With a baby food blender, you can give your baby all of the nutrition that they need without the tough texture.<\/p>\r\n<p>A baby food blender helps you wean your baby off the bottle and introduce them to real food. It will also help you save money on expensive formula and start your child on the path towards solid food.<\/p>\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Blender_Vs_Food_Processor_Which_One_is_Better_for_Making_Baby_Food\"><\/span>Blender Vs. Food Processor: Which One is Better for Making Baby Food?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<h4>Blender<\/h4>\r\n<p>A blender works best with liquids or soft solids. However, you&#8217;ll only be able to make large batches of baby food with a blender. This is because most blenders come in huge sizes. A blender can liquefy smoothies, crush ice, and make soups and purees.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Food Processor<\/h4>\r\n<p>A food processor is better for working with solid foods. You can puree, dice, mince, chop, and much more with a food processor. They\u2019re known for being incredibly versatile. However, they usually only work at one speed.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Blender Vs. Food Processor: Which Baby Food Maker is Right for You?<\/h4>\r\n<p>If you\u2019ve got both in your home, you can try to make baby food with each and see which you like better. The blender will work better with liquids and the food processor with solids. However, the best blenders to use are ones specifically designed to make baby food.<\/p>\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Factors_Should_You_Consider_Before_Buying_a_Blender\"><\/span>What Factors Should You Consider Before Buying a Blender?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<h4>How often will you use it?<\/h4>\r\n<p>If you want to use it as little as possible, find one with a high cup capacity.<\/p>\r\n<h4>What will you be blending?<\/h4>\r\n<p>Not all blenders can handle meat. Make sure you know what the blender is capable of blending.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Will you be using it for any other home food making?<\/h4>\r\n<p>Many people use the blender to make smoothies or other foods. If you want to use it for yourself as well, choose a versatile one.<\/p>\r\n<h4>What\u2019s your budget?<\/h4>\r\n<p>Only you can answer this question. You may want to spend more on one that won\u2019t break down as easily, however.<\/p>\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_Baby_Food_Makers_Blenders_Reviews\"><\/span>Best Baby Food Makers &amp; Blenders Reviews<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"BEABA_Babycook_4_in_1_Steam_Cooker_and_Blender\"><\/span>BEABA Babycook 4 in 1 Steam Cooker and Blender<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n<h4>Why We Like It<\/h4>\r\n<p>The steam cooker lets you reheat leftovers right in the device itself.<\/p>\r\n<p>The BEABA Babycook is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.juicersplusblenders.com\/best-portable-blender-travel\/\">small appliance<\/a> weighing 4 pounds with a height of 10 inches. It\u2019s little enough that you can take it anywhere, as it will fit in almost any suitcase or bag. It comes with a 400W motor power and is made from BPA, lead, and Phthalate-free materials.<\/p>\r\n<p>The Babycook comes with a 4.7-cup capacity that makes 6-14 portions at a time. It&#8217;s easy to clean as it&#8217;s made with dishwasher safe materials. It comes with a 1-year limited warranty.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Pros:<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Versatile- it can prepare fruits, vegetables, and raw meat or fish. It can make them at any stage of development, from purees to solids.<\/li>\r\n<li>Easy to use- it automatically shuts off, sounding a timer when it\u2019s done.<\/li>\r\n<li>Cute design- it comes in a variety of gorgeous colors.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>Cons<strong>:<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Pricey- it\u2019s on the more expensive side of baby food makers.<\/li>\r\n<li>Mold- some reviews complain that the water tank can get moldy.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>What Others Are Saying:<\/h4>\r\n<p>Reviews rave about it being easy to use and easy to clean. However, many reviews have complained about mold growing in the water tank. This may be because food particles are getting into the water reservoir. You may want to ensure that you wash out the water reservoir in between uses.<\/p>\r\n<p>Other reviews admire its sturdy design and the large batches of food it can make. It\u2019s gotten particular praise for how smooth it can get foods such as green beans. People love the combination of steaming and blending all in one device.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Verdict:<\/h4>\r\n<p>If you\u2019re looking for a baby food maker that\u2019s incredibly versatile, the BEABA Babycook is an excellent choice. The 4 in 1 steam cooker and blender is worth a little extra money as it gets the job done better than most.<\/p>\r\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Infanso_Baby_Food_Maker_Food_Processor_BF300\"><\/span>Infanso Baby Food Maker Food Processor BF300<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n<h4>Why We Like It:<\/h4>\r\n<p>The auto-clean function makes tidying up a breeze.<\/p>\r\n<p>The Infanso is a sturdy little machine with a weight of 6 pounds and a height of 10 inches. It&#8217;s small and light enough to take with you wherever you go.<\/p>\r\n<p>It&#8217;s got a heating power of 300W with a stirring power of 130W. The stirring cup is made from 100% baby-safe material free from BPA, phthalate, and lead.<\/p>\r\n<p>The Infanso has a large 20 oz. cup capacity, allowing you to cook up to three meals at once. It has an auto-cleaning feature, and the cup and blade are both dishwashers safe. It comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee and a 1-year warranty.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Pros:<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Versatile &#8211; it\u2019s a steam cooker, blender, chopper, defroster, and reheater all in one. It can also make baby food from pureed fruits and vegetables to chunkier meats.<\/li>\r\n<li>Easy to clean- the auto-cleaning feature is enormously helpful to new parents who don\u2019t have a lot of time to spend cleaning.<\/li>\r\n<li>Huge capacity &#8211; you can plan with this baby food maker, making meals for several days at one time.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>Cons:<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Plastic on the blade can come off- some reviews complain that the plastic breaks off in the baby food.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>What Others Are Saying:<\/h4>\r\n<p>Most reviews love the self-cleaning feature and how easy it is to use. However, they do warn that the blade is incredibly sharp, so be careful when you\u2019re cleaning the blade.<\/p>\r\n<p>People also rave about the sleek design. The sterilize option has also been called out as being particularly helpful.<\/p>\r\n<p>The manual has been described as hard to read; perhaps it had been poorly translated into English. However, they do say that once you get the hand of it, it&#8217;s straightforward to use. It&#8217;s also got no problems with mold in the water tank.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Verdict:<\/h4>\r\n<p>If you want a baby food maker that\u2019s more versatile than most but doesn\u2019t break the bank, go with the Infanso. It has all of the versatility of the BEABA Babycook without the issue of the mold.<\/p>\r\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Elechomes_Baby_Food_Maker_Processor\"><\/span>Elechomes Baby Food Maker Processor<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n<h4>Why We Like It:<\/h4>\r\n<p>It&#8217;s tiny!

