Can chicory be given to children?

Caffeine is not recommended for children, but chicory is. Chicory comes from the chicory root. It is naturally stimulant-free. Respectful of the product, Leroux does not add any sugar during the manufacture of its range.

Our 100% chicory products for children

Soluble Chicory Nature and Liquid Chicory are made from 100% chicory and are guaranteed caffeine-free. They are therefore ideal for family consumption. It’s a great way to bring the whole family together over the same hot, light drink with a great caramel flavour! To make it easier for children to use these products, Nature’s Soluble Chicory is also available in boxes of 20 sticks. This makes it a practical product, because it’s already measured out, ready to be poured into a mug of milk or water, hot or cold, for consumption at any time of day.

You can cook with chicory!

And even more! Thanks to these products, children can bake delicious cakes with a caramelised flavour that’s both light and delicious. Chicory adds a delicious sweetness to doughs (cakes, pancakes, waffles) and preparations (both savoury and sweet), while remaining a low-calorie product! Mild in drinks and delicious as a snack!

Caffeine-free, a source of fibre and low in calories, Soluble Chicory Nature and Liquid Chicory have everything to please the whole family.

Good to know: Children can also paint with chicory! Liquid chicory comes in a wide range of brown shades, depending on how much you dilute it with water. Granulated chicory can then be added to the painting, as a decorative touch.
