1001 WAYS TO ENJOY POPOTE
Everything you need to know about my Popote
Can the products be frozen?
Our (delicious) little purées are cooked and then sterilised (heated to a high temperature) to preserve them.
You can freeze them, provided you follow a few guidelines (though the ingredients may lose a little flavour):
– Don’t put the pouch straight into the freezer, as freezing may affect its structure.
– First pour the contents into a suitable container (an ice cube tray, for example), or cook with them before freezing.
– Never refreeze a product once it has thawed.
Parent tip: use our little pouches to make recipes for your baby, then freeze them to keep them for longer!
How long does a pouch keep once opened?
Once opened, our baby food pouches can be kept in the fridge for up to 48 hours for fruit, vegetables and yoghurt-style blends, and up to 36 hours for meat, fish and little meal pouches, provided they are stored hygienically with the cap firmly closed.
Should I add fat to your products?
Our pouches contain no added fat (except the two Little Meals pouches).
And as you’ve probably guessed, babies need fat! You can therefore add one teaspoon of oil a day to the purée between 4 and 12 months, and two teaspoons between 12 and 36 months, after heating it up.
My baby is allergic to cow’s milk protein
None of our pouches contain traces of cow’s milk proteins, apart from our plain and vanilla creamy blends, porridge, little meals and possibly our beef and veal pouches.
But don’t worry! We’ve thought of that too with our plant-based creamy blends: plenty for babies with cow’s milk protein allergy to discover in Oat & Apple and Coconut & Banana (please note that they’re low in calcium).
Psst, all our machines are cleaned before each new production run, so there’s no risk of cross-contamination.
