5 Best Organic Baby Food and Formula Brands

With first glance at the ingredient list, there is organic whole grains, oats and then a long list of words we couldn't really understand. But what you're really seeing is a list of all of the added vitamins, minerals, and probiotics. Happy Baby adds supplements such as calcium and iron to help your little one grow. What we love about this cereal is that there is endless mixing possibilities. You can mix it with water, pureed juice, breast milk, or any other kind of milk. It can also be mixed in with formula or smoothies as a thickening agent. 

This cereal has a more oatmeal-y flavor than others on the market. What we mean by this is that it's less neautral tasting. Whatever it is, young children seem to love it. For more flavor, parents suggested adding cinnamon or fruit to the cereal. 

The Happy Baby Cereal comes in a BPA-free cannister that keeps the cereal fresh for up to a month. Just mix a few tablespoons of the cereal with whichever liquid you prefer and it's ready! This cereal is the perfect consistency so you can serve it in your child's bottle for on-the-go meals. 

This cereal costs roughly $3.50 for a cannister, making it a slightly pricier option than your average cereal. And by slightly, we mean $0.50 more. However, a cannister typically lasts between 2-4 weeks so in the grand scheme of things, it's not a huge difference.

The Happy Baby Organic Puffs first won us over with their ingredient list. Brown rice flour is the first ingredient unlike most puffs which have wheat. We think you'll be happy knowing these puffs have half the sugar than other puffs on the market. And it's in the form of fruit juice concentrate. 

These puffs taste sweet initially followed by a mild toasted flavor. Children and moms love all 6 flavor varieties. Flavors include: purple carrot and blueberry, strawberry and beet, sweet potato and carrot, apple and broccoli, banana and pumpkin, and kale and spinach. 

We love the packaging of these puffs and we think you will too. The BPA-free container is a lot smaller and more convenient than a box of cereal. Not to mention it just happens to fit perfectly in regular sized cup holders. Make sure to eat the puffs within a week of opening or transfer to an airtight container to prevent them from becoming stale. 

These organic puffs come in at a moderate $17 for a pack of 6, falling in the mid range for kid puffs. 

All of the ingredients in these snacks are USDA certified organic and gluten-free. This includes the cultured reduced fat milk, can sugar, fruit puree, nonfat dry milk, and tapioca starch. However, we do wish Gerber would have left out the cane sugar and instead used fruit juice concentrate to sweeten up these melts. 

These light, airy, bites of yum taste exactly like "astronaut" ice cream, or freeze dried ice cream. If you have never tried freeze dried food, it tastes similar to what the food normally tastes like, but the texture is a little different. These yogurt melts are crunchy to an extent. Then they become soggy and melt once you put them in your mouth. Be sure to not leave them out of the bag for too long as the moisture in the air will make them soggy too.

We love that the bag that these little melts come in is resealable. This makes it perfect for throwing in your purse or diaper bag when errands overlap snack time.

For an organic product made with quality ingredients, $2.75 is a great price. You can find an even better deal on Amazon with the subscribe and save option.
