Why Frozen?
Fresh is best and frozen is fresh! Freezing is nature’s way of preserving food. Nothing is fresher than homemade. However, that’s not always practical for busy parents. By freezing our children’s food we keep it fresh without the need to subject it to temperatures of up to 180 degrees centigrade to pasteurise it. Our meals are handmade in small batches to ensure quality then frozen to seal in freshness, colour, flavour, and most importantly, to maintain nutritional quality.
Do you add anything into your foods?
No, we do not add any nasties like preservatives, fillers, stabilizers, colours, salt or sugar. We only use real whole foods, all the ingredients in our kitchen are the same as the ones in your kitchen.
Are the pots safe?
Yes, our pots are tamper-proof, BPA free and recyclable.
How long do the meals last frozen?
All meals will keep in the freezer for several months. Please see individual packs for specific dates Once thawed they will last in the fridge for up to forty-eight hours.
Not only can you be sure your baby is getting the best possible nutrition, but it’s incredibly convenient. Your order is cooked, frozen, and delivered right to you.
Is all produce organic?
All our meat and vegetables are organic. Our fish is better than organic as it's wild. Fish is always certified by the Marine Stewardship Council.

Workshops
What will I get out of a class?
Our workshops are designed to give parents confidence and skills when it comes to feeding their child. We show you how to get your child eating family foods, rather than having to cook a separate meal for them. It’s a great opportunity to meet other parents, the classes are very sociable. Get top tips and nutritional advice relevant to each stage of your child’s development. You will leave with printouts of everything covered in the class and all the food you make during class.
Where are the workshops held?
Usually workshops run from our kitchen in Bishopston, Bristol. We can come to your house if you would like an individual or group session with friends. For prices of custom lessons please get in touch with us hello_at_babybites.co.uk
What times are the Workshops?
We run each workshop several times a month. Please click here to see our list of classes with forthcoming times and dates.
I’d like to come to a workshop but none of the times on the calendar work for me.
Get in touch with us and we’ll see if we can organise a class at a time that suits you.
How much are the workshops
The workshop are from £15 - £30 per class. The weaning course is £64, which is a saving of 10% off the usual price.
I’d like to book the weaning course but have no idea when I’ll be ready for stages 2 and 3.
You do not have to choose what dates you will take the workshops when you pay for the course. You can see how weaning is going and wait until you and your baby are ready to arrange coming to the next stage.
Do I need to bring anything?
No, just yourself and your child(ren) if you like. All the organic ingredients, equipment and containers for you to take the food home in will be supplied. Refreshments will also be made available.
Will the workshops work for us if my baby or child has a special diet?
When you sign up for a workshop let us know of any special dietary requirements, these can be accommodated for within reason. At Baby Bites we think it’s particularly important to include families who may not find their needs catered ordinarily.
Can my child come to the workshop with me?
Yes, there will be a play area set up for them. There will be lots of yummy food for them to try.
Will I get to cook at the workshop?
It’s a combination of demonstration and hands on cookery; you’ll cook 4 different recipes in total.
How many people will be in the workshop?
We can take a maximum of 8 in our kitchen. If you would like to do the course with a bigger group of friends, usually it’s suggested that the group is split in two and they have consecutive workshops on the same day.
What do the classes cover?
You will be shown several easy recipes appropriate to your child’s age. There will be a discussion about feeding and nutrition, giving you a chance to talk to other parents with children at a similar stage as you. You will get lots of useful tips and nutritional advice. Get lots of ideas on how to get your whole family eating healthily.
