Did you know?
The US does not have federal regulations in place for limiting the level of chemical contaminants in baby food. In fact, companies are not even required to test their products. That’s why we took matters into our own hands.

- While babies don’t necessarily need cereal, it’s a great way to introduce solids and ensure they get essential nutrients like iron, calcium, zinc, and Vitamin D. Our Baby Cereal is certified organic, top 9 allergen free, rice-free and packed with a whopping 13 vitamins and minerals to support your baby’s growth and development (while being gentle on the tummy, of course). Our customers have been asking us for years to create a cereal they can trust, so we decided to make our own with equally rigorous testing standards. We test for heavy metals (lead, mercury, cadmium and arsenic) + an additional 551 toxins and contaminants. Quality, safety and peace of mind you’d expect from Little Spoon.
- Our Baby Cereal is made with the highest quality whole grain oats, barley, and millet—no rice here! It’s certified organic and Clean Label Project purity award certified, so you can trust that every bite meets our high quality and safety standards. Transparency is at the core of everything we do which is why we test our finished product to ensure it meets our safety standards. Each serving is packed with 13 essential vitamins and minerals to support brain and bone development, immune function, and your baby's overall growth.
- Absolutely! We meet the highest safety and quality standards so you can feel confident feeding your little one. Our cereal is free of the top 9 allergens, rice-free, heavy metal tested, Clean Label Project Purity Award certified and USDA certified organic. Transparency is at the heart of everything we do—we're the first and only baby food company to set publicly available testing standards, inspired by the European Union. We voluntarily hold ourselves to higher internal safety standards than required. You can trust that we’re committed to providing the safest, highest-quality products for your baby.
- You can start introducing our Baby Cereal to your baby at 4 months old as they embark on their starting solids journey. It’s a perfect first food! Always chat with your pediatrician to make sure you have a starting solids plan for your little one.
- Yes! Our Baby Cereal is fortified with essential vitamins and minerals, including iron. One serving provides half of the daily value of iron, which is especially important for breastfed babies.
- Our Baby Cereal is crafted to be as gentle as possible for little tummies and is top 9 allergen free - that means it’s free from common allergens like wheat, dairy, soy, egg, and nuts. However, it does contain barley, which is not gluten-free. We always recommend checking with your pediatrician if you have specific allergen concerns for your baby.
