NEW Texture-Modified Range from hospital to home


apetito, the UK’s leading supplier of frozen meals to the NHS, care homes and people receiving community meals, has developed a ground-breaking range of soft and puréed meals and hot desserts. Through its consumer brand Wiltshire Farm Foods – the country’s foremost frozen meals home delivery service – dysphagia patients can now receive the same meals at home that they enjoyed in hospital.


Not only does the range provide patients with the exceptional nutrition they need to recover but, from hospital to home, patients and carers can feel confident they’re receiving a consistent catering solution that helps them stay healthy.


Leaving hospital can be a troubling time for patients. While coping with their illness, many worry whether they will receive the same texture-modified meals they enjoyed in hospital. The thought of blending food at home and dealing with dysphagia also fills people with dread. Illness and uncertainty often conspire to mean patients fail to consume essential calories and nutrients, so malnutrition is always a concern.


Additionally, preparing an appetising meal can be difficult for carers, who often simply liquidise basic recipes, such as cottage pie, with water. The result is a meal that looks unappetising, has a diluted nutritional content and is inconsistent in texture.


This innovative new range solves all these problems, providing dysphagia patients with a dignified dining experience. The result of two years’ research and product development in consultation with caterers, dietitians and carers, the varied range features over fifty energy-dense, high-protein main courses and hot desserts for people with category B, C and D dysphagia.


“ Our range of texture-modified meals is visually appealing and doesn’t compromise on flavour and nutrition. This means patients are more likely to consume dishes to enhance recovery and maintain wellbeing.” Sue Baic, Consultant Dietitian, apetito


Every element of each puréed meal is moulded for natural appearance and keeps its shape after heating. So, for the first time ever, people can enjoy easily digested food that really does look as good it tastes.


Even better, every meal is frozen the moment it’s prepared to lock in its freshness. So, wherever and whenever the meal is reheated, it’s always at its best.

“My husband needs puréed


food following a stroke. I tried blending food myself but by the time I finished, the food was cold. I started using puréed meals from Wiltshire Farm Foods and it’s been very satisfactory. It’s marvellous. Even the puréed meat looks like proper meat.”
