Baby Food

Attn: Giveaway at the bottom of this post!

Okay I admit I don’t have a baby anymore but when an awesome gourmet, organic baby food store offered to give away some of their awesome baby food to one of my readers I had to see just how awesome it really was first. The store, the pictures, the descriptions… it all made me feel like I was about to order from a posh New York City baby eatery where Carrie Bradshaw might go if she had a baby.

And boy oh boy, did Yummy In My Tummy deliver! We got a large selection of baby food cups shipped overnight and they were not quite frozen, but certainly frosty when they reached us. Myself, my three year old, and my five year old got to be the taste testers from Stage 1 selections to stage 3. If it was good enough for me to eat and say “YUM!” than I know any baby would be delighted to eat it.

Have you ever tasted the baby food that you get at grocery stores? Yum is often the LAST word that comes to mind. This is why I made my own baby food because the alternative tasted disgusting, it had preservatives in it, and it wasn’t fresh and organic. Yummy In My Tummy baby food though tasted VERY fresh…like it was just made at home. And it is…kinda. ;)

Yummy In My Tummy was founded by two parents who wanted better organic baby food for their new baby. The father, Michael Stanley, has fifteen years of restaurant experience and a degree in Culinary Art from the Culinary Institute of America. He began researching and testing recipes that his daughter would love. Soon Chef James Casterlin joined him and his wife and Yummy In My Tummy was born.

yummy in my tummy purees

They have 3 menus… Simple and Smooth Stage 1 Menu, Textured and Tasty Stage 2 Menu, and Savory and Scrumptious Stage 3 Mini Meals. They were ALL divine! We tried many, many flavors but some that I was most impressed with were sweet potatoes, butternut squash, baked apples, apples & cranberries, apples, pears, & Raisins, beets & carrots, broccoli & pears, and candied yams. They are gourmet in taste and texture.

Yummy In My Tummy Baby Food is:

  • Comprised of the freshest, most nutritious and tasty USDA certified organic produce
  • Made for baby Stages 1-3 with seasonal specials throughout the year
  • Specials are available in each of the three stages and change each week, with a focus on seasonality and local produce availability
  • Convenient and shipped to your door through our delivery service
  • The food is then packaged in BPA-free, phthalate-free, BHT-free, and BHA-free barrier containers. If this place had been around when my babies were little I would have ordered for sure!

      I just stumbled upon your blog. I have been starting to look at organic baby foods for my baby since she will be starting them soon. These look really cool! The choices for organic are few and far between where we live.

    2. Morgan says:

      I would LOVE to win this baby food my little sweetie! I am making my own baby food for him, but it can get so busy with three boys! Thanks for the giveaway! Love your blog…

    3. Julie says:

      YAY for such a wonderful giveaway!! I have heard many great things about this brand before and would love to try it out. I am currently pregnant with out first baby and definitely plan to make my own baby food when that time comes. Thanks for this opportunity!! And Happy Earth Day!!

    4. Condo Blues says:

      I like to have organic food on hand for little visitors so these frozen babies would be perfect. I also cook and bake for big people (and pets) using baby food as a easy puree.

    5. Lauren says:

      I would love to gift this to my friend with a little 4 month old at home – Im sure she could use these :)

    6. Manda says:

      I am very pround to say that my sister already orders from this company!!! However, I’m she would be delighted if I sent her some more ;) Her twin boys love these little snacks to go!

    7. Amber says:

      I sure wish this was available near me. Nonetheless, I would love to win some of these products~yum! My son would love these, and the mini-meals look delicious, even for me. :)

    8. Sikantis says:

      Isn’t it still the best to prepare your own organic baby food made from fresh vegetables and fruits?

    9. This looks awesome! My baby is almost two and of course eating fresh what we eat though I did make my own baby food with all my littles. I do have a friend who has twin boys and this would be a blessing for her! If I win I will give them to her for a nice organic treat! :) Thank you.

    10. Wow! This is so exciting!!! Thank you :)

    11. melissa says:

      I have a 10 mo old so this would be sooo great! I make almost all of his food but this would be fun to try!

    12. Sarah says:

      These sound good. I am making my own baby food right now, but would love to try these.

    13. Melynda says:

      I make my own food, too, but is nice to have something pre-made once in awhile, so we’d love to give it a try! Thanks for the giveaway.

    14. I woud LOVE LOVE LOVE to win this! I make my own and would love a little break. ;-)

    15. Nicole says:

      sounds like yummy in everyone’s tummy!!

    16. Roberta says:

      Awesome product..I would love to give it a try, I also twittered your post, I’m 1phenomenal1

    17. amy thompson says:

      My babe is almost out of the baby food stage, but I bet he’d still go for some of those stage 3 ones if they’re as good as you say!

    18. amy thompson says:

      I’m also linking to your blog via designmom.com where I’m guestblogging next week. The post won’t show up until Tuesday though; it’s about green smoothies:)

    19. Greta says:

      This sounds interesting! I just started making baby food for my son and would love to test this food too. Also, I have been reading your blog for about a week now and think it’s great! So informative!

