My eight-month-old loves the carrot sticks, cheese puffs and apple rice cakes. They're great smelling and tasting and the price is great. Perfect, healthy snacks for on the go without taking up too much room or needing to heat like jars. I will definitely be seeking out most of these products again in the future.Mum of 2, Lauren

Lupilu Stage 1 Fruit and Veg Pouch – Carrot, Apple and Parsnips, MadeForMums Joint Silver Award Winner

A great mixture of wholesome veg and tasty fruit, these pouches are Soil Association certified organic, have no added sugar or salt, are dairy and gluten-free and suitable for vegetarians.

What our MadeForMums Awards Judges say about Lupilu Stage 1 Fruit and Veg Pouch – Carrot, Apple and Parsnips:

“The Lupilu Apple, Carrot and Parsnip pouch was a great hit with our little boy, he loved it served cold and warmed through. The design makes it easy to use on the go as well as it can be squeezed straight onto a spoon. The easy screw cap also means it can be resealed if they don't want it all in one sitting - the product also did not leak when we tested it,” Mum of 1, Emily.

“I really like that this blend contains 2 veg to 1 fruit, and that whilst they are all naturally sweet foods, the overall taste is not overly so. The size and shape of the pouch is really convenient as with all of its competitors, but what marks it out for me is the very pleasing price tag. Having a 19-month-old we do not tend to use pouches any more, although when out and about and getting a bit whingey I do know a pouch will placate him - quite convinced he thinks it's a smoothie. I would not hesitate to recommend Lupilu Pouches,” Mum of 2, Katy.

“The taste was lovely – my little one ate every last drop. The pouch is very handy for on the go or for busy periods when there isn't time to mash and puree. It would also be useful for older children who could eat the fruit straight from the pack. I tasted the product and it was pleasant and has a lovely smooth texture for little mouths. It's useful that it can be resealed and kept in the fridge for 48 hours.” Mum of 1, Kathryn

“My son loved this. It has a great texture and flavour and the pouch makes for easy storage. The fact it can be used for more than one meal is a huge plus – we add this to his breakfast porridge which he now wolfs down. It is a great price and is easily as good quality as the more expensive brands of this type. I would definitely recommend.Mum of 4, Jo

Warning For Mothers

I understand there is a warning on the back but need to get the message out to mothers just to inform them I found later a bit of plastic from the lid on his tray when I cleaned it. I usually give the packet for Sensory and trying to figure out what to do and I am always watching him. But never expected a little piece. I will be more careful from now on. Please post and get message out.

Purchased in at ALDI for $0. 89.

Terrible

We went to aldi and purchased a selection of mamia puree baby foods in the twist top pouches.
After our child ate them she was up all night with a sugar high. We tried it again another day as we thought it was something else, but sure enough it happened again after she ate these products.
After researching we found out they are Heinz products just re labeled. Unfortunately Heinz baby foods have been tested and they are high in sugars with low nutritional value.
Please be careful when choosing baby foods and research :)

features of the production of organic baby food

From the first days of a child's life, every mother takes care of his health and proper development. Many young mothers are interested in the question of what is the best way to feed a baby and whether it is possible to buy really healthy baby food.

Lena Titok went to the farm, whose products are used for the production of HiPP baby food, to see bio-farming in action with her own eyes.

Kaliningrad welcomes us with bright sun and summer heat. Having plunged into a minibus, we are heading for the city of Mamonovo - at the very border with Poland. It is here that the HiPP baby food factory is located.

As we will learn later, not the only one: HiPP products, in addition to Russia, are also produced in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Croatia and Hungary. The plant in the Kaliningrad region was opened in 2009year. It is located on an area of ​​35 hectares, far from highways and hazardous industries. This is the first bioorganic production in Russia.

The plant produces fruit, vegetable and meat purees in glass jars, as well as juices - more than a hundred items in total. About 50 million cans a year come off the conveyor, and this is when working in one shift!

ADVERTISING - CONTINUED BELOW

After a short presentation and a tour of the factory, during which we are shown the entire production process, we go to the quality control laboratory. Here they check not only the taste of the product and its appearance, but also compliance with high bio-standards. The laboratory even has a special apparatus for measuring the effort required to open a jar! At HiPP, they make sure that the mother can easily handle the packaging, even holding the baby in her arms.

Next, we are offered to try the plant's products ourselves. Dozens of jars appear in front of us - a real feast. Meat, vegetable, fruit... the variety of tastes will not leave indifferent even the most capricious gourmet. At some point, I catch myself thinking that I don’t mind switching to baby food instead of a traditional lunch: fast, healthy and very tasty.

