Gooseberry
Gooseberries can be introduced as early as 6 months once your baby has started solids. They are a tart, nutrient-dense fruit that provides a unique flavor profile to help expand your baby's palate.

Goed om te weten
Dit voedingsmiddel kan verslikkingsgevaar opleveren voor baby's. Bereid het in een grootte en textuur die bij de leeftijd past, en houd je baby tijdens het eten altijd in de gaten.
Because they are small and round, gooseberries pose a significant choking hazard if served whole. You must always slice them into quarters lengthwise before serving to ensure they are safe for your baby to eat.
Tip
If the berries are too tart for your baby, try pairing them with naturally sweet fruits like mashed banana or cooked pear to balance the acidity.
