Is Freeze Drying Safe for Toddlers?
Absolutely!!! Freeze Drying is a natural preservation method that keeps food safe and shelf-stable without artificial preservatives. It simply takes out the water but none of the goodness.
What is Freeze Dried Toddler Food?
Freeze Dried toddler food is made by removing moisture from the meals once they are cooked using a gentle method. First, the meals are frozen and then a vacuum is created. The meal is then gradually heated and the water is taken out from the meal. This gentle process preserves nutrients, flavour and texture without the need for additives.
Does Freeze Dried food contain preservatives or additives?
Absolutely not! Our products are made from wholesome and natural ingredients with no added preservatives, colours or artificial flavours.
Is Freeze Dried food suitable for fussy eaters?
Yes - for sure! The natural taste and texture are appealing to toddlers and can add their favourite foods to our meals if you are using More Toddler Meals for the first time.
Does Freeze Drying affect the nutritional value?
Minimal nutritional loss occurs, unlike other preservation techniques. Typically freeze drying retains 97% of the original nutritional value.
Are your products organic?
Our meals contain some organic ingredients (e.g. tomatoes) but are not certified organic as it would have increased the price of the meals to be prohibitively expensive. Our ingredients are sourced from sustainable farms and conform with stringent pesticide controls.
Do you use common allergens?
We clearly label all allergens so please check the product description as all our meals either have allergens added or may contain allergens.
Is Freeze Dried food high in sugar or salt?
No. All of our products must be low in salt and sugar as we believe in offering toddlers the best possible meals like you would at home.
Do More Toddler Meals contain Protein & Fibre?
Yes - lots! All of our meals must be a source of fibre and protein as we believe toddlers need fibre for healthy gut development and protein to build muscle.
How do I prepare More Toddler Meals?
Simply add hot water directly to the pouch, stir and let it sit for 5 minutes. Check that the taste and texture is safe for your toddler and serve. It is as easy as that!
How is Freeze Dried food different from other ambient toddler and baby foods?
Other ambient products (like jars or pouches) rely on heat based processing or additives, which can reduce nutritional value and alter taste, whereas freeze drying locks in the original flavour, texture and vitamins with no preservatives.
How do I store Freeze Dried Food?
Our fantastic products are ambient so they can just be stored in a cool, dry place. One opened, reseal as needed but please consume once prepared. They are not suitable for subsequent freezing
How many portions are in each pouch?
It all depends on your little one's appetite. Generally, one pouch is sufficient for one toddler. If they are a big eater then you could add some finger foods or other ingredients (e.g. veggies, meats or pulses). For smaller tummies, you can always spoon out some dried meal, rehydrate it in a bowl and serve. The pouch can be resealed and used another time (we'd advise within a week).
Are More Toddler Meals good for travelling or outings?
100% they are! We've designed them to make it as easy as possible to feed toddlers, no matter where they are. You can take a flask with you or ask for some hot water from any food outlet.
Sustainability
Is Freeze Drying environmentally friendly?
Whilst the freeze drying process is energy intensive, once complete no further energy requirements are needed for storage. As they are also incredibly lightweight they use far less fuel to transport in bulk compared with heavier products.
Are the pouches recyclable?
Yes they can be recycled with soft plastics at suitable locations (e.g. supermarkets). Due to the nature of the product we couldn't use paper packaging but we understand the pouches will be kerbside recyclable by 31 March 2027.
