Let customers speak for us
It makes prepping dinners so easy. I can stick to my usual recipes and just add the veg blocks as needed. One night I was desperate to get dinner on for our fussy toddler, I put on some pasta shells and defrosted a few of the veg blocks with some tomatos and used it as a sauce for the pasta, it was delicious! Especially with a bit of cheese. We are packing in way more vegetables in our diet now!
Such a great low sugar alternative to dessert. Our family love the flavours and our little one loves the banana smoothie flavour. Its such a great way to squeeze in fruit and veg after a day or corn crackers and plain pasta!
So easy to incorporate into our weekly family meals, our little one doesn't even notice the difference. We're all feeling healthier recently, and we up making better life decisions because of it. With that little one. Witht the little one teething the ice blocks have been a game changer post dinner
Love these Icy Poles! My daughter’s favourite dessert and much healthier than other options on the market
Great for my almost 2yo who has started rejecting veggies. Adding beige blocks to eggs or rice has been a super simple way to get some veg in her!
Stirred this through some pasta with the kids, a really tasty mix to get them from 0 veg to something resembling a healthy dinner. Delicious flavour, not just a random assortment of orange things.
I used 3 green blocks frozen, into my NutriBullet (no need to defrost) with mango, banana, coconut water, protein powder. So easy, without having to chop and prep my greens.
This is exactly what I’ve been looking for!!! I have 2 young girls that I struggle with a little with getting enough veggies into their diet. I made a pasta sauce, with beige and rainbow blocks. They loved it. Will be coming back for more.
We used 3 varieties of Veg Blocks in the 5Plus meatball recipe, and they were delicious. The vegetables are truly hidden in the recipe, so perfect for any fussy eating kids or in our case, an easy and delicious mid week meal.
Excellent tasty addition to my scrambled eggs as a busy new Mum with limited time and a body that needs as much veg as possible!
Added to my tomato pasta sauce and it was excellent. Used 6 blocks but probably could have added more.
What a great idea! Good for toddlers and babies too. Such a time saver.
Good Food, Doing Good
As a Melbourne based social enterprise, we're on a mission to improve the health, longevity and quality of life of all Australians by eating more clean and nutritious food, namely, eating more vegetables.
After just three months of operations, we knew we needed to put more focus on our values. So from March 2025, we're proud to call ourselves a social enterprise. This is just the beginning. We want to disrupt the food industry for good, showing that tasty convenient food can be made from whole, clean ingredients, without the ridiculous number of additives that is commonly used.
Our profits will be focused on increasing accessibility of our products to lower-socioeconomic communities.
Just food, no nonsense
Are you sick of all the ultra-processed foods at the supermarkets? Us too.
Do you wish you could be bothered eating more veggies? Us too.
Are your kids throwing their veg against the wall? (if you know, you know)
That's where 5+ Foods comes to play.
Put simply, we only use food in our products. None of this 'natural' labelled stuff that's still questionable, we just use food, and the whole food so we get all the good vitamins and minerals.
Think about all the lists of marketing claims you see out there - no colours, no added sugar, etc. We'll, we would be here forever if we listed all the things we don't add. That's because, we just use food!
Aussie made, Aussies first
All products are handmade in Newport, Melbourne. We'd say that's a fair claim to say it's made in Australia!
We also make sure we buy Australian first wherever possible. It would be nice to say all our ingredients and materials are Australian made, but things like coconut water are pretty much impossible to source locally.
Reducing food waste
We are committed to reducing food waste through our range of products.
Our Veg Blocks have close to zero food waste. We include all stems, leaves and seeds. Only the pumpkin stems and rhubarb leaves (given they're poisonous!) are discarded. This also has the added benefit of increasing the diversity of nutrients in your diet. Great for your overall health, and gut health.
Eco friendly packaging
We are committed to only using environmentally friendly
packaging.
Ideally, we would wrap everything in banana skins....but that's kinda tough.
The next best thing is being concious about our packaging to reduce the negative environmental impact we have. That's why we use Natureflex home compostible bags for our Kind Pops, and Biogone landfill biodegradable pouches for our Veg Blocks and Granola.
