Description
Made from real fruit juice, Flavour Creations’ great tasting pre-thickened ready-to-drink juices help people with dysphagia/swallowing difficulties manage their fluid and energy intake.
Flavour Creations’ Thickened Juices strike the perfect balance between sweet and refreshing, and come packaged in the award-winning Dysphagia Cup to make hydration easier than ever.
The Dysphagia Cup is a patented drinking cup engineered to make swallowing safer and easier for people with dysphagia. Developed by Flavour Creations over seven years, the cup’s sloped rim minimises the risks of coughing and aspiration posed by traditional cup shapes, with an easy-peel lid and textured sides helping people with reduced grip strength drink independently.
Juices are available in a pack of 24. Flavours: apple, pear, orange and sun juice.
Flavour Creations’ Juices are dairy free, gluten free, lactose free, nut free, soy free and low in sodium and cholesterol.

If following a Texture C diet, Flavour Creations recommends consulting a Speech Language Therapist and/or Dietitian before consumption.
Flavour Creations fruit juices
- mildly thick in viscosity (150) – This means these fluids easily flow off a spoon with effort required to drink through a standard bore straw. They are sip-able and pours quickly from spoon but slower than thin drinks.
