Question re custard, jelly and rice pudding
in Baby
With custard, jelly and rice pudding, are they okay to have? Just that I have looked at the sugar levels in each and they seem quite high?! I have fed DD full fat custard twice now and she loves it but the sugar level is making me question whether she should be having it. If I can't give her these, I'm going to be even more stuck for ideas for dessert apart from yoghurt or fromage frais!!

I haven't given custard yet because i was a little concerned about the sugar levels. However i have given rice pudding and jelly.
I made my own rice pudding, it was really easy and actually really tasty without sugar! I just baked 2oz pudding rice, 1 pint of milk and some cinnamon for about 1.5 hours in the oven. Stirring halfway through to stir in the skin, and it came out really lovely and creamy. If you want, you could add a little sugar but i didn't feel it needed it, you can also add a fruit puree to sweeten it if you wanted.

I personally wouldn't give her shop bought custard/jelly etc.
