Plum Baby Competition and Review



We always try hard to feed our kids healthily. It’s hard though and I freely admit that we have Fish- Fingers and Chips and Pizza on quite a regular basis alongside more healthy options. One of the things that I have really struggled with, is providing healthy breakfast cereals and snacks. Everyone wants to have a range of different things to eat and so providing the same breakfast cereal and the same range of snacks day in day out is a little bit dull. That’s were Plum baby have proved quite helpful as they offer a range of cereals and snacks which you can use in addition to the staples (such as organic raisins, fruit and malt loaf (random I know!)

We were given a selection of biscuits to test. I have to admit they tasted a little bit healthy to me, but I love Belgium chocolate chip, jaffa cakes and party rings. I have been spoilt, my children however, have not and are much more open to less sugary and more virtuous snacks. Plum baby biscuits use spelt wheat (which is a heritage wheat strangely of interest to me as an archaeologist as it is often found on archaeological sites) and grape juice to flavour them. You cant get much better than this because the sheer healthiness of this removes some of the guilt about giving them a biscuit.

The children enjoyed the Minky Moons, they were a good shape and size to give as a little treat after dinner. However, they absolutely loved the Oat Rounds with orange oil and oat ginger. In fact, so did I, they are positively scrummy.

Plum Baby is available in most supermarkets, so next time you get your shopping give them a try.

The folks over at Plum Baby have given me 15 samples of yummy 4 grain breakfast porridge to give away to my lovely readers.
