  • Finally a milk my son enjoys

    I absolutely love the design of the tin, it’s eye catching and fun and makes me excited to give it to my children to try. I tried this milk with my fussy 13 month old since he no longer wants to breastfeed. Usually when I give him any type of milk he either won’t finish it, spit it out or play with it, so I was a little nervous trying this with him. However I was so incredibly happy when he actually finished his entire bottle without spitting any of it or playing with it. He loved it. Phew! It was easy to prepare, although I would prefer a slightly larger scoop so I don’t have to scoop it 6 times. But otherwise I will definitely be purchasing this again in future.

  • Taste almost like fresh milk!

    First impression was already good! I was quite excited when I first saw the tin, even more excited than my toddler.
    I honestly did not expect good outcome when I first applied for this review as I have tried a couple brands for my fussy eater. To my surprise, he actually likes it and was able to finish it. I am a happy mum!

  • Great and tasty

    My little boy absolutely loved this milk drink. We have tried other milk drinks in the past and they can be a bit of a hit and miss with him, but he enjoyed Nutura organic milk so much he kept asking for it. The design of the container is really nice and easy to use and looks great in our pantry. He said it tasted yummy and it kept he fuller for longer as he didn’t snack as much throughout the day after having it. Highly recommend and we will be purchasing this in the future.

  • You can use it to cook your toddler dessert!

    My toddler loved this milk so much I went onto the Nutura website to see if there were any recipes I could use it with and found a great custard one.
    I made it for my toddler today to see how she would take to it and she loved it just as much as she did with it as a drink!
    I love how you can use it to cook with as well as it means that she can have it more often as a solid.
    My toddler seems fuller for longer and I love how it overall improves her mood – she is always so excited to have it!

  • Winning with this Milk Drink from Nutura!

    Finally a Milk drink my tot gets excited to drink!
    It’s organic & made in Australia from Australian cows milk which means it doesn’t have that over sweet vanilla scent other milk drinks have. It actually smells like real milk which is why my tot loves it!!
    Easy to make and it comes in a super cute tin too!
    No question about it – we love Nutura Organic Toddler Milk

  • Bubba’s new fave!

    It’s not always easy knowing if you toddler is getting everything they need, especially when half their food ends up tossed on the floor!

    The Nutura Toddler Milk drink have become an absolute favourite in our house. Not only is it free from nasties like artificial colours, flavours preservatives and GMO ingredients, but it’s full of nutrients and is 100% certified organic!

    This 100% Aussie owned and made milk drink isn’t just delicious, it’s simple to make! Simply measure out and shake or stir!

    We’re nearly through our first tin, and will definitely be repurchasing.

  • Yummy for my Toddler

    Having a toddler can be so hard some days, the picky eating and bringing hike sickness constantly isn’t much fun. Having extra nutrients in a milk drink that he actually likes the taste of makes if so much easier in these hard times. Love that it is made from cows milk and gives my little one a boost especially when he needs it most. Love the easy opening and not having to dig for the scoop was an extra bonus. Definitely recommend to others in the future.

  • Delicious Milk Drink

    This toddler milk drink is great. The first thing I noticed was the wonderful package that was amazing to open, easy and fuss free. The smell is delicious and it is so easy to pop into a sippy cup for my little one. He enjoyed the taste (which is the biggest test) – love that it’s nourishing him as a great added bonus to his expanding diet. Thanks for the trial!

  • My toddler loves it

    My toddler is so picky with her milk!
    I was interested to see how this would go with her as these days, everything I give her is a “no!”.
    Surprisingly enough, she actually really liked this milk drink. I put it in her my little pony cup which I usually put her juice in and she just loved it. She drank the whole thing in less than 5 minutes and said it was yum yum yummy.
    I honestly was really surprised as she’s never drank milk out of anything but a bottle before (unless it was flavoured milk then out of a popper) but she really took to this well.
    My toddler loves this milk so much that every morning when she wakes up, she goes straight for the tin and says, “mummy, drink!” so basically wants to have it for brekkie.
    I’m so happy she has finally found something on the healthier side to love other than chicken nuggets, chips and juice.

  • Delicious and convenient

    The Nutura Organic Stage 3 Toddler Milk Drink past the “toddler taste-test” with flying colours. The fun and colourful tin made it exciting for my little one. He enjoyed helping me make the drink and mixed it himself. Plus it’s great as a parent to know your little person is consuming Australian Cows’ Milk that is Certified Organic. Nice peace of mind.

  • Toddler Milkshake!

    My toddler really enjoyed trying his new toddler milk. He called it a “milkshake” and it was fun including him in the preparation. I felt good knowing that I am giving him a certified organic Australian product. We have incorporated this into his bed time routine and he always drinks the whole cup before going to bed. I think I will continue to use this instead of regular cows milk due to the nutritional benefits for my growing toddler.

