Little Bellies free review

Little Bellies is passionate about providing wholesome and delicious foods for babies, toddlers and kids, and is excited to share a selection of their snacks in our free trial.

Little Bellies was founded by two brothers after one of their children was diagnosed with severe sensitivities to food. The safe snack options at the time were limited so they made it their mission to make simple, wholesome, age-and-stage appropriate snacks that parents could trust. The Little Bellies range is safe for self-feeding and certified organic with no artificial colours or flavours.

The Little Bellies TASTY TEXTURES range for 7+ months babies introduces soft shapes, with subtle flavours and new texture experiences for mini mouths, that little fingers can hold.

The MORE TO EXPLORE range for 10+ months babies brings new adventures in taste, shape and texture to help promote independence.

The TODDLERS IN TRAINING range for 12+ months toddlers includes snacks with more adventurous textures, shapes and flavours to encourage a positive transition to toddlerhood.

    I really enjoyed trying these products with my 16-month-old. The Organic Blueberry & Apple Yoghurt Melts were a hit, she absolutely loved them! I also really appreciated the resealable packaging, which made them so convenient for keeping fresh and taking out and about. My only downside is that they’re a little on the expensive side, but they’re definitely a treat we’ll continue to buy.

    The Organic Tomato Fiddlesticks were another winner. She really enjoyed them, and I’ve already repurchased them twice since the trial because they’re such an easy, convenient snack and she just goes through them so quickly. Great snack!

    Unfortunately, the Organic Banana Date & Oat Bars were a miss for us. I offered them to her several times, but she just wasn’t interested.

    This is a fantastic brand, and my daughter loves most of their products. It was a fun trial, and I’ll definitely be buying more in the future. They’re so convenient to have on hand, especially for busy days or when going out.

    We recieved blueberry and apple yoghurt melts cheese and herb fiddle sticks and apricot date and oat bars.

    All of these were a huge hit for my nearly 2yr old! She is a fussy eater who love snack food so it’s nice to feel like your giving her something healthy!!
    The yoghurt melts were one of her faves, I found her in the pantry with them all tipped out and helping herself!
    The apricot date bars she has before and loves! I love the way they look like little pieces of chocolate and thinks she’s having a really special treat.
    The fiddle sticks were her least fave she did eat some of them weren’t quite to her taste buds.

    Overall all products were great and I would buy them again but maybe a different flavour of the fiddlesticks next time!

    My one year old was sent the blueberry & Apple Yoghurt Melts, Banana, Date & Oat Bars, and Tomato Fiddlesticks.

    All three were big hits. But I found the bars the most convenient for on the go, and the fiddlesticks were certainly his favourite on account of the crunch factor. I also tried the fiddlesticks and was surprised how good they were- reminded me of the tomato flavoured munchos. While he also enjoyed them, the yoghurt drops were my least favourite as they required more mum admin at his age as they were difficult for him to handle, so I needed to feed them to him, and they were much more messy so less convenient for on the go.
