Here to make keeping your kid healthy easy.

Much of the baby food on grocery store shelves is heavily processed with extreme heat so it can last for years on a shelf, and often has preservatives, additives and fortifiers. In the last two years, there has been a congressional report published on the quality of popular baby food brands, quantities of heavy metals and traceability concerns. Not cool, and not the quality nutrition our kids deserve. At Little Spoon, we use an FDA approved food safety technique, cold-pressure, not heat pasteurization, to ensure our Babyblends and Smoothies are safe and stay fresh in your fridge for 14 days or freezer for up to 3 months. We source from trusted suppliers and farmers and our Babyblends and Smoothies are USDA Certified Organic and made with non-gmo ingredients. We work with pediatricians and leading experts to develop blends that fit every eating stage for your baby, from first bites and single-ingredient blends through to advanced puree recipes. Our blends serve as a great companion to baby-led weaning and our complex blends offer thicker textures and whole pieces of food as your baby ages. For on-the-go mealtime, our Smoothies are your go-to for easy meals. Purees are under $3 per blend and are delivered across the US. Our Plates, a line of healthy toddler and kids meals, are made fresh and with a focus on balanced nutrition. Packed with veggies & superfoods, you’ll never find preservatives, additives or fillers in our meals. We offer vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and vegetarian options, plus a variety of cuisines and flavors — from finger foods to complete meals with sauces and new flavors for your kiddo to discover. Little Spoon is the best meal delivery option for picky eaters and we are constantly adding new Plates to our menu. Plates are under $5 per meal and are delivered across the US. Our Smoothies serve as healthy snacks for toddlers & kids and the best pouch option for babies as an on-the-go meal. Unlike grocery store options, our line is cold-pressed, featuring 100% organic ingredients and offers a range of flavors your kiddo will love, with ingredients you want. Smoothies are under $2.50 per pouch and are delivered across the US. We started Little Spoon so parents everywhere can easily and simply get fresh, high quality, healthy organic meals for their children. No corners cut.
We don’t currently offer a trial given the fresh nature of our products, but we offer small and extra small plan sizes that enable flexibility to try us out! You can pause, skip or cancel future orders at any time.
Plates are made for early finger food eaters through to big kid bites. We have intentionally created recipes that make it easy for parents to transition out of the puree stage into our Plates with pinchable, mashable tots, bites and finger foods that toddlers and big kids love, too. We also offer a range of Plates for more advanced eaters comfortable with using a fork, eating sauces and exploring new, adventurous flavors. Crafted for everyone (yes, even picky eaters love Plates!) with hidden veggies & preservative-free ingredients in every bite, Little Spoon offers the best meal delivery service for parents.
Our purees are made with pediatricians and nutritionists to ensure that we take into account your baby’s personal development at each stage. For very first bites, we have a range of single-ingredient and simple purees made for starting solids. As your child ages, we offer advanced blends that include more ingredients, textures and eventually, whole pieces of food. We also have a line of Smoothies, the best pouches for babies and toddlers as an on-the-go meal. Like our blends, they’re 100% organic, non-GMO and feature a wide range of ingredients. If you are exploring baby-led weaning, Babyblends and Smoothies offer a great companion to ensure your baby gets the nutrients they need along the way. Our Plates also include a range of early finger foods that baby-led weaning parents love!
Your child’s health is our #1 priority and we will always be transparent about our ingredients, nutritional information and recipes. When it comes to your baby, we know how upsetting the recent congressional report on heavy metals in grocery store baby food was for parents. At Little Spoon, we have always done things differently. All of our babyblends are 100% plant-based, vegan and made with the highest quality ingredients, 100% organic and non-GMO. We focus on a wide variety to diverse your little one’s diet, we never use rice (high in organic and inorganic arsenic), fortifiers or additives in our blends. We use cold-pressure technology as an alternative to heat pasteurization, killing harmful bacteria without the use of anything artificial. This allows our Babyblends and Smoothies to stay fresh in the fridge for up to 14 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. Occasionally, we use a touch of organic lemon to naturally preserve freshness (the way you might squeeze a few drops of lemon on an apple to prevent browning). When it comes to your toddler and big kid, our Plates are made with the highest quality ingredients. Like all our products, we work with trusted farmers and suppliers to offer your child the best. We do not use any artificial sugars, preservatives, additives or dyes, instead we utilize a Freshlock Seal™. It might look a little strange, but this vacuum seal allows us to keep our meals fresh without any harmful preservatives. It’s totally safe, BPA/BPS-free and locks in food freshness so your Plates last 14 days in the fridge or up to 3 months in the freezer. We work hard to provide a range of allergy-friendly options for your kiddo. Always feel free to reach out to us at [email protected] or to send us a question in the chat feature with any questions on allergen concerns.
Typically, babies are ready to start solids between 4-6 months. We always recommend talking to your pediatrician to discuss your baby’s needs when it comes to starting solids. There are a few telltale signs that your baby may be ready: Sitting up with little to no support Strong head control Has outgrown their tongue thrust reflex Is starting to show interest in food and what those around are eating
Your delivery will ship out the week after your order is placed as long as it is placed by Saturday at 5PM ET, otherwise it will ship the following week. All future orders will ship every two weeks after that unless you make changes to the delivery schedule from within your Little Spoon account. All changes must be completed by 5PM ET prior to your delivery week. Please note we are experiencing high demand, which can impact delivery estimates. The most up to date tracking information will be through the link sent to you on Tuesdays.
All your Little Spoon products can be stored in the fridge for up to 14 days, or in your freezer for up to 3 months. Our Plates are designed to be heated in the microwave or oven, you can check out all the heating details by clicking on any Plate on our menu page to check out recommendations. Our Blends can be eaten at a range of temperatures, whatever works best for your baby! To warm up your blend, we recommend putting the container in a microwaveable safe, shallow bowl of warm water and stirring until heated. If you wish to microwave, simply pour the puree into a microwave safe dish. Our Smoothies are designed to be enjoyed cold. Feel free to take your Smoothie on the go with you for up to 4 hours without refrigeration. If you’re traveling for longer, we’d recommend bringing an ice pack or freezing your Smoothie to naturally thaw throughout the day.
Once you sign up for Little Spoon, you can modify your menu, update your plan size, skip an order, pause or cancel with ease. The cutoff to make changes to your plan is Saturday 5PM ET. One thing to note, first orders cannot be cancelled, but can be easily shifted up to 4 weeks for flexibility. If you have any questions, please reach out to us at [email protected] or use the chat feature.
We’ve designed our meals for all types of eaters. If your kiddo isn’t enjoying their new foods at first, don’t give up! Try adding a side of something new, pairing with one of our sauces, and rotating in a new Plate — food exposure takes time, you’ve got this! Feel good about every Plate—we’ve packed veggies and superfoods into every Little Spoon meal to ensure a nutrient-dense meal, everytime. When it comes to our Babyblends, whether your little one is trying a new ingredient for the first time or tenth, don’t give up! Try swapping to a new ingredient and returning at a later date. Your little one is developing and their taste will change! It can take up to 15 tries on one ingredient for your little to fall in love. Read up on our top Starting Solids tips on Is This Normal.
We rotate our Babyblends menu every few months, offering new limited edition blends that feature seasonal ingredients. Our line of healthy toddler & kid’s food, Plates, has new menu items each month, offering more and more options for your growing kiddo.

