Indian baby using Cubkins 7-Piece Silicone Baby Feeding Set — suction plate, bendable spoon and sippy cup on highchair tray

Cubkins 7-Piece Silicone Baby Feeding Set: The Complete First Feeding Kit for Indian Babies

The first time you sit your baby in a highchair with a bowl of ragi porridge in front of them, you want everything to work the first time. Not a plate that slides across the tray before the spoon reaches the mouth. Not a spoon too rigid for a wrist that cannot yet rotate. Not a sippy cup that requires strength a 6-month-old does not have. The Cubkins 7-Piece Silicone Baby Feeding Set is built around one idea: every tool your baby needs from first solids at 6 months to confident self-feeding at 18 months — in a single, coordinated purchase.

⚡ Quick Takeaways

  • The Cubkins 7-Piece Silicone Baby Feeding Set contains 7 pieces: suction plate, suction bowl with lid, sippy cup with straw and lid, silicone bib, bendable silicone spoon, stainless steel fork, and stainless steel spoon.
  • Every food-contact surface is made from 100% food-grade silicone — no plastic anywhere that touches your baby's food, no BPA, no phthalates, no lead.
  • The set covers the full 6–18 month feeding journey — the silicone tools serve the first-solids stage, the steel cutlery serves the self-feeding stage, and the sippy cup bridges the bottle-to-cup transition.
  • It is one of the most popular Annaprashan and baby shower gifts from Cubkins — a complete, premium gifting solution in coordinated packaging that requires no additional purchases to be immediately useful.
  • Per the Indian Academy of Paediatrics (IAP), complementary feeding tools should be free of BPA, food-grade, easy to sterilise, and appropriately sized for infant motor development — all criteria this set meets.

What Is Inside the Cubkins 7-Piece Silicone Baby Feeding Set?

The Cubkins 7-Piece Silicone Baby Feeding Set is a coordinated feeding kit designed to take an Indian baby from first solids at 6 months through to independent toddler feeding at 18 months and beyond. Every food-contact surface is 100% food-grade silicone or 304-grade stainless steel — no plastic touches your baby's food at any point.

1. Silicone Suction Plate (6M+)

Locks firmly onto the highchair tray and stays there regardless of pushing, pulling, or enthusiastic plate-banging. Four divided sections keep khichdi, dal, banana, and sabzi separate — useful once babies start showing food preferences. The non-porous food-grade silicone surface resists turmeric staining and cleans in seconds.

2. Suction Bowl with Lid (6M+)

The deep suction bowl is the right vessel for Indian semi-liquid baby foods — ragi porridge, moong dal water, soft curd — that would slosh out of a flat plate. The fitted lid keeps leftover portions fresh in the fridge between feeds, practical for families preparing baby food in advance for the day.

3. Sippy Cup with Straw and Lid (6M+)

The bridge between breast or bottle feeding and a regular cup — a transition Indian parents typically navigate between 6 and 12 months. The transparent section shows how much liquid remains without opening the lid, useful for tracking water and milk intake. The reusable straw and anti-slip base handle daily use and the rough handling of a toddler carrying their own cup.

4. Silicone Bib with Deep Food Catcher (6M+)

A wide, deep food-catcher pocket that catches what falls off the spoon between plate and mouth — which in the first weeks of self-feeding is most of it. Wipes clean in seconds, does not stain from turmeric or dal the way fabric bibs do, and adjusts to fit necks from 6 months through toddler years.

5. Early Feeding Bendable Silicone Spoon (6M+)

A 6-month-old's wrist cannot rotate outward — the developmental motor skill has not arrived yet. A rigid spoon requires this rotation, which is why most of the first weeks of solid feeding ends up on the bib. The bendable silicone spoon angles to wherever you need it and holds that position during the feed. The reinforced core means it does not collapse mid-spoonful of khichdi. The shallow head is sized for a 6-month-old's mouth opening.

6. Stainless Steel Spoon with Silicone Handle (9M+)

From around 9 months, when the Pincer Grasp develops and babies start deliberate scooping attempts, the steel spoon becomes the right tool. The 304-grade steel head is rust-proof and turmeric-stain resistant. The short silicone handle is designed for the Palmar Grasp — how babies hold utensils at this stage — making successful scooping significantly more likely than with adult-length handles.

7. Stainless Steel Fork with Silicone Handle (9M+)

Fully rounded tines — genuinely blunt to the touch. Run your finger across any fork tines before trusting them near a baby's mouth: they should feel completely smooth. This fork handles soft Indian finger foods — paneer cubes, soft idli pieces, steamed carrot sticks — precisely when babies start preferring to stab rather than scoop from around 10–12 months onward.

How Does the Set Cover the Full Feeding Journey?

