When babies start trying solid food at around six months, suitable cutlery quickly becomes part of everyday life. Silicone baby cutlery from 6 months should sit comfortably in little hands, be easy to clean and be suitable for contact with sensitive gums. Products can vary considerably in their materials, design, care instructions and what’s included.
Three common misconceptions can lead to unnecessary spending:
When choosing BPA-free baby cutlery, look for precise information about the materials. The products featured here are described as being made from food-grade silicone. Some Kikka-Boo models are listed as being made from 100% food-grade platinum silicone. The BC-Babycare set is described as being made from food-grade silicone and polypropylene (PP).
“Platinum silicone” is a material description, not a general quality mark. So you should also check for:
A product should not be used as a teething ring or toy. This also applies to particularly soft silicone children’s cutlery.
A silicone baby spoon should be shaped to pick up small amounts of food without going too far into your baby’s mouth. Ergonomic or textured handles can make it easier to hold, but they’re no substitute for supervision.
Short, lightweight designs are often a good choice for first meals. For example, the Kikka-Boo silicone spoons measure 14.8 × 2.7 cm and weigh 24 g each. The Kikka-Boo fork and spoon sets are listed as measuring 13.8 × 3.5 cm, with each piece weighing around 28 to 29 g.
A soft baby fork should have rounded, slightly flexible tines. This can help your child get started with self-feeding. Even so, children shouldn’t walk or play with cutlery, or chew on it unsupervised.
Clear care instructions are especially important for everyday use. Kikka-Boo products are described as dishwasher-safe, suitable for use in the microwave and suitable for sterilisation. Several models are also listed as having a temperature range of -40 °C to 230 °C.
These figures refer to the material’s heat resistance according to the product description. They don’t mean you can serve food without checking it first. Always check the temperature of the food separately before each meal.
The BC-Babycare set is described as being cleaned with warm water and mild detergent. After rinsing, the fork and spoon should be left to dry completely before being placed in the storage box provided.

Before using feeding cutlery for the first time, clean it according to the manufacturer’s instructions. After that, these habits can help:
Silicone cutlery is intended for its stated purpose. It should not be used as a dummy or teething aid.
According to the product details, the models featured here are suitable for babies from six months. The age recommendation is no substitute for assessing your child’s individual development. Always supervise your baby while they’re eating.
The Kikka-Boo models are explicitly listed as dishwasher-safe. You should also check the care instructions for the specific product. The BC-Babycare set is described as being cleaned with warm water and mild detergent.
Replace it as soon as you notice cracks, deformation, sticky surfaces, loose parts or damaged fork tines. Check the condition regularly, whatever the age of the cutlery.