  • Abit skeptical about it.

    So i was sent this amazing product I believe to test it. I opened it and wow the best part was the spoon on top so i dont have to put my fingers in to dig it all the time. Also i like the fact that its lid is airtight. Overall the product packaging is amazing.

    1. My child did not like the taste of it in the start. I tried to be persistent in giving just coz i saw the ingredients and its benefits and that its organic. He would drink just coz i offer him and he i guess he wants to make me happy lol. but he does not enjoy it and will take time to finish it and make faces ????

    2. I found it constipated him and he does not open his bowel everyday unlike before.

  • Toddler Organic Milk

    So it has been a couple weeks now and my little one is still enjoying this milk. My little one is picky his food, he has learnt from his friend that vegetables are yucky so he won’t eat them so I have the added reassurance that this toddler milk still has lots of nutrients that he would otherwise be getting if he ate a balanced diet.
    This toddler milk is easy to make.

  • Fussy toddler took it!

    I have tried several brands for my fussy toddler to take as his milk drink. He refused everything even after one sip. I was actually expecting the same for this Nutura Organic Toddler Milk Drink, but to my surprise he actually finished it! He would usually take quite a but of time to finish his food/drink but not this milk drink. He was able to finish it in one sitting. Bonus for the attractive tin!

Bonus, love that nuturaorganic is also 100% Australian owned and made with our own Aussie cows milk.

  • Premium Australian Milk Drink

    Nutura Organic Toddler Milk Drink is full of vitamins and minerals to meet the nutritional needs of a growing toddler. It contains prebiotics to help with the immune and digestive system as well as omega 3 and omega 6 to help with brain and eye development.

    The packaging looks premium with a more secure snap lock lid. I like how the measuring spoon is on the top of the foil and not inside the can of milk powder so it limits contamination by not needing to reach into it with your fingers.

    I’ve been trying this for my 16 month old toddler and he loves it as he keeps on asking for seconds. It tastes great, made from organic ingredients and Australian made.

  • Not for my little one, but great Aussie made and owned product with awesome tin design!

    I tried my 18 month old with the Nutura Organic milk drink in his sippy cup. I love that the product is Australian made and owned, organic, and the tin design is fabulous! Great idea to store the scoop inside the lid!

    However, after a week of offering the milk drink to my son, he still didn’t drink more than a quarter of a cup, and it just wasn’t for him.

  • Convenient

    This was our first time trying toddler milk and it was a success! Using cold water it was a bit difficult trying to mix it in a cup as there were still some lumps, warmer water or a shaker would probably be better. My son is still getting the hang of using a cup, but he really enjoyed what he managed to drink and finished the whole serving which is much better than his attempts at cows milk. I like that it can be stored in the cupboard and you have 4 weeks from opening to use it, unlike a carton of milk, and that it has added vitamins and minerals.

I fondly remember slow, summer afternoons with family and friends gathered around a table of delicious finger-food during my childhood – the adults chatting and laughing, the kids pretending they understood the jokes. My parents had continued their Mediterranean traditions long after settling in Australia – and the simple joy of an effortlessly elegant gathering was one of my favourites.

What I don’t remember is my parents ever being stressed about the gatherings. It all just seemed to ‘come together’. Ah, how times have changed!

There’s something about the Italian style of entertaining that’s still so alluring in our fast-paced family lives. The idea of La Dolce Vita: a sweet life surrounded by family, friends, food and minimal fuss. Which is why we’ve enlisted the help of the entertaining experts at Sandhurst to share easy tips for elegant, memorable summer get-togethers.

We also asked our community of mums to share their tried and true, easy summer entertaining ideas, and we can’t wait to share them with you!

Before we dive into the delicious world of sumptuous, simple summer entertaining, it helps to know a little about the inspiration behind our guide. And that’s the concept of Italian entertaining – where time is taken to lovingly grow ingredients, before enjoying them with those you love.

Established in 1988, Sandhurst was born from the time-honoured traditions of generations of the family behind the brand – a proud Italian Australian family passionate about quality produce sourced from world’s best growers.

At the helm of Sandhurst are brothers Mimmo and Ray Lubrano, who live and breathe the impeccable ingredients that become the centrepiece of so many gatherings in Australian family homes.

“Tradition is what we stand for. We’re custodians of Italian values,” explained Mimmo. “When we go to Italy we see it in our grandparents, our parents came from Italy in the 50s. The tradition is a set of values: honesty, teamwork, participation, family – all the things you would associate with Italian family are the values.”

And it’s these beautiful values that make summer gatherings in Australia an extension of the European table.

Easy Summer Entertaining Starts With … Time Saving Secrets!

