Freeze Drying Service
★★★★★
Endless Nights of Pumping, Not Wasted
I couldn't recommend the ladies at The Milk Fairy more highly! Like any mum knows, you give everything on your feeding journey. I'd spent endless nights pumping for my son and didn't want to see it lost before expiry. Within a matter of weeks I had litres of my milk in preserved pouches, ready to use whenever I needed, and I could even take them overseas. Their communication, customer service and whole process was so easy. Highly recommend 🧚✨🥛

Powdered to Perfection
The Milk Fairy provided an excellent service! The communication throughout the process was amazing and they answered any questions I had. They're so informative and have incredible knowledge to help you through the process. I'm so impressed and would recommend this service to anyone. My milk arrived powdered to perfection!

Saved Us on an Off-Grid Camping Trip
Our battery system on our camper failed during the trip, our fridge and freezer turned off overnight without us realising. I lost a little milk I'd pumped the night before, but luckily didn't have any in the freezer because I'd brought the freeze dried sachets instead. Absolute life saver. Will 100% be using again when I build up another stash.

No More Carting Around Frozen Milk!
Absolute amazing idea and product, not having to cart around fresh or frozen as a back up is the best and the stress is gone!

Used Them Twice, Couldn't Recommend More
I've used The Milk Fairy twice now and honestly couldn't recommend them enough. The whole process was so easy both times and the quality of the freeze-dried milk is amazing. I love that my precious milk isn't going to waste. Tiana especially is just gorgeous and so lovely to deal with, she genuinely goes above and beyond. When I went to pick up my milk, my baby had fallen asleep in the car and she actually brought everything out to me so I didn't have to wake them up. You can tell the girls really care about their clients. Thanks Fairys 💕

Two Years Later, Still Coming Back
I am a long-term fan of The Milk Fairy. I used this with my first son and two years later I still have breast milk to offer him when he's sick. I've recently purchased again for my daughter, and as the cherry on top, the team are able to separate my colostrum-heavy milk from the rest. So so thankful. Me and the babies are so lucky.

Seamless from Start to Finish
The process was so seamless! I ordered the wrong package and got in contact with Jessica, she was so quick to help and amend everything fuss-free. You knew what was happening every step of the way, from drop-off to freeze drying to bagging. I'll definitely be coming back. Thank you to the wonderful women who make this magic possible!

Getting Married in Italy, Sorted!
We're travelling to Italy to get married. Having my expressed breast milk in powder form takes the stress off me before the wedding day, and allows my partner to give our baby a bottle easily on the plane. A game changer! The girls at The Milk Fairy were fantastic and made the whole process very easy. Thank you for making modern motherhood more manageable!

Powder back to you
Breast milk is about 87% water. We gently freeze-dry that water away, leaving 13% powder — which holds all the nutrients, antibodies and fats from your milk. Add water back, and it's the exact same milk you gave us. Nothing added, nothing lost.
Why Freeze-Dry?
Your freezer isn't enough
for liquid gold.