But the most interesting is ahead of us. Two hours on the road - and we are at the bio-farm in Podagi.

The farm, owned by the Hipp family, is located in Poland, 80 kilometers from Gdansk. Potatoes, carrots, wheat, rye, oats and spelt are grown on an area of ​​2,000 hectares. In addition, 1,000 Agnus cows and 600 black-headed sheep graze freely here. Surprisingly, it is a fact: no chemicals and harmful technologies are used here for plants - only organic fertilizers. Animals eat only fresh grass and spend most of the year outdoors. And the air here is really fresh: you understand this from the first minutes of your stay. The trees near the house where we are to spend the next night were chosen by storks. Frogs are croaking in a nearby pond. It smells of cut hay and lindens.

The owner of the farm, Stefan Hipp, is a true bio-farming guru. He knows everything about the benefits of earthworms, the properties of clover necessary to saturate the soil with nitrogen, and the mutual benefits that onions and carrots planted side by side bring to each other. And he just loves nature.

Hipp has a rich and interesting history. The first baby food of this brand appeared in the 19th century. The wife of pastry chef Josef Hipp from the German town of Pfaffenhofen had problems feeding her children. Josef, who produced his own flour and crackers, decided to help his wife: he prepared a mixture of crushed crackers and milk, which the children really liked. Thus, the idea arose to sell natural treats for kids in their own confectionery. And at 19In 32, Josef's son, Georg, founded his own production of baby food under the HiPP brand. Gradually, this name turned into a brand recognizable all over the world.

HiPP products are marketed under their own BIO label and contain organic ingredients. Thanks to multi-stage control, only really high-quality and environmentally friendly ingredients get into baby food jars. In 1956, Georg Hipp was inspired by the idea of ​​organic farming and switched the family farm in Germany to organic production. Georg's son, Klaus, continued his father's work: he refused to use chemicals and artificial additives in the products he makes. Klaus explains his success very simply - the high quality of HiPP products. And he adds: "For this I vouch for my name."

The ideology of the Hipp family is simple and clear: you cannot raise a healthy child without taking care of the environment. HiPP's motto is "The Best of Nature, the Best of Nature". And the farm in Podagi is a perfect example of the implementation of this principle. Its inhabitants live in amazing harmony with the environment, interference with the life of nature is minimal here. A few years ago, a puddle formed in one of the fields on the farm. The owners of any traditional farm would diligently fill it in to save the land. But on the organic farm, they made a different decision: they left the puddle alone. A year later, it turned into a small lake, around which its own eco-system arose. New plants appeared here, birds and animals settled. The natural balance was not disturbed. At the same time, the amount of the crop did not suffer at all.

On a farm in Podagi, you understand that tasty and healthy products can be obtained without causing any harm to the environment. And it is not at all necessary to use chemicals and fertilizers to grow potatoes or carrots. We just need to competently use the resources that nature itself gives us: wind, sun, water. It is no coincidence that our ancestors fed 15 people from one hectare of land, while we feed only one. So we, the people of the 21st century, still have a lot to learn. 9Ol000

Complementary foods are usually started at 6 months of age: this is the age at which the baby's digestive system is ready to accept foods other than breast milk. Products for the introduction of the first complementary foods should be chosen very carefully. One of the safest options is monocomponent purees. Today, parents can find such products marked “organic” or “BIO” on store shelves: these labels mean that the food consists only of natural ingredients and does not contain any dyes, preservatives, flavors or GMOs. Such monocomponent purees contain only one vegetable, for example, broccoli or cauliflower, which are the safest for a child trying an unfamiliar product for the first time.

What's the difference?

The main difference and the main plus of bio-products is the method of production. The fruits, vegetables and cereals that go into their preparation are grown according to the principles of organic farming, that is, without the use of pesticides, growth regulators, artificial fertilizers and pest control chemicals. In conventional agriculture today, the use of such substances, unfortunately, is quite common. Their traces remain in the final product, so such food can harm the child, who is still very sensitive at an early age.

Organic purees, cereals, soups and drinks are safer for the baby, while retaining their natural rich taste and the maximum amount of nutrients. We do not know how the fruits and vegetables sold in the store or in the market were grown, so making your own purée for the first complementary foods becomes unsafe. Only those parents who grow zucchini, cabbage, carrots and other products themselves and are confident in their quality (like Jamie Oliver) can be confident in the safety of home food.

Organic food is grown only in environmentally friendly conditions, therefore it minimizes the risk of harmful substances entering the child's body and reduces the likelihood of food allergies in the crumbs.
