A: There’s a lot of confusion around this subject, but these are the facts… All British and European manufacturers of food for children under the age of 3 years old must comply with very strict legislation controlled by the EU. The number of additives and permitted ingredients that can be used is tightly controlled and applies equally whether the food is non-organic or organic.
The most recent EU legislation specifies that all baby food (organic and non-organic) must now contain less than 10 parts per billion of food pesticide residue. This is so infinitely small, it is to all intents and purposes absent. Interestingly Soil Association accredited producers do not even work to these levels! Therefore to comply with the law, our food, whilst it’s not labelled organic, has almost non-existent levels of pesticide residue.
A: At Kiddylicious we are proud of our range of snacks for young children. They are "healthier than" alternatives to many other types of snacks and confectionery aimed at infants and they are sold in portion controlled packs making them a very convenient choice for parents.

Wherever possible, our snacks only contain the sugar that is naturally present in the fruits and vegetables which they are made from. Our Kiddylicious Apple Wriggles, for example, do not contain any added sugar. Each portion controlled pack contains 7.3g of naturally occurring sugar. In comparison, an average medium sized fresh apple contains 10.4g of sugar. A pack of our Kiddylicious Apple Wriggles therefore contains 30% less sugar than a fresh apple, yet they still provide the same level of beneficial minerals, including calcium, iron and potassium. They also have a low glycaemic load, which means the blood sugar level does not rise significantly after eating our Wriggles, and young children do not experience a sugar rush, followed minutes later by a sugar crash.
In products where we need to add sugar we keep the quantity to the absolute minimum possible. We choose to use sugar instead of sweeteners as our customers tell us they prefer food that does not include artificial additives.
