Solutions Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Miyazaki City, Miyazaki Prefecture, Representative Director: Kazuo Tadokoro) has launched a development project for a new product, "Chicken Liver x Chicken Fillet Powder," under its baby food brand "Hiyori no Wagohan," aimed at addressing nutritional challenges during the weaning period. The project began on April 1, 2026, on the crowdfunding site "CAMPFIRE."
Background: "Iron Deficiency" and "The Reality of Not Being Able to Continue" During the Weaning Period
It is said that infants and toddlers require an increased amount of iron after 6 months of age. However, in actual households, there are challenges such as:
Troublesome pre-processing of liver Concerns about smell and cooking methods Risk of waste due to inconsistent eating habits Burden of considering daily nutritional balance
These issues make continuous intake difficult.
While operating nurseries, we have received many comments from parents saying, "We know iron is important, but we can't keep it up."
Development Process: Bringing Childcare Site Innovations to Homes
In the nurseries operated by the company, liver is creatively prepared and provided under the supervision of nutritionists, creating an environment where children can consume it without difficulty.
However, it is difficult to reproduce similar cooking methods at home. Therefore, to "reproduce the ingenuity of the childcare site in a form that can be used at home," we developed a nutritional support food in powder form, blended with chicken liver and chicken fillet in an 8:2 ratio.
Product Features
This product has the following features:
① Easy iron supplementation by simply mixing
Can be used by simply mixing with porridge, vegetables, soup, etc. Significantly reduces cooking effort.
② Proven palatability in nurseries
During taste tests, children's voices saying "Please sprinkle it on" and "More, please" were heard, indicating a design that children readily accept.
③ Unique blend of chicken liver x chicken fillet
The blend considers the balance between nutritional value and palatability, making it easy to continue using.
