We often question whether or not certain symptoms are related to a food or cows' milk allergy.

Neocate Village provides a symptom checklist that will bring you closer to determining if your suspicions are warranted.

Please read this important notice first before proceeding:

We at Nutricia believe in providing the best nutrition for babies, which is why we recognise that breast milk is best. It is important that, in preparation for and during breastfeeding, you follow a healthy, balanced diet. Choosing how to feed your baby is an important decision, which is why professional advice should be followed before using an infant formula. As your baby’s individual needs have to be considered, it is recommended that all formula milks should be used on the advice of a healthcare professional. Combined breast and bottle feeding in the first weeks of life may reduce the supply of your own breast milk, and reversing the decision not to breastfeed is difficult. The financial and social implications of choosing how to feed your baby should also be considered when selecting a feeding method. Because the proper use of an infant formula is important for the health of your baby, infant formula should be used and prepared as directed; incorrect preparation and use can make your baby ill.

The information provided on this website should never replace the advice you receive from a qualified healthcare professional. Always consult your healthcare professional for advice about feeding your baby.

Ginger Bread Cookies

Time Required 60 Minutes

Free from allergens: Cows Milk, Peanuts and Tree nuts, and Soy

Ingredients

2 cup plain flour
1 cup Neocate
120 g Nuttalex margarine
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
1/2 tsp ground cloves
2 tsp ground ginger
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup golden syrup
1 egg
2 tsp ground cinnamon

Icing

250-300 grams pure icing sugar (sifted twice)
2 drops of lemon juice
1 egg white

Method

Cookies

Preheat oven 160C.
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and knead until smooth.
Roll the kneaded dough between 2 sheets of baking paper until approximately 1 cm thick.
Refrigerate the dough until chilled for about 30 minutes.
Place chilled dough on bench and remove the baking paper. Cut out shapes using a cookie cutter.
Place on a tray lined with baking paper and then bake for 10-12 minutes until slightly golden. Tip: Cookies will expand when cooking so make sure you leave approximately 5cm space between cookies on the tray.
Decorate with icing when the cookies are cool.

Icing

Place your egg white into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Make sure that all your equipment is washed and completely dry and free from impurities or fats as grease will cause the icing to fail.
Gradually add one tablespoon of pure icing sugar at a time to the egg white. Ensure you beat the mixture well with a wooden spoon between each addition until the sugar is thoroughly dissolved. Continue until the mixture is very white and smooth and has reached the consistency of a thick syrup. It is not recommended that an electric beater be used due to the risk of over beating.
Add 2 drops of lemon juice and continue beating for a further 2 minutes before adding more icing sugar. Once the lemon juice has been added, decrease the amount of icing sugar added to a teaspoon and continue mixing in each addition until the mixture is firm enough to hold a peak.
The icing is now ready for use and we would recommend using the icing immediately as this is when it is at its best.
