies transitioning from milk to solids, offering a mild flavour that helps develop a taste for vegetables early. The inclusion of brown rice adds body to the purée and provides a source of energy.

These products are formulated to be gentle on developing digestive systems, with no added salt, sugar, or strong seasonings.

How it's made

Vegetables and brown rice are cooked until very soft, then blended and strained to remove any lumps, fibres, or pieces too large for an infant. The resulting smooth purée is heat-treated for food safety, then sealed in jars or pouches under sterile conditions to ensure a long shelf life without the need for preservatives.
