: Advances in medical technology have resulted in changes to enteral tube feeding (ETF). Standard practice in the UK is to use commercial formula for ETF via the stomach or small intestine; however, blended diets are becoming increasingly popular. Emerging evidence shows benefits of a blended diet although evidence informing clinical guidance is sparse. Consequently, there is disparity in practice, and it remains unclear which patient groups may benefit most from a blended diet. : To demonstrate the initiation of a blended diet in clinical practice. : This case report features a 2-year-old child requiring ETF in the context of hypotonia, developmental delay and faltering growth. : In this instance, a blended diet resulted in improved gastrointestinal symptoms and adequate growth. : This case demonstrates the successful implementation of a blended diet and associated benefits. Blended diets may benefit others requiring ETF and should be considered on an individualised basis.