We're big fans of purees (our name is Little SPOON, after all 🥄). But we love that some parents and littles want to take a more tiny hands-on approach on their journey into solids! Baby-led weaning is quickly becoming a popular way to introduce babies to whole and finger foods - skip the spoon-feeding and head straight to self-feeding. BLW can be introduced as young as 6 months old, and can be a great way for your mini to develop crucial hand-eye coordination, motor skills, chewing skills, and of course, healthy and adventurous eating habits. We're all about supporting parents and their babies on whichever path they take when it comes to introducing solids. We have lots of families that start with Babyblends and then transition quickly into Plates. We also have families that dive right into the big leagues with their little eaters! Our Plates line contains several meals that are perfect for beginner or experienced BLWers: Cheesy Black Bean Pupusas with Southwest Veggie Quinoa Chicken Pot Stickers with Quinoa Veggie Stir Fry and Edamame Mac and Three Cheese With Invisible Butternut Squash and Carrots Turkey Kale Sliders With Veggie Millet Poppers and Carrots Three Cheese Egg Bites with Sweet Potato Hash Veggie Tenders with Broccoli As with anything having to do with your mini, we recommend discussing BLW with your pediatrician to see if it's the right fit for your family. If your babe is ready to take a toothless bite out of mealtime, we're happy to help modify your menus or offer suggestions to get started! 🍽️
We know how frustrating it can be to see your baby refusing food. But be patient before you give up on the food - the average baby needs to taste a food up to 15 times before recognizing it and developing a taste for it. It’s all part of palate training and perfectly normal. Pro tip? Try mixing a new flavor in with a familiar one to help ease your baby into trying new things! You can read more tips here.
Our Babyblends are OU Kosher certified, the world’s largest and most recognized kosher certification agency. Our blends are also Kosher Pareve (no dairy or meat). Our Plates are not currently kosher certified.

Out of stock - for a variety of reasons

There has been an acute shortage of infant formula in the US for several months now. The reason for this is a number of circumstances. Initially, powdered baby food production declined due to supply chain disruption and staffing shortages due to the COVID-19 pandemic.. Then in February, US pharmaceutical company Abbott was forced to close a Michigan baby food plant after the death of two babies.

