Ella’s Kitchen revolutionises the frozen category with launch of BIG KIDS range

4 October 2018


Ella’s Kitchen grows up with the launch of BIG KIDS; a range of premium and tasty frozen food, created especially for kids. The ten SKUS for big kids and four puree SKUS for little ones are packed full of vegetables and are made with organic and sustainably sourced ingredients. Ella’s Kitchen BIG KIDS is available in TESCO only.

Ella’s Kitchen, the UK’s leading baby food brand is moving into the frozen aisle for the first time in its 12 year history with the launch of Ella’s Kitchen BIG KIDS, a delicious new frozen food range created especially from weaning babies up to BIG KIDS at eight years old. It has worked in partnership with Tesco to launch the range after identifying a desire for tasty and convenient options at kids mealtimes.

The range is the first that Ella’s has created in the frozen food category, and has been designed especially for kids, with colourful packaging and kid-sized portions. Sure to be the star on any plate, each recipe is made using organic and sustainably sourced ingredients, and is packed with vegetables, with no added sugar, or artificial colours, flavours or preservatives and offers a number of gluten free options; making it super tasty for grown up kids.

The 14 SKUs are ideal for busy families and cover a range of occasions; from quick and easy mealtimes, snack time munchies in kids’ lunch boxes or weaning. There are even vegetable bursts to help pack an extra veggie punch into mealtimes.

Some hero products sure to be snuck into grocery trolleys by playful mitts include: 

  • Chicken + Veggie Nuggets: made with British chicken breast, boosted with 4 types of veggies and wrapped up in crunchy gluten free breadcrumbs.
  • Cheesey Croquettes blended with cauliflower for a tasty twist, all wrapped up in crunchy, gluten free breadcrumbs, a delicious vegetarian option.
