Our plate was designed to bring together the best of both worlds, a premium ceramic eating surface with the practicality of a removable silicone sleeve. The divided ceramic plate makes it easy to serve a variety of foods and textures, while the silicone base adds grip and suction for those wonderfully messy early meals.

As your little one grows, simply remove the silicone sleeve and continue using the ceramic plate on its own. It’s one plate designed to grow alongside them, from their very first tastes to more independent mealtimes.

Our plate is designed to grow with your little one. It can be used from the beginning of their solids journey, typically around 6 months, once they’re developmentally ready to start solid foods... and continue well beyond the baby stage.

During those early, messier months, the silicone sleeve and suction base help keep the plate secure while your baby explores new foods and practices self feeding. As they grow and become more confident at the table, the silicone sleeve can be removed and the ceramic plate can be used on its own.

Our plate combines high quality ceramic with food grade silicone to give you the best of both materials. Food is served directly on the ceramic plate, while the removable silicone sleeve wraps around the outside and provides a secure suction base underneath.

All materials used are food safe, non toxic, BPA free, and lead free... giving you peace of mind about what comes into contact with your little one’s food.

We chose ceramic because we wanted the surface your little one eats from every day to feel just as thoughtful as the food you put on it.

Ceramic is durable, easy to clean, and naturally resistant to absorbing odors, flavors, and stains... something that can happen over time with some plastic and silicone feeding products. It also gives little ones the experience of eating from a real dish from the very beginning.

By pairing ceramic with a protective silicone sleeve and suction base, our plate brings together the feel and longevity of ceramic with the practicality parents need during those wonderfully messy early meals.

The silicone sleeve features four suction cups underneath the plate to help keep it securely in place during mealtime. Simply place the plate on a clean, smooth, flat surface and press down gently to create suction.

The suction helps reduce sliding, tipping, and those all too familiar plates headed for the floor... while still allowing you to easily lift the plate when mealtime is over.

For the strongest hold, make sure both the suction cups and the surface underneath are clean and dry before use.

Absolutely! Our plate is designed for every stage of your little one’s solids journey... from smooth purées and thicker mashes to soft finger foods and eventually family meals.

The three divided sections make it easy to offer different foods, flavors, and textures side by side... whether you’re following baby led weaning, starting with purées, or using a combination of both.

However you choose to introduce solids, the plate is designed to meet your little one right where they are.

Like any ceramic dish, the plate can break if dropped onto a hard surface. The silicone sleeve adds a layer of protection around the ceramic, helping cushion everyday bumps and falls... but it does not make the plate completely break proof.

We recommend checking the plate regularly for chips, cracks, or other damage and discontinuing use if any damage is found.

Yes! Both the ceramic plate and silicone sleeve are dishwasher safe... and you can leave the sleeve on during the wash cycle or remove it if desired.

The plate is also microwave safe, so you can conveniently warm your little one’s food right on the plate. We recommend leaving the silicone sleeve on when microwaving, as ceramic can become hot when heated and the sleeve provides a more comfortable surface for handling.

As with any dish heated in the microwave, always check the temperature of both the plate and food before serving to your little one.

Caring for your plate is simple. For everyday cleanup, wash with warm, soapy water or place it in the dishwasher.

For a deeper clean, the silicone sleeve can be removed so you can wash the ceramic plate and sleeve separately... just make sure both pieces are completely clean and dry before putting them back together.

To keep your plate looking its best, avoid abrasive scrubbers or harsh cleaners that could damage the ceramic finish.
