To make a complaint

[Iwannabelikeyouohh]

My son (20 months) did some baking at nursery yesterday.

They made buns. They sent me a picture of my son taking part and I noticed they were putting whole cherries on top of the buns.

I’m feeling really anxious about this and the obvious choking hazard.
I know once cooked it’s not an issue, but what if one of the toddlers had tried to eat one of the whole cherries..!!!

I do suffer with anxiety and I don’t know If I’m being really over the top on this.

From the photos it looked like a member of staff was with the child whilst they placed the cherries on one at a time.

I just don’t know if the nursery realise this could be dangerous, and if I should raise this awareness to them.

I would call the nursery, that doesnt seem safe and the buns sound revolting anyway so a bit of a waste of time cooking them.

OP didn't provide a detailed recipie, how can you possibly decide they are disgusting?!

A hard cube of cheese shouldn’t be offered, once modified, it’s safer to offer.

But doesn't a destoned glacé cherry count as modified?

It may be destoned but the shape of the cherry is still round. I would quarter length ways.

Yes, it is round, but it has been heavily cooked in sugar syrup, and hasn’t got it’s stone at the centre, so it stops being round really easily - much more so than a mini egg or a fresh grape. To me, that means it is far less likely to get stuck and cause choking.

It's more like a jelly than a hard egg or grape

I think your anxiety is carrying you away