The tragedy allegedly occurred due to infection with pathogenic bacteria. However, a review by the Food and Drug Administration showed that the product was in order, and an agreement was reached last week to resume production at Abbott. However, it will be several weeks before dry mix appears on supermarket shelves. nine0005

The first batch covered 15 percent of needs

Therefore, US President Joseph Biden ordered that baby food be shipped by US military transport aircraft from Europe. On Sunday evening, on Twitter, he announced the second such flight, which will bring baby food from the Swiss company Nestlé to the United States.

The first shipment of milk formula from the EU covered about 15 percent of emergency needs, Brian Deese, political and economic adviser to the President of the United States, told CNN. The infant formula was brought to Indiana, where Nestlé's headquarters are located. There, the product will be tested for quality in the laboratory, after which it will be distributed to American supermarkets. nine0005

Pricing Question: Why New York Declared a State of Emergency over Infant Formula

New York City declared a state of emergency over a shortage of infant formula after the factory of Abbott Nutrition, its largest manufacturer, was temporarily closed. Forbes Life understands why the city authorities took this measure and why there could be a shortage

On May 22, it was announced that New York City Mayor Eric Adams signed an executive order declaring a state of emergency in the city due to a nationwide shortage of infant formula due to product recalls and the temporary closure of the production line of Abbott Nutrition, one of the largest suppliers baby food in the USA. nine0005

This decision by the authorities will help to keep the prices of baby food, avoid markups and speculation in the market in a situation where problems with the supply of mixtures are observed throughout the country. They are now in short supply at more than 40% of market demand, and the closure of Abbott's Michigan plant after reports of four cases of infant bacterial infection exacerbated the situation. This not only reduced production, but also disrupted supply chains among other manufacturers in most US states, and New York was no exception. nine0005

Mayor Eric Adams promised mothers and families that "the city will do everything in its power to help get through this difficult period." As part of the New York City Mayor's Executive Order, the City's Department of Consumer and Worker Protection is empowered to crack down on retailers if they try to "capitalize on this crisis."

State of emergency ( - Forbes Life ) is a fairly common practice in the United States that allows the leadership of a city or state to gain more power in making economic decisions, to a greater extent control the business. For example, a similar decree was introduced by Mayor Bill de Blasio in 2020 at the beginning of the pandemic, when stores began to increase prices for hand sanitizer and masks. nine0005

If in everyday life the city authorities cannot dictate at what price to sell infant formula or any other essential goods, then the introduction of a state of emergency is a clear signal for society and business, a New Yorker, journalist and author of the YouTube channel told Forbes Life “Once Upon a Time in America” by Alina Polyanskikh: “Such decrees clearly show that now we are in power, you obey us and follow our orders, and violators will subsequently be held accountable. ” nine0005

So, in 2012, the devastating hurricane Sandy passed through New York, a few days later the residents of the city faced an acute shortage of gasoline, the lack of fuel after the hurricane led to many hours of queues. To avoid sharp price hikes, New York authorities have decided to introduce a state of emergency. The US Department of Defense deployed five mobile filling stations within the city, where motorists could fill up with 40 liters of gasoline for free. nine0005

Deliveries were accompanied by logistical costs - transport had to make a serious "detour" to bring fuel to the city. In this regard, a slight increase in the price of gasoline followed - sellers sought to cover additional costs and at least break even. As soon as the consequences of the hurricane were eliminated, lawsuits began against the owners of gas stations that violated consumer rights. “This is standard American practice: the business of the authorities is to prevent and introduce restrictive measures, the task of business is to obey, and if it refuses to cooperate in a difficult time for the city and the country, then the consequences will be inevitable. The introduction of a special provision is primarily an economic reality for the United States, associated with financial benefits and costs, ”recalls Polyanskikh. nine0005

According to the journalist, the decree adopted by Adams helps the city authorities in two directions at once - the price issue turns into a reputational one. For the mayor, this is also a matter of reputation - Adams now looks like a fighter for children, sharing the feelings of any mother who cannot feed her child.

Although this measure does not speed up shipments, it will allow for the distribution of goods to be regulated. Thanks to the state of emergency decree, baby food will be distributed in a strictly defined order: the mixtures will first be sent to hospitals and social institutions. And already the second wave will go to the shelves of pharmacies and shops. Thus, the most vulnerable groups of the population will have guaranteed access to baby food, and those who have the financial means will not buy out all the supplies. In addition, the option is still available to bring the child to any hospital in New York to be fed there. nine0005

“Now, as soon as the dust settles, the main topic for discussion will be the question of how such a situation became possible at all — why it was not foreseen, not calculated, and this question will be addressed not only to suppliers,” says Alina Polyanskikh.

At the federal level, the government took emergency action against nutritional deficiencies last week - President Joe Biden resorted to the Defense Production Act, which allows businesses to be forced to carry out specific orders, now suppliers of ingredients needed for infant formula are required to send them to manufacturers of the final product.
