FAQs
At what age can babies have ice lollies?
These mango, banana, and butternut squash popsicles are generally suitable from around six months of age, once your baby is ready to start weaning onto solid foods. Every baby is different, so always check with your health visitor or GP before introducing new foods. If you haven't already introduced mango, banana, and butternut squash individually, you should do so before combining them. This way, if your baby has an allergic reaction or an upset tummy, you'll know exactly which ingredient caused it.
What’s the best way to introduce ice lollies to my baby?
Start by offering small bites or allowing your baby to lick the lolly to get used to the cool sensation and texture. You might begin with single-flavour options to help your baby become familiar with individual tastes. As they adjust, introduce multi-ingredient flavours for more variety.
Can babies experience brain freeze?
Yes, babies and young children can experience brain freeze, just like adults. To help prevent this, encourage your little one to enjoy ice lollies slowly, and always supervise them while they eat.
