35 days of beautifully
varied, fresh meals

The menu is carefully sequenced so that textures get more interesting, flavours get bolder, and allergens are introduced safely and systematically. For 5 weeks you won't have to think about what comes next.

The weaning journey

How the menu progresses

Each week builds carefully on the last. Here's what to expect.

Jo Lenz, Dietitian

Each day is planned by our dietitian Jo Lenz to give your baby the best nutritional start possible.

Week 1 · Days 1–7 7 meals

First Tastes

Single vegetables, pure & simple

We start with single bitter vegetable purées so your baby can get used to these flavours early. Each purée is paired with a matching finger food — so from day one, they're exploring texture and self-feeding at their own pace.

Monday's menu

Broccoli purée + a floret of broccoli finger food

Journey progress 20%
Week 2 · Days 8–14 7 meals

First Allergen

Egg introduced safely

Week two brings your baby's first allergen exposure: egg. We pair it with vegetables they already know, keeping things familiar while the new ingredient does its important work. More finger food variety is introduced too.

Egg introduced More bitter veg Soft finger foods
🥚

Thursday's menu

Sweet potato & egg purée + roasted red pepper finger food

Why introduce egg early? Early exposure is recommended by NHS allergy guidelines to reduce the risk of sensitivity developing. It stays in the diet every three days from here on.

Week 3 · Days 15–21 7 meals

Protein & Texture

Things get more interesting

Proteins arrive this week, and textures step up to slightly chunkier purées. Egg continues every three days. Your baby is now encountering a much wider range of flavours and learning how food can feel different.

Meat & carbs Egg (continued) Chunkier textures

Wednesday's menu

Lamb & potato purée + kiwi finger food

Why animal protein? It's an excellent source of iron and protein for your little one at this early stage.

Weeks 4 & 5 · Days 22–35 14 meals

Full Palate

Questions parents ask us

The full day-by-day menu is shared once your kit is confirmed — it covers all key allergens, progresses textures intentionally, and includes a different meal every single day. No repeats.

Yes. Our allergen sequence follows current NHS and BSACI guidance. Egg arrives in week two, fish in week 4, and gluten in week 5. Each allergen is introduced with a 3-day buffer so you can identify any reaction.

Food refusal is completely normal. Research shows babies may need 10–15 exposures to a new flavour before accepting it — which is exactly why our menu repeats ingredients across different meals.

Please reach out before ordering. Standard requirements we cater for: no dairy, no egg, and halal.

We deliver via our own private motorbike fleet across central London. Deliveries arrive before 10am with a 30-minute ETA notification.

Portions are sized for a baby starting weaning at around 6 months. The included menu guide has dietitian notes on portion expectations at each stage.
