Review: Toddler Taste Testing The Super Yummies

As the weather continues to be a law unto itself my hubby and eldest daughter took full advantage of the sunshine yesterday with a geocaching trip that took them along The Ridgeway.

These days we rarely leave home without packing a changing bag and having a carrier to hand as little legs can’t toddle very far. The things we pack in our changing bag haven’t differed very much from the early baby days with the eldest except now we pack for two and carry snacks too.

Today’s snacks were sent to us by Cow&Gate after I applied for my eldest to be a Toddler Taste Tester. I was delighted when she was chosen to taste these and was thrilled to see how big the hamper was.

What was in the Hamper?

Inside there were four packets of snacks to take out with us on day trips.

• Spinach Breadsticks
• Tomato & Herb Breadsticks
• Apple & Orange Rice Cakes
• Pear & Berries Rice Cakes

She also received some Super Yummies pouches:

• Mixed berries and coconut squeeze
• Apple and forest fruits yoghurt
• Strawberry, kiwi and banana squeeze

What’s on the Packaging?

Not one for giving my children sweet snacks particularly as I’m Type 2 Diabetic I was delighted to hear of their Super Yummies Promise of No added salt or sugar. Of course there’s no getting away from sugar completely in that fruit contains fructose but it’s great to know that Cow&Gate are considerate of our little ones and thinking of their futures.  

They also state on their packaging that they have worked with mums and nutritionists in developing their products. Each packet and pouch contains nutritional goodness whether it is part of their five a day, a source of fibre or calcium. These packets and pouches are geared up to help your little explorer from 12 months up feed themselves nourishing food that is right for them.

The Verdict

According to Daddy the Toddler loved each and every rice cake she devoured and even asked for more. With a future trip to France in store come autumn and no doubt other day trips beforehand I will keep an eye out for these delicious snacks in store.

What nutritional snacks do your little ones enjoy?
