Food

What if my little one doesn’t like the food?

This is always possible! For Bubs we recommend to continously expose baby to even foods they dont like on the first or even second try. It can take up to 15 times for a baby to accept a new food!

For toddlers, we totally get it! More for Mum, Dad or if you have a cute pup :)

Le Puree vs store-bought - what’s the difference?

Our meals are freshly made to order each week in Sydney, using whole food ingredients with no additives or preservatives. We snap-freeze them to lock in nutrients and deliver them to your door. Store-bought baby food often undergoes high-heat pasteurization, reducing nutrients, and can sit on shelves for up to 2 years, often with misleading ingredient labels. We’re committed to transparency and freshness for your little one’s optimal growth.

Are your meals allergen free?

Our meals are not completely allergen-free, as we include common allergens like nuts and dairy in certain recipes based on recent evidence-backed studies. Introducing allergens early can help support tolerance in babies. However, we clearly label all allergens and offer a variety of options to suit different dietary needs. Always check the ingredients if you have specific concerns!

What age can my child eat finger foods & toddler meals?

Finger foods are great to offer when starting solids which are at or around 6 months of age.. We recommend soft and mushable foods that your baby can hold in their fist. Make sure to always monitor the baby when serving finger foods. Check out our starting solids bundle which include great finger food options!

Is Le Puree compatible with baby led weaning?

Our finger foods can be eaten anytime after 6 months as part of baby led weaning. However we do recommend supervision if practising BLW.

Why should I subscribe to a meal plan?

We wanted to take the guesswork/stresswork out of starting solids with your bub. 

We teamed up with paediatric dieticians and created a meal plan that exposes your Bub to a curated variety of foods, flavours and textures. We rotate our menu every two weeks based on the freshest ingredients!  

Our meal plans grow with your baby through both the flavours and texture options. One click and your delivery will arrive every 2 weeks with a new batch of fresh-made, organic food for bub to stash in your freezer. Making convenience that much more convenient. :)

How long can I store the food?

Our meals are made fresh weekly and snap frozen to preserve all the freshness (and important nutrients!). Meals last up to 4 months in the freezer and 48 hours in the fridge. We do not recommend refreezing after a meal has defrosted.

Are your meals dietitan approved?

Yes! They sure are :) Our meals are designed and curated by our in-house dietitian - an expert in infant nutrition.

What is the first 1000 days?

The first 1,000 days refers to a child's life from the moment they are conceived until they have reached 2 years of age (24 months). This is a time when your bubs brain, body and immune system grows and develops significantly.

Are your meals certified organic?

We aim to use as many organic ingredients as possible, but availability can vary week to week. All our produce is locally sourced and 100% Australian grown. We always use 100% organic, hormone-free, and free-range meat, and avoid conventional produce from the "dirty dozen" (the top twelve with the highest pesticide levels).

For any questions, reach out to yourvillage@lepuree.com. Transparency and food safety are our top priorities!

Starting Solids

How can I tell my baby is ready for solids?

Babies are typically ready at or around the 6 month mark for starting solids. We like to look at the “signs of readiness”, rather than a numerical age because this can vary from baby to baby. 

The key signs to look for are;

Sitting Up: They can sit up well with support.

Good Head Control: They can hold their head steady.

Curiosity: They show interest in your food.

Mouthing: They frequently bring objects to their mouth.

Loss of Tongue Thrust Reflex: They don’t push food out with their tongue anymore.

How much food should I offer my baby to start? 

Start with small amounts—a few teaspoons—and gradually increase as they get used to eating solids. Their primary source of food will be breast milk or formula. This is a time to get them exposed to beautiful flavours and moments with you!

My baby refuses to eat

Babies refuse to eat for a number of reasons, and very few of them are within our control. The division of responsibility tells us that our job as their caregiver is to offer nutritious, stable and suitable meals. Their job as the baby is to decide what and how much they’d like to eat. This works for 99% of the time (e.g. when babies eat some meals, and refuse the next). 

If your baby is past 6 months and refuses to eat anything at any meal, it’s worth chatting with your healthcare professional! After 6 months they do actually need some of the nutrients from solid food, so making sure that they have adequate nutrition while you work through any barriers is a great idea!

How much is a serving size for my baby?

Our portion sizes are 100g, which is 3 cubes. This is based on an average- and in order to get an average there are some bubs who eat more and some who eat less than our estimate. 

When they start solids, we anticipate a serve will be 1 cube, and by ~7-8 months they’ll be increasing to 2 cubes, and by 9-10 months we generally find that ubs are managing 3 cubes (or more!)

Remember that some meals they’ll eat much more than others, and they’ll tell us when they’ve had enough!

Milk before solids or solids before milk?

When starting, milk before solids!! Milk is their main source of nutrition and offers all their vitamins and minerals essential for growth. We suggest offering meals ~30-60 mins after a milk feed, so that they differentiate between the two, and that they’re maybe just hungry enough to try solids!

If bubs are still milk feeding after 12 months, this is when we recommend solids to be offered before milk. 

How do I serve your finger foods?

We mould and shape our finger foods so that they can be heated and served whole to your baby. You can modify into smaller pieces as baby develops more skills to pick up small pieces but they can  also be served whole which can be easier for the baby to manage.

When is the best time to offer solids?

The best time is around 5-6 months when baby is showing signs of readiness.

Do you have a starter pack?

Yes! Meet the Ultimate Starting Solids Bundle. Carefully curated to include our most nourishing and popular blends paired with BLW options.

Which texture should I choose for my baby?

All of our wholefood blends are recommended for 6+ months, however we do different textures by stages (Stage 1 - Smooth, Stage 2 - Textured, Stage 3 - Chunky).  Smooth is great for starting around the 6 month mark. As bub is enjoying their smooth blends, we recommend moving to textured which is typically around 8 months (plus or minus) and then soon after, chunky. Our chunky puree has lumps and bumps and small pieces, great for ~10 months.

How many meals a day should I offer my baby?

When starting solids, we suggest starting with 1 meal/d. This is because milk is their primary source of nutrition, and we just introduce solids to get them used to it. By 9 months old, we anticipate they’ll be consuming 2 meals/d as well as their milk schedule, and by 10-11 months, this will increase to 3 meals/d. 

When can I start finger foods?

Finger foods are great to offer when starting solids which are at or around 6 months of age.. We recommend soft and mushable foods that your baby can hold in their fist. Make sure to always monitor the baby when serving finger foods. Check out our starting solids bundle which include great finger food options!

What's the best way to heat your finger foods?

We recommend heating in small increments in the microwave or warmed up in the oven for best consistency. Remember to cover meals in the microwave with a paper towel or loose cover to ensure moisture isn't lost!
