Product Information

Full details

This Tilda Kids Sunshine Vegetable Rice is designed for parents seeking a convenient, healthy, and tasty meal option for their weaned little ones. Its key benefit is providing a nutritious, one-of-your-five-a-day meal packed with vegetables and rice, ready in minutes. A potential caveat is that it is intended for children already happily eating solid foods, not for initial weaning stages. This product features Basmati rice with butternut squash, sweetcorn, and carrots, offering a gentle and sunny flavor profile suitable for younger palates. It is gluten-free, vegetarian, and some variants are also dairy-free and vegan.
