HI,

Can anyone tell me where I can stock cubes to add to baby food? My last baby I used annabel karmel stock cubes, that had no salt but the shop has stopped doing them. The closest are organic stock cubes called kallo, the ingredients say sea salt, I wonder if these are safe to use.

Please help.

Thanks!

HI,

I started weaning my 6 month old last weekend and have given her a variety of finger foods so far but her coordination isn't very good and she finds it hard to get things in her mouth. Normally her fist or fingers are going in her mouth instead of the food. She is really keen to eat and if I hold it for her she will lean forwards and suck or try to ear the food. How can I encourage her to pick it up herself? Is it ok to hold it for her or will it cause problems in the long run? She gets very frustrated when she can't eat the food herself.

Please help.

I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.

Thanks!

Hey everyone! Just stumbled across a really cool, hassle-free recipe.

Gina's Flourless Chocolate Cake

Preheat oven to 180 С.

Spray a 23 cm springform pan with baking spray. Line the bottom of the pan with a circle of parchment paper and spray again.

In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the chocolate and butter, constantly stirring until fully incorporated. Remove from heat and set aside.

In a large bowl add the sugar and eggs. Using a handheld mixer beat together until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. While mixing, slowly add cocoa powder, salt, vanilla extract, and brandy. Add the chocolate mixture and blend until just combined. Pour batter into prepared pan.

Bake in the center of the preheated oven for about 50 minutes or until a thin crust forms on the top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with few crumbs attached. Remove and cool in the pan on a bakers rack. Remove the sides of the pan and dust with powdered sugar and arrange seasonal berries in a pleasing fashion on and around the cake. Slice and serve with Whipped Cream.

Whipped Cream:
With a hand-held mixer, beat the cream until peaks soft peaks form. Add the sugar and brandy and beat until well combined.

So, um... here is the oven baked potato tortilla my daughter loves:
