I think it would be okay as potato is frozen on thungs like shepherds pie isn't it? I think teh reason people don't icecube it when weaning is because if you puree it it can become starchy. Someone correct me if I'm wrong!

yep - it's OK - would advise to mash it not puree though else it will be gluey. It usually thaws out a bit thicker than it goes in, but you can let it down with milk once it's reheated. I freeze it in clumps in a twist of cling film as it's a bugger to get into ice cube trays. HTH

Yes it's fine, but it goes a bit funny when thawed - I always freeze potato and carrot together as it's easier to get a good consistency quickly when you come to feed the bab.

Have you got a microwave, sasa? Probably just as quick (and easier, and nicer even) to microwave a small spud in its skin and then mash its middle.
