Mum’s the word.

“These plates are perfect for my kids. I love that I can cut their food straight on them and I was so surprised at how strong the suction is. My kids love the colours too.”

FROM OUR TABLE TO YOURS

We couldn't find it, so we designed it.

We’re Greta and Jen — mums, primary school teachers, and very familiar with the beautiful chaos of feeding little ones.

When we noticed a detergent taste in food served on silicone plates, we wanted another option. Almost four years of prototypes, bedtime brainstorming and testing later, the Plate Mate was born.

Made with care, for the messy, magical moments.

With love, Greta & Jen xRead our story
