Review: Kiddilicious crunchy nibbles

                
L is a very fussy eater and I always try to find something new to see if I can push it a little bit further.  
For the past couple of weeks we have been trying Kiddilicious crunchy peas and sweetcorn nibbles and crunchy grape nibbles suitable from 12 months + (£0.60p. individual pack in selected supermarkets- Asda, Tesco, Boots).

We have started with crunchy peas and sweetcorn as it's something L would never consider eating. 

"Peas and sweetcorn freeze dried into melt-in-your-mouth nibbles
We take tasty, colourful peas and sweetcorn and then simply take out the water to give a light, melty texture that dissolves easily in the mouth. 100% veggies with absolutely nothing else added".

 I didn't know what I expected to see, I guess that they will look completely different, that L would be so confused by what it is that would enjoy eating it. But in reality crunchy peas and sweetcorn were a dryer, smaller,lighter in colour and texture version of sweetcorn and peas as we know them, which put L off from wanting to taste them at all. She has tried to nibble on sweetcorn but peas completely put her off. We had several attempts and only one successful, but I guess the more I try the more accepting she could be.

With crunchy grapes though we had a completely different reaction. 

"Grapes freeze dried into melt-in-your-mouth slices
We take tasty, colourful grapes and then simply take out the water to give a light, melty texture that dissolves easily in the mouth. 100% fruit with absolutely nothing else added".

At first she wasn't sure what it was and played with it scattering dried grapes on the kitchen floor, the next day L was hungrier and more adventurous and had few grapes at a time. To make it easier for toddlers to crunch on grapes without chocking Kiddilicous pre-cut grapes into halves which is a great help. As always I have tried crunchy grapes myself, I personally would add them to a yogurt or similar but L didn't mind them as they were.

Even thought 1 pack is deemed to be used at once I have noticed that L prefers to have a little bit and leaves the rest for another day, which is a little bit impractical if you are on the go as the contents will go everywhere, that's the only downside I have found.

Review: Kiddilicious wafers

Weaning is a very messy business, sometimes I have to clean highchair, floor, L, L's clothes and even myself. Sometimes I have to do the same when L is snacking, until recently! 

Kiddilicious have kindly offered to review wafers, which come in 3 different flavours- blueberry, banana and carrot.

We understand that first tastes are more intense for little ones which is why our rice wafers, with their subtle fruit or vegetable flavours, are ideal for developing taste buds.
 

We have received few packs (each pack had 2 wafers inside) of each flavour. 

I am really surprised but L liked all the flavours, including carrot one. I have tried the wafers myself, they are very light, dissolve easily in a mouth and very easy to break in case your little one want to have just a half of the wafer.

Wafers leave less mess than a usual rice cake and don't leave any marks on clothing at all.

If you look at the ingredients content you will find that they have contain sugar and salt, which is not ideal.

Having said that as L is a big fan of Kiddilicious wafers I have bought 3 boxes for when we are out and about (each includes 10 twin packs) which were on offer in Tesco at £1,50, usual price £2.

I always have a pack with me in a bag or in my pocket as it seems to sooth and occupy L when is is a bit fussy.

If you are not worried about wafers containing sugar and salt please consider buying them as they are suitable for babies from 6 months and gluten free.
