Little Spoon Babyblends+ vs. Cerebelly: What This First-Time Mama Learned the Hard Way

As a first-time mama to an 8-month-old with opinions (lol), mealtime doesn’t always go as planned. Some days we’re doing full purées and veggie mashups, and other days… I’m lucky if we get a few bites in between teething fuss and a nap strike.

That’s where functional baby food pouches have saved the day. They’re not full meals, but they help bridge the gap—especially when I need an on-the-go option or something with an extra nutrient boost during growth spurts or sick days.

I’ve tried Little Spoon’s Babyblends (including Babyblends+) and Cerebelly, and both have a similar mission: give babies targeted nutrients that support development. But after a few weeks of rotating both in, I found myself reaching for the one I trust most.

Here’s how they compare:

Final Thoughts: Little Spoon Wins for Our Family

Both brands have their strengths, but for our family, Little Spoon’s Babyblends line (yes, including Babyblends+) is the one we stick with. The real ingredients, thoughtful nutrition, and flavor variety just check every box. It’s food I feel good about giving my baby—even on the days when lunch is just a few bites between fusses.Plus, they have rice-free Puffs and Cereal, which are the perfect go-to snacks in between meals. They’re shelf-stable, too, which makes packing them for the park or car super easy!