A sweet summer of entertaining doesn’t need to be stressful. In fact, it shouldn’t be. It’s a chance to spend time with loved ones. To press pause on life and make memories. And it can be simple! So here are some really easy tips for making your home the place where everyone wants to gather this summer.

Create An Entertaining Kit

Whether it’s pre-planned or you’ve had friends or family drop-in, having a few things ready to go immediately melts away any stress. Here are some things to include in a summer entertaining kit:

  • A red table cloth: It instantly says festive!
  • Some platters and serving dishes
  • Candles
  • Some quality antipasto ingredients that simply need to be decanted and enjoyed!

Many Hands Make Light Work

As mums, we tend to be our own worst enemy when it comes to delegating tasks. But remember, a summer of entertaining is about creating memories – not perfection. So let the kids help, and accept offers from your guests who’d like to bring something along to share.

“It can be overwhelming, so just delegate, and prepare. I do one dish prep per day and pop them in the freezer. Then they just need to be heated up. Let the kids do the decorating for you – plus keeps them busy!” – MoM Member Kirsty

Decorate With Happiness

There’s no need to pull out your finest crystal to pull off an elegant get together. Take a look around your home and garden to see what will bring your table to life. A bowl of lemons is a gorgeous addition, as is a bunch of gum leaves. Keep it simple and understated.

Finger Food For The Win

Nothing says simple summer elegance more than a charcuterie board (or three!). When my friends and our families get together, it’s our go-to – every family is asked to ‘bring a board’. Some do savoury and some sweet, so we’re covered for a long afternoon of catching up.

“Food wise, I keep it simple by doing cold deli meats, cheeses, fresh fruits and veggies.” – MoM Member

But just because boards are easy to put together, doesn’t mean they can’t ooze elegance. And that comes down to including quality ingredients. Choosing Sandhurst products is the easiest way to guarantee the highest quality ends up on your table. We love the premise behind the brand: from our family to yours – it invokes that nostalgic feeling of shared stories, history, gatherings and family.

How To Put Together A Charcuterie Board

There are no right or wrong ways to create a charcuterie board, but to ensure a balance of textures and flavours try to include:

La Dolce Vita!

A summer of sophisticated entertaining doesn’t have to be hours and hours of work. We don’t want it to be! By grabbing some beautiful ingredients to fill your pantry next time you’re shopping, you’ll know that at a moment’s notice you’ll have everything you need for a Euro-inspired gathering. No fuss, but plenty of substance and style!

  • This is great for the grandchildren they love them as they use them as finger food and make up their own meal and use plenty of ingredients including meat and cheese on the dips and crackers. We keep it simple with the Sandhurst’s products as it is a meal in every jar and the kids love them.

  • This looks like the perfect relaxed way to have a picnic! I am loving the idea of this! Just bring along lots of fillings and plenty of cheeses and breads and of course a little alcohol and you’re all set. This sounds like the perfect way to catch up with friends!

  • Certainly most welcome for summer, and would be wonderful for the festive season. I can see this platter on the table Christmas Eve, when we get together with our neighbours.

  • Charcuterie boards are the absolute best! We do these so often in the warmer months because there’s something for the whole family. People pick and choose what they like and there’s no complaints because there’s so many different options to choose from, everyone is happy. It’s such a simple stressful way to make dinner.

  • I absolutely adore finger food and this style of feeding people when we have family and friends at our home; or when we go out for a picnic, bbq or get together. These types of food are so easy to source and to buy and to prepare and to happily eat.


    • Yes I agree, finger foods are easy and yummie ! And you can assemble a healthy enough plate (certainly when you add salads, cheeses, nuts, fruits, boiled eggs, olives and rustic breads) that it can certainly can replace a meal (either lunch or dinner). Everyone happy and no hours of preparation in the kitchen :)



      • Also; the other bonus is less mess to clean up when cutlery is not needed. Finger food is the best for laid back and relaxed get togethers. There is always such a clam and relaxed feel to a finger food meal without the need for any fancy and stuffy table settings.

  • I love the looks of different finger foods. I don’t think it is hard to put something together and I had many afternoons hanging out with many mums and all the children at the Cul the sac we then lived. At times I had 8 mums coming with over 40 kids. Many sweet memories indeed

  • Charcuterie Boards and Antipasto boards are so good. I love them, i love the variety of foods you can put on them and they are so great for entertaining and enjoying with family or friends. It is something i like to make whenever i have friends over as you can enjoy and pick away while you are catching up. Great entertaining option.

  • I absolutely adore an antipasto spread. There’s nothing better than having a colourful plate of charcuterie and antipasto shared with loved ones. I grew up with my Mum making the most lush, long table of nibblies on celebrations and it’s something that my siblings and I carry on today. It brings us all together.
