Warming Weaning this Winter…

By January 18, 2025 Article

As a mother and reviewer for parents-news.co.uk, I have had the pleasure of introducing my little one to Kendamil’s range of baby porridges. Our experience has been overwhelmingly positive, and I am delighted to share our thoughts on these exceptional products.

Natural and Nutritious Ingredients

Kendamil’s commitment to using high-quality, natural ingredients is evident in their baby porridges. The absence of added sugars and artificial additives provides peace of mind, knowing that my baby is consuming wholesome and nutritious meals. The inclusion of real fruits and grains not only enhances the flavour but also contributes to a balanced diet. Kendamil

Award-Winning Taste and Quality

It’s reassuring to know that Kendamil’s baby porridges have been recognised for their excellence. The Classic Fruit Cereals, for instance, won GOLD in the Best Baby Breakfast Food category at the MadeForMums Awards 2021. This accolade reflects the brand’s dedication to quality and taste, as voted by UK mums and their babies.

Variety of Flavours

The range of flavours, including Banana, Creamy, and Berry, keeps mealtime exciting for my little one. Each variant offers a unique taste experience, and my baby has shown enthusiasm for all of them. The variety ensures that we can rotate flavours to keep breakfast interesting and enjoyable.

Easy Preparation

As a busy mum, I appreciate the convenience of Kendamil’s porridges. The preparation is straightforward, requiring just the addition of warm water. This simplicity makes it easy to serve a nutritious meal, even on hectic mornings.

Weaning Porridges & Rice

Kendamil’s award-winning and delicious weaning range, includes everything from smooth baby rice, porridges and savoury bakes. Like its advanced infant formula, the brands Classic and Organic weaning range contains absolutely no GMOs or palm oil. Certified vegetarian, they contain valuable nutrients such as fibre, vitamins, and minerals and absolutely no added sugar (All of the sugars found in Kendamil porridges naturally occur from the real fruit and vegetables). Made with a variety of grains and fresh fruit and vegetables, the range is bursting with essential vitamins and minerals to support baby’s healthy development. The smooth baby rice offers an option to introduce textures from 4 months where recommended by a medical professional, while the delicious collection of six porridges including scrumptious flavours such as apple & blackcurrant, banana and berry, will promise flavourful first tastes from 6 months.

A Formula Trend Growing in Popularity…

Goat Follow-on Milk &  Goat Toddler Milk 

Goat’s Milk formula is a relatively new category, but there has been a steady rise in the use of goat’s milk formula since its arrival ten years ago as it is fast becoming recognised as a safe, effective and gentler alternative to cow’s milk

Becoming undoubtedly more popular in recent years, awareness has grown around the benefits over traditional cow’s milk formula with some research showing it is a gentler option for tiny tummies. The  British formula brand has developed an advanced recipe, specially formulated using whole goats’ milk, sourced from European goat farms and plant-based, DHA.  Boasting a naturally creamy taste, yet remaining gentle on infant’s tummies, the recipe uses significantly reduced levels of vegetable oil, which typically forms 100% of the fat content in other formula brands and unlike market competitors, Kendamil Goat Milk  features  no palm oil, fish oil or soy. Not only Kosher, Halal and Vegetarian approved, Kendamil Goat uniquely boasts a higher percentage of goat whey compared to its supermarket competitor – The award-winning milk is available as Follow on milk (6-12 months) and Toddler Milk (12-36 month)  Kendamil
