Best organic food products for babies and toddlers - tried and tested by mums

What our MadeForMums Awards Judges say about Mamia Apple & Pear Fruit Pots:

“My son loved these fruit pots and the value for money is brill! The pots are quite big and 4 for 99p is a bargain. I also like that you don't have to have them in the fridge so they are good for taking out and about as a simple pudding. The packaging is very eye catching, pointing out all the right information that mums and dads want to know.” Mum of 1, Vicki

“My 18-month-old loves these! They're great for taking out and about and they have a great shelf life which is handy.” Mum of 1, Amy

What our MadeForMums Awards Judges say about Organix Finger Food Range:

“My three-year-old absolutely loves the carrot cake, gingerbread men and the banana rings. He feels like he is getting a treat because cakes and biscuits are a rarity in our house, yet these snacks are very nutritionally beneficial! 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

3. 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.

What our MadeForMums Awards Judges say about Mamia Stage 1 Pouches - Strawberries & Apples:

“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
