Introduction
Each parent desires that their child would be born healthy, strong, and energetic. However, in this modern, hectic day and age, it may be difficult to maintain balanced nutrition. That is where the natural, homemade style health blends come in. ABC Powder and ABC Malt are two of the most popular products at Raji's Kitchen that are made using the power-packed combo of Apple, Beetroot, and Carrot.
And the great question is, between the ABC Powder and the ABC Malt, which will you give your child?
And, here we go, we will go through the differences, advantages, and real-life situations so you can choose what is best and just right for your family.
What Makes ABC Special?
The “ABC” is the combination of Apple, Beetroot, and Carrot, which has enjoyed an honorable history in natural health stores over the years. Collectively, they provide:
Apple: Contains a lot of fiber and antioxidants, and helps strengthen digestion and immunity.
Beetroot: An iron and folate source that is also good for blood health/stamina.
Carrot: Contains a good amount of beta-carotene and vitamin A, which helps in eye health and development.
Both the ABC Powder and the ABC Malt of Raji's kitchen are based on this original formula- yet the composition used is customized to suit a variety of requirements.
ABC Powder: The Pure & Unsweetened Choice
ABC Powder is crafted for parents who prefer no added sugar, no jaggery, and no sweeteners.
Key Ingredients
Apple, beetroot, carrot
Dry fruits like cashew, pista, and almond
Makhana for light crunch and energy
Cardamom for natural aroma
Why Parents Love It
Zero sweeteners: These are best suited to children sensitive to sugar or parents who do not want their children to consume any sugar.
Variety: It may be poured in porridges, smoothies, rotis or even in baked snacks.
Nutrient dense: Full of essential vitamins, minerals, and plant-based iron.
In simple words, ABC Powder is nothing but plain and simple nutrition.
ABC Malt: The Naturally Sweet, Kid-Friendly Option
ABC Malt, on the other hand, is made for parents who want both nutrition and taste kids will love.
Key Ingredients
Apple, beetroot, carrot
Dates and almonds for added nutrition
Palm jaggery for natural sweetness
Cardamom for flavor
Why Parents Love It
Naturally sweetened: No refined sugar—just palm jaggery and dates.
Palate-friendly: Children often enjoy it more due to its gentle sweetness.
Energy booster: Perfect for mornings or post-playtime recovery.
ABC Malt strikes the right balance between health and taste, making it easier for kids to accept.
When Should You Choose ABC Powder?
If your child needs a sugar-free option: Great for parents mindful about avoiding added sugars.
If you want versatility: Use it in everything—dosas, idlis, parathas, muffins, smoothies.
If your child is already sweet-sensitive: Some kids naturally dislike too much sweetness; powder works better.
If you want to control sweetness yourself, you can always add honey or dates separately.
Example
Imagine making pancakes for your child’s Sunday breakfast. Adding in ABC Powder to the batter, the nutrition increases, though the flavor remains neutral, so you can simply add fruits or a honey drizzle.
When Should You Choose ABC Malt?
If your child is a picky eater, the sweetness makes it more kid-friendly.
If you need a quick fix: Just stir in warm milk or water—ready in seconds.
If your child needs extra energy, Palm jaggery provides natural glucose for active kids.
If mornings are rushed, a glass of ABC Malt is a fast, nutritious breakfast.
Example
Your child comes home after sports practice, tired and hungry. A warm glass of ABC Malt with milk is filling, sweet, and packed with nutrients—a perfect energy recharge.
How to Use ABC Powder and Malt Creatively
With ABC Powder
Add to idli/dosa batter for a hidden veggie boost.
Blend into smoothie bowls with bananas or dates.
Stir into porridge or oats for extra fiber.
Mix into chapati/roti dough for nutrition at every bite.
With ABC Malt
Serve as a morning drink with warm milk.
Mix into milkshakes with banana or strawberry.
Use in desserts like ladoos or cookies for natural sweetness.
Add energy balls for kids’ snack boxes.
Parenting & Nutrition: A Balanced Perspective
One of the biggest challenges parents face today is balancing nutrition with acceptance. Parents are concerned with sugar and processed food or junk food tendencies, whereas children refuse those foods that are either too healthy or too plain.
This is where ABC Powder and ABC Malt hit the proper middle ground:
ABC Powder helps your child to access the full nutritional benefit of fruits, vegetables, and dry fruits without the additional sweetness.
ABC Malt introduces the assurance of natural sweetness, palm jaggery, to the palates that simplifies the entry of health-centric drinks amongst kids.
Having them both at hand will mean almost giving yourself options- when your child needs that extra push or quick boost, provide something not sweet, and when you need to provide some nutrition, the unsweetened version is readily available.
Bear in mind that good eating habits are not only about what you put on the table when you are feeding your child, but also about creating positive images around the food items. By introducing these kinds of health mixes into their everyday diet, children understand that healthy food may also be delicious, warm, and entertaining.
So the choice isn’t ABC Powder vs. ABC Malt—it’s knowing when to use which.
Can You Use Both Together?
Absolutely! Many parents buy both. For example:
Morning routine: Serve ABC Malt with milk for a sweet start.
Afternoon snack: Use ABC Powder in a smoothie or chapati.
This way, your child gets the benefit of variety, without overdoing sweetness.
Tips for Parents
Gradually introduce: Begin with small amounts to allow kids to adjust.
Mix wisely: Mix powder + malt if you're seeking a balance between neutral and sweet.
Storage: Keep both in airtight storage. ABC Malt stays fresher when refrigerated.
Get creative: Apply cookie cutters, colored cups, and smoothie straws to provide healthy snacks visually appealing.
Listen to your child’s body: Observe their responses- figure out what suits their energy and mood.
Final Thoughts
When it comes to ABC Powder vs. ABC Malt, the choice isn’t about which is better; it’s about what works best for your child’s lifestyle.
Pick ABC Powder if you prefer unsweetened, versatile nutrition. Choose ABC Malt if your child needs a tasty, naturally sweet energy boost.
And if you’re like many parents, you don’t have to choose. Keep both at home and use them based on the occasion. After all, nutrition isn’t one-size-fits-all.
At Raji’s Kitchen, every blend is crafted with love, using natural ingredients, free from preservatives and artificial flavors—because your child deserves nothing but the best.