Most feeding sets cover one stage. The Cubkins 7-Piece Silicone Baby Feeding Set covers three — which is why Indian parents return to it across multiple purchases and gift it for Annaprashan, first birthdays, and baby showers.

  • 6–9 months — First Solids Stage: The suction plate, suction bowl, bendable spoon, and bib carry all the work. Indian first foods — ragi porridge, moong dal khichdi, mashed banana, sweet potato purée — are all semi-liquid and need the stability of suction vessels and the angle flexibility of a bendable spoon.
  • 9–12 months — Transition Stage: The sippy cup and stainless steel spoon enter active use alongside the silicone tools. Finger foods begin — soft idli, paneer, steamed vegetables — and the steel fork becomes relevant.
  • 12–18 months — Self-Feeding Stage: The full 7-piece set is in simultaneous daily rotation. The toddler increasingly prefers the steel cutlery, uses the sippy cup independently, and insists on feeding themselves from the suction plate.

Why Is the Cubkins 7-Piece Silicone Baby Feeding Set the Right Annaprashan and Baby Shower Gift?

Annaprashan — the ceremony marking a baby's first solid food — typically happens at 6 months, precisely when this set becomes useful. A feeding set is therefore one of the few gifts that is immediately practical rather than aspirational. For baby showers before birth, it is a purchase the family will reach for at the 6-month milestone.

The set solves the gifting problem that individual product purchases create: buying a plate alone leaves the family without a matching spoon; buying a spoon alone leaves them without a bowl. A coordinated 7-piece set removes that calculation entirely and arrives in premium packaging appropriate for Indian gifting culture where presentation is part of the gesture.

What Should You Look for When Choosing a Baby Feeding Set in India?

  • 100% food-grade silicone: Not just "silicone" or "BPA-free" — the entire food-contact surface should be 100% food-grade silicone with no plastic inserts or bases. This is non-negotiable for Indian baby foods that are hot, turmeric-heavy, and acidic.
  • Suction base on bowls and plates: Essential for Indian semi-liquid baby foods. A non-suction plate with khichdi on it will be on the floor within one meal.
  • Developmental appropriateness: The spoon shape, handle length, and bowl depth should match the motor skill stage — not just the age range label on the packaging.
  • Stain resistance: Indian baby foods are heavily pigmented — turmeric, dal, ragi, beetroot. Food-grade silicone is non-porous and resists staining; plastic does not.
  • Dishwasher and steriliser safe: Both the silicone and steel components of the Cubkins 7-Piece Silicone Baby Feeding Set are top-rack dishwasher safe and steriliser safe — no special handling required.

Frequently Asked Questions

What age is the Cubkins 7-Piece Silicone Baby Feeding Set suitable for?

The set is designed for babies from 6 months through to 18 months and beyond. The silicone tools — suction plate, suction bowl, bendable spoon, and bib — are appropriate from 6 months when solids begin. The stainless steel spoon, fork, and sippy cup become the primary tools from around 9 months onward as the Pincer Grasp and self-feeding skills develop.

Is the Cubkins 7-Piece Silicone Baby Feeding Set safe for Indian baby foods like khichdi and ragi?

Yes — all food-contact surfaces are 100% food-grade silicone, which is non-toxic, non-porous, and heat-stable up to 200°C. The non-porous surface means ragi, turmeric dal, and khichdi do not absorb into the material. All pieces are free of BPA, phthalates, and lead. The stainless steel components are 304-grade food-safe steel — the same grade used in professional Indian kitchens.

Is the Cubkins 7-Piece Silicone Baby Feeding Set a good Annaprashan or baby shower gift?

Yes — it is one of the most practical Annaprashan gifts because it becomes useful at exactly the moment the ceremony marks: the beginning of solid food. The full 7-piece set covers every tool needed from 6 months through toddlerhood, arrives in premium packaging appropriate for gifting, and removes the common problem of individual pieces that do not form a complete feeding setup.

How do I clean the Cubkins 7-Piece Silicone Baby Feeding Set?

All silicone pieces — plate, bowl, spoon, bib — are top-rack dishwasher safe and can be hand-washed with baby-safe dish soap and warm water. The stainless steel spoon and fork are also top-rack dishwasher safe. Do not microwave any piece containing steel. For turmeric staining on silicone, apply a baking soda and water paste, leave for 10 minutes, scrub gently with a soft brush, and rinse thoroughly.

Does the Cubkins 7-Piece Silicone Baby Feeding Set include everything needed to start solids?

The 7-piece set covers all the core feeding tools: plate, bowl, cup, bib, bendable spoon, steel spoon, and steel fork. You will additionally need a highchair and a supply of first foods. The set provides every tool needed for first-spoon feeding, BLW finger food exploration, and the transition to self-feeding with a spoon and fork through the toddler years.