    20. Joan says:

      Even though I make all our baby food from organic fruits and veggies at home, I wouldn’t mind trying this.

    21. Kelly says:

      My 17 mo DD has decided that she only likes the texture of pureed veggies! While I love the Earth’s Best Organic that we are using, this would be a serious treat…and we could even freeze some of the ‘extra’ (if such a thing exists!) for our new little one later this summer.

    22. Brianne says:

      I am always looking for better baby foods. I make most of the food for my 11month old daughter, but i love to have something on hand for days when we are in a rush! She is a great eater, but she refuses to eat “grocery store” baby food– she wants the real stuff! Thanks for all of your great posts, I really enjoy reading them!

    23. Angelique Z. says:

      Thank you for the blog and for the cool giveaways. Little Robin looks interested in the food!

    24. Candice says:

      I would love to try these for my baby that is on the way. I made most of my own food for my first baby. It would be nice to have a fresh backup!

    25. Beth Ray says:

      I just started making homemade baby food for my 6 month old. I’m interested in this line though. Very cool.

    26. julie says:

      Wish I knew about this earlier!

    27. Alicia says:

      This sounds awesome!! I am very interested in doing this for my baby. They sound delicious!!

    28. Colleen Downey says:

      Thanks for sharing such a great product! I will for sure have to check it out!

    29. Kelly says:

      This looks really tasty. It seems similar to the TastyBaby company’s product. I know my baby would love it!

    30. Jackie says:

      What a cool giveaway! I wish these had been around with my older 2 kids. But with my third about to start solids in a few months, these would be great! Please enter me – Thanks!

    31. Molomatic says:

      Yum, those meals sound fabulous!! Thanks

    32. Melissa says:

      YUM! With a 1,2 & 3 yr old, its nice to have quality food on hand for my 1 yr old when things get busy. Especially with summer coming its would nice to have something quick and easy to pack for outings. Thanks for opportunity!

    33. Lindsay says:

      SOunds great I hope I win

    34. Eliza says:

      Sounds like a yummy treat for my soon to be born baby!

    35. Erin says:

      I would LOVE to win this! I think my 1 year old would really like it!

    36. Deanna says:

      I’d love to have my son try these!

    37. Doris says:

      Haven’t heard of this brand before but it sounds good! Added on to my facebook.

    38. I loved making my first daughter’s food, but now with my second it’s hard to find the time to make her food. I’m trying my best, but like the extra help sometimes and this looks great!

    39. Laura says:

      I have been reading for a little while now, and what better time to comment? I’ve been making my son’s food for a few months, but with the fruit and vegetable pickings in Alaska, it would be nice to have some of these on hand!

    40. a. says:

      well… doesnt this look good. my partner and i have been talking a lot about babies and being green ourselves, we want our lil mouths to enjoy what they eat. we’ve talked about making our own and such… but this doesnt look bad. thanks for your insight with milk, diapers, and food. i’ve learned a lot.

    41. tricia says:

      We have been making our own baby food, but that looks much better than what I make. Thanks,
      Tricia

    42. Lisa says:

      This sounds awesome! Last week I deboned an organic chicken, boiled carrots in the broth and pureed it for my 9 month old. Healthy, but time consuming! With four kiddos ages 5 and under, it’s a challenge. Yummy in My Tummy sounds like a perfect solution!

    43. Stephanie says:

      OMG I totally hope I win!!! My 8 month old will be in heaven. Thanks Tiffany!

    44. Michelle McHugh says:

      My friend forwarded your posting to me. We are first time parents and make our own baby food for our 7 month old. I always love trying other homemade baby food and would love to win this. Thanks!!!

    45. Laura says:

      I made some organic baby food for my daughter, and she literally threw up when she tasted it— Help! I obviously don’t know what I’m doing!

    46. Rebecca says:

      I fed my two oldest the gross baby food and now with this one I have been making my own but would love to try this brand!

    47. Angela says:

      Oh how wonderful! A company (parents) that thinks like so many of us–and is DOING something about it. I have an 8 month old boy and we are just now looking into solids…a friend told me about your blog…and wha-lah—i found this entry on “Yummy in my tummy…”. THANK YOU for this heads-up and although winning would be awesome, i am just thankful to have heard about this ‘mindful’ company. Little digestive systems are soooooooo very delicate, and i want to treat ours RIGHT from the get go…. Yum nums in the tum tums!

    48. Becki says:

      This actually looks “good”. Love the packaging too!

    49. Trinity says:

      Wow- the baby food sounded so good that my stomach started growling! My little one will be starting to eat “real” food soon, and this give-away would be great for her! I am wanting to make my own baby food for her, so it would be great to try out some amazing baby food before I get started. :) Thanks for letting us know about this product.

    50. Kylie says:

      This would be great to try out. We are getting ready for a cross country move and making the baby food while packing up the house is getting a little tough.

      Love the blog btw!
