Homemade Jelly Babies with Honey and Vitamin C
One of the simplest ways to incorporate vitamin C into your child’s diet is through vitamin gummies. Unfortunately, finding gummies that don’t contain glucose syrup, large amounts of sugar, or artificial flavorings can be quite a challenge. Even if you manage to find gummies sweetened with maltitol (not perfect, but better), kids often want to eat the whole package at once, and that can be quite expensive. That’s why today I’m sharing a simple recipe for homemade vitamin C gummies that you can make together with your kids. Not only is this a healthy alternative, but it’s also a fun activity – kids will love popping the gummies out of…

Healthy Polish Coconut Custard (diary free)
Who doesn’t love custard? It’s a flavor most of us associate with childhood and the warmth of home. Pudding was the first dish I ever made on my own – back then, I used the instant mix from a packet. Unfortunately, those ready-made mixes are mostly starch, sugar, artificial flavors, and colorings, which makes them far from an ideal healthy dessert.
