No preservatives, no junk—just real food, made easy, and delivered right to your door. Whether you’ve got a tiny foodie just starting solids or a big kid who needs a balanced meal in a flash, we’ve got you covered. Let’s take a bite-by-bite journey through our menu!

Starting Solids (4+ Months)

  • Babyblends – The moment your little one starts solids is exciting, but let’s be honest, it can also be a little nerve-wracking. We’re here to help you take the guesswork out of feeding.
    • How? Meet Babyblends—cold-pressure protected purees made with non-GMO and USDA Certified Organic ingredients, categorized by a thoughtful progression of five stages that match your baby’s developmental needs. 
    • Stage 1 includes single-ingredient purees like Butternut Squash and Sweet Potato and advances up to Stage 5 with more complex blends like Strawberry Basil Gazpacho and Apple Cinnamon Buckwheat Crumble
    • Curious about how our five stages work when starting solids with your babe at Little Spoon, don’t worry, we’ve broken it down for you!

Major peace of mind alert? Little Spoon is the first baby food brand in the U.S. to adopt a European-Union-inspired safety standard, testing each batch of their baby food for over 500 toxins and contaminants, including plasticizers, heavy metals and pesticides. 

No products are sold if they do not meet their rigorous standards! To give you the utmost confidence in your choices for your little one, you can publicly view every single Babyblend’s test results for heavy metals, pesticides and plasticizers on our site when shopping for your favorite flavors.  

  • Organic Oatmeal Baby Cereal – Say goodbye to outdated, rice-filled cereals and hello to our ancient grain barley and millet blend.
    • Little Spoon’s Organic Oatmeal Baby Cereal is the only Clean Label Project Certified multigrain baby cereal that is free of top 9 allergens and provides 13 essential nutrients. 
    • Did we mention there’s 14g of whole grains per serving? You may be asking yourself, why rice-free? Well, traditional rice-based baby cereals are known to contain higher levels of arsenic. So, we eliminated rice from our formula and now test every batch of cereal for over 500 toxins and contaminants—talk about a win-win! 
    • Crafted with the ultimate care, our USDA certified organic oatmeal is easy to mix and easy to digest…your babe’s starting solids journey has never tasted this good!
  • Organic, Rice-Free Baby Puffs – The perfect on-the-go, self-feeding snack for little hands! Our rice-free USDA certified organic Puffs are made for babes ~6 months with just six simple ingredients.
    • Developed with a speech pathologist, our meltable Puffs have endless benefits, starting with their delicious flavors and intentional shapes: Banana Pitaya Rings and Kale Apple Curls
    • Our Baby Puffs help your baby develop their fine oral and motor skills, like the pincer grasp and the practice of self-feeding. Puffs are designed to be easy for little hands to pick up, while taking them on an adventure of sensory exploration—another crucial component of their cognitive development. 
    • As part of our EU-inspired safety standards for baby food, every batch of Puffs is tested for 500+ toxins and contaminants. If these results don’t meet our rigorous standards, we won’t sell it.  

Transition to Table Foods (9+ Months)

  • Biteables – So your baby is ready for the next eating stage? This stage is equal parts exciting and chaotic (aka: food everywhere). That’s where Biteables come in!
    • These bite-sized transition meals are perfectly cut-to-size to support your babes oral and motor skills. Gone are the stressful days of guessing which ingredients to introduce, to offer as you enter the next eating stage. 
    • Each meal is ready in less than 2 minutes, with flavors you can rely on and ingredients you can pronounce. From meals like Mini Cheesy Pasta to Turkey Kale Meatballs, Biteables make mealtime easy for those little fingers. With options that are vegetarian, dairy-free, nut-free, and gluten-free, there’s no shortage of possibilities when finding flavors that your little one will love. 
    • Just like our Babyblends, Puffs and Cereal, every Biteable meal is tested for 500+ toxins and contaminants including heavy metals, plasticizers and pesticides. 
  • Smoothies – Need a quick snack while you’re running out the door to the next after-school activity or a clean ingredient option for a sweet treat?
    • Little Spoon Smoothies come in three different categories: fruit + veggie, chia-infused and dairy-free overnight oats. 
    • Getting your greens has never been easier (or tastier) than with our flavors like Green Dream and Tropical Greens! In the mood for a good snack powered by the fiber and Omega 3s of chia seeds? That’s where Cherry Berry Chia Pudding and Mango Coconut Chia Pudding Smoothies come in. Didn’t think these flavors could get any better? Well, they just did with a dairy-free take on a breakfast classic—Peachy Berry Bliss and Apple Cinnamon Overnight Oats Smoothies.
    • With this many options to choose from, we’re confident that any flavor is sure to hit every corner of your little one’s taste buds!
  • YoGos – Ready for an on-the-go power up that packs a protein and probiotic punch? Meet our gut-friendly, whole milk Greek yogurt pouches—aka YoGos!
    • YoGos were made to accompany your little ones on all of their adventures by delivering real fruits and veggies with 0g added sugar, probiotics and 4g of protein in a perfectly, pocket-sized, easy graspable pouch. So why whole milk?
    • Whole milk products contribute important nutrients to the diet such as calcium, B12 fat and protein, which ultimately helps fuel your kiddos with the energy they need to seize the day!

Big Kid Bites (1–7 Years)

  • Plates – As your toddler grows into a full-fledged mini human with big opinions, we know mealtime can become a battle. One day, they love chicken. The next? Absolutely not.
    • That’s why our heat and eat Plates are picky-eater approved—made with flavors that kids crave and ingredients parents want. Each plate is crafted with hidden veggies and superfoods in every bite, making them balanced without the junk.
    • Some of our favorites include Mac and Three Cheese (made with hidden butternut squash), Chicken Super Nuggets (powered by kale, carrot and cauliflower), and Spinach and Cheese Ravioli (topped with a hidden veggie marinara sauce). And because we know every kid is different, we offer vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegetarian options to cater to all kinds of kiddos. 
  • Lunchers – Meet the lunchbox hero you’ve been waiting for. Our build-it-yourself Lunchers are a better-for-you twist on childhood favorites.
    • Lunchers are made with big-kid-approved, craveable flavors with high-quality, non-GMO ingredients. Plus, each Luncher packs a punch of 10g+ protein per meal! 
    • Our favorites include the Easy Cheesy Pizza and Chicken Dunkers—sound familiar to your nostalgic childhood favorites?
  • Snacks – Our junk-free, non-GMO snacks are made with clean ingredients that fuel your kiddo—without the sugar crashes or artificial nonsense. The best part? Little Spoon Snacks are made with hidden veggies, superfoods and contain 0g of added sugar!
    • Whether your kiddo is looking for something with that perfect crunch (Veggie Loops), a peel-and-eat fruit snack (Fruit Rippers), a sweet and salty dippable treat (Dipsters), or a soft-baked bar reminiscent of your homemade cookies (Oat Bakes), there is seriously something for everyone. 
    • These snacks are perfect for tossing in a lunchbox, keeping in the diaper bag, or having on hand for those “Mom, I’m hungry” moments (which, let’s be real, are all day long).
