Do you give your child a pudding after their meals, and if so what?
Not necessarily a sweet pudding, for example Ella has a fruitapura pot after her lunch which is 100% fruit, so not exactly a stodgy cake! At tea time though, I'm looking for ideas.
Some days she has a yogurt, and she has been having the Heinz 7 month pudding jars but now she's a bit older, I'm wondering what to give her. She has a cooked meal for tea, and I don't want to fill her full of cake every day! Once in a while, no problem but I don't want her to expect it every meal.

Louis also has a fruitapura pot after his lunch, or a banana or grapes
After his dinner, he usually has a frube (the ones you can freeze), a mini ginger bread man, a jaffa cake, rice pudding, ambrosia custard pots, fruity jelly, apple crumble (his favourite), i think thats it lol. other times i'll just give him a mini fruit salad, with cream
he has various different things, usually what Harrison has to stop him from screaming lol.

Joshua isnt keen on puddings he will eat fruit and yoghurts but when it comes to sweet things he'd rather have 2 dinners and no pudding. Im not even sure what he likes, rice pudding and ambrosia pots he eats but he doesnt like cake. Oh he likes angel delight, but only banana flavour and if I put fresh banana's in it lol he will sometimes eat cheesecake as well.
I think most variety things have been mentioned, you could try trifle, angel delight cheesecake, you can get those little cheesecake/trifle pots ready made. Dont know what else to suggest chick, Joshua just has yoghurts after meals and fruit throughout the day. The other stuff is there for him but he chooses not to have it xxx

I give my lo truely fruits by cow and gate. They are suitable for children from 4 to 36 months. They are 100 % fruit (I think, lol) and come in a veriety of different flavours. They are 2.50 euros, but I often ring the cow and gate help line and they send me out money off vouchers.

I remember with Harry when he was little, I wuld make a hot pudding for everyone and all he wuld eat was just the custard, every last drop of it, but wuldnt touch the actual pudding! So i just started giving him the occasional bowl of custard, especially as it was winter then so it warmed him up a treat!
And my fav as a baby was banana's and custard, so simple but so yummy Lmao!
