    Chew chew! Next stop new toddler range!

    To keep up with the insatiable appetite of our growing babies, we are launching a deliciously tasty toddler range aimed at the 10+ month age group.  With the same Plum ethos of ‘real food for babies, not just baby food’, the toddler meals include yummy adult style recipes, packed with sumptuous flavours and more ‘lumpy’ textures for babies to chew chew! and get their new teeth around. 

    Susie used inspiration from family holidays in France and Italy to come up with the new range.  More adventurous ingredient choices such as ditalini pasta, aubergine and olive oil, give babies a taste of things to come.  They also come in larger 200g single servings in handy reusable bowls and contain more substantial protein and carbohydrate levels, to provide babies with the extra nutrients and energy as they start to get moving and discover the world for themselves.

    The three tantalising and 100% organic, natural ‘superfood’ toddler recipes include:

    Aubergine and sweet red pepper provencal

    This exciting mix of flavours packed into one little pot, creates a delicious and wholesome meal that will ensure smiles all round. The rich flavour of aubergine is the perfect complement to the tantalizingly sweet red peppers.

    Root vegetable and beef ragout

    A rich blend of organic root vegetables with succulent beef is commbined to provide babies with all the nutritional goodness they could possibly need. The purposefully ‘lumpy’ texture of the ragout gives babies a perfect opportunity to put their new chewing skills to the test!

    Ditalini pasta with pesto and super greens

    This delectable combination of pasta with basil pesto and nutritious vegetables guarantees a happy,  healthy baby and introduces them to the wonderful world of super greens – which are full of essential vitamins and minerals. 

    Our new toddler range has been developed in a direct response to demand by Plum mums to keep their growing babies hungry tummies happy.  The soft, puree weaning 4+ month range that starts all babies off on the right track, then the ‘fork mash’ texture of the 7+ month recipes, this more textured, toddler specific range will certainly satisfy their increasing appetites and give them everything they need nutritionally. We have weaned over 2 million babies since we launched in 2006 and we can’t wait to see our Plum generation of toddlers with a satisfied smile on their face.

    The toddler range will be available from Waitrose on 22nd September, and then Boots and Sainsburys later in the year with an RRP of £1.99 for a 200g single serve bowl.

    Can’t wait to try it out on my son!

    Anja Harwood says:

    Excellent news! Will be at my local Waitrose on the 22nd. They had better stock it…..

    I think your new toddler range is a great idea. My son Valentino who is now 18 months absolutley loved Plum baby food and I loved the goodness he was getting from it, it was a shame as he got older and needed a larger meal/variety that Plum didnt offer one as I would have definatley continued with buying them for him. I firmly beleive that the recipies Plum offer are the reason that Valentino eats such a wide variety of foods today there isnt a food that he dislikes so Thank you.

    Chris says:

    Thank goodness! Just what I’ve been waiting for and can’t wait to try. Are they gluten free and if not are you thinking about launching any G/F products for those with allergies / potential allergies?

    My baby son Emilio is 9 months and loves your baby range. I’m so glad you’re now doing a toddler range for him to grow into!

    Clare Delve says:

    Am delighted to hear that you’re bringng out a toddler range. My 10 month ol loves the 7 month + range but is starting to need a bit more texture. More more more please!

    David Boon says:

    Thank god for sum ‘lumpy’ plumbs , sick of the dog food thats only available at the mo from heinz & Cow/Gate. Been lumpying up your 7month + stuff for a while now with other ingrediants. A lumpy spinach, salmon & parsnip would be very welcome for my 1 year old little girl, she loves it

    You have answered my prayers, at the minute my son Max is eating 2 pots of plum per meal, he just loves all the wonderful flavours, but with the new range he will only need 1. just got back from holiday and yes you guessed it i took about 40 pots of plum in my luggage and we had a great time and didnt have have to worry about meal times!

    Niomi says:

    Brilliant! I was wondering how long I could drag out 7+ months on toddler!
    Look forward to trying it… well if they eat it I have to too!

    Cara says:

    Great - hope my local Waitrose has plenty in stock!

    Leanne says:

    excellent news! my daughter is 8months and i just started her on plum foods she enjoys them more then anything else ive tried her on before. I was worried that she wouldn’t get to enjoy these meals for very long but now you have the new range coming i no longer have that worry. THANK - YOU!!!!!

    Kerry says:

    Hooray!! My little boy is 1 now and if it wasn’t for Plum and Ellas Kitchen I think he may have starved!! Glad to see at least one of you have decided to up your range!!!

    Andrea says:

    Very disappointed that not one flavour is dairy free - otherwise I would definitely have bought as my little one just loves the plum range.

    Rachel says:

    Andrea,
    Please be assured that we are aware of this, and of how many parents use us because of this reason. We are working on some more recipes for this range and hopefully we can make one of them dairy free for you.
    I will pass your comments on to our development team.

    Many Thanks

    Rachel - Plum Baby x

    Laura says:

    Thank you so much - my son already loves all three! I was delighted to see them in Waitrose as he has grown up on Plum Baby - I too was ‘lumping up’ the other
    varieties with pasta, rice or vegetables. The new size is brilliant too.
    More, much more please!

    Emma says:

    My son loves all his baby plum meals he cant get enough of them! Was pleased to read you are introducing a 10 mth plus range but dissapointed to learn that waitrose and sainsburys are the only supermarkets named as stocking it as those stores are no where near where i live in Cumbria and we only have a small Boots store in the town. Is there any sign of Tesco, Asda or Morrisons stocking it to any time soon! Thanks x

    Nicole says:

    My daughter has loved all of your recipes since I discovered them with her when she was about 7 months old, her favourite has always been the strong taste of the salmon with spinach, which is the reason I think that she loves eating raw red onion!!

    She now loves the new range, will there be more soon with more fish to try? Hope so!!! Keep up the great work!!

    Emma says:

    My 11 month old loves the new range, thank you! I was beginning to look at the glass jars and think that he would have to have those, but now he doesn’t! Can we have some more recipes please?!!

    rachel says:

    i have just recieved my plum taster pack with the new range, my twin boys are now 10months and have loved the new toddler range but now we just have to wait till they start to stock it in the shops ! thank you plum organics we love your new range malachi & cole

    nicole says:

    Still cannot find new 10 mth range in any Boots within vacinity( it’s not online either!) will need to trek to Waitrose!!
    Jack who is 9 mths absolutely loves the plum pots especially the 7 mth lamb with sweet potato and red cabbage chicken!!
    He is very greedy and delighted when I produce them so cannot wait to get my hands on the new range for him as I’m sure he cannot wait to get his gums and few teeth round them!!!
    for Jack if I haven’t made it or bought your fantastic food he will not touch other brands- for him it’s Plum or Mum!!!