The controls and design are straightforward.<\/li>\r\n<li>Safe- it comes with a safety feature that won\u2019t let the system turn on if the lid isn\u2019t securely attached.

It&#8217;s perfect for the price.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>Cons:<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Small &#8211; it&#8217;s small size is excellent for not taking up too much counter space. However, it doesn&#8217;t make as much baby food as others on this list.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>What Others Are Saying:<\/h4>\r\n<p>People love the simplicity of this baby food maker. It\u2019s highly reviewed due to how easy it is to use as well as to clean.<\/p>\r\n<p>Users found the instructions easy to follow and the recipe book full of great delicious recipes.

It comes with multiple cups, storage cups, a second blade, and much more.<\/p>\r\n<p>The Magic Bullet Baby Bullet is a smaller blender than your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.juicersplusblenders.com\/magic-bullet-review\/\">standard Magic Bullet<\/a>. It weighs 5.65 pounds and has a height of 12 inches.<\/p>\r\n<p>Like all magic bullets, it&#8217;s very portable, although it comes with many accessories that may take up more room. It&#8217;s got a strong motor power of 200W, equally strong as the regular Magic Bullet.<\/p>\r\n<p>The Baby Bullet is made from BPA and Phthalate-free non-toxic plastic, and it has an 8-cup capacity. There are a few parts, so it&#8217;s easy to wash and rinse. It comes with a 1-year limited warranty.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Pros:<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Affordable- it is not an expensive price for a baby food maker. The Baby Bullet comes with enough accessories that make the cost more than worth it.<\/li>\r\n<li>Quiet- it\u2019s soft enough that you won\u2019t have to worry about waking a newborn when you\u2019re using it.<\/li>\r\n<li>Easy storage- it comes with several storage cups that allow you to make baby food in advance.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>Cons:<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Not versatile- you have to steam the food yourself. It only blends baby food, and it doesn\u2019t have any of the other food processing functions. It also doesn\u2019t work with meat.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>What Others Are Saying:<\/h4>\r\n<p>Reviews love that it comes with multiple jars that allow you to make small and large batches. Customers also frequently praise the high amount of accessories. They also love how easy it is to use, as all you have to do is push it down to activate.<\/p>\r\n<p>However, some reviews complain that it isn&#8217;t durable. Several reviews claim that the rubber on the bottom starts to seep into the food. This isn&#8217;t a costly baby food maker, so you may find it will break down after a few months to a year.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Verdict:<\/h4>\r\n<p>The Baby Bullet is a <strong>cheap and simple baby food maker<\/strong>. If you only need something to make pureed fruits or vegetables, it will suffice. If you want something a little more versatile, you may want to look elsewhere.<\/p>\r\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Utalent_Immersion_Hand_Blender\"><\/span>Utalent Immersion Hand Blender<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n<h4>Why We Like It:<\/h4>\r\n<p>This <a href=\"https:\/\/www.juicersplusblenders.com\/best-immersion-blenders\/\">immersion stick blender<\/a> comes with many parts that let you froth milk, beat eggs, and chop food as well.<\/p>\r\n<p>The Utalent Immersion Hand Blender is 15 inches long and weighs only 1.66 pounds. It\u2019s easy to store and to take with you, although it comes with several other parts as well. It\u2019s powerful for an immersion blender, with a 250W blender power.<\/p>\r\n<p>The Utalent is made from BPA-free plastic, and it&#8217;s dishwasher safe, so it&#8217;s easy to clean. The food chopper has a 500ml capacity, and it comes with an additional 600ml beaker. It comes with a 2-year warranty.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Pros:<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Versatile- you can use the immersion blender to blend food, and the milk frother attachment lets you froth milk.

It&#8217;s got a 4-blade system and eight different speed settings that let you determine how much power you want to use.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>Cons:<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Not specifically for baby food- it\u2019s an immersion blender, so while it can make baby food, that isn\u2019t its sole purpose. This means that it lacks many of the features that baby food makers have.<\/li>\r\n<li>Shakes a lot &#8211; it tends to shake too much when you\u2019re trying to use it. It also tends to overheat if you use it too much.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>What Others Are Saying:<\/h4>\r\n<p>It&#8217;s got almost unanimously positive reviews. They love the sharp blades and adjustable speeds. It&#8217;s particularly useful for making fruit smoothies and whisking eggs.

They found it easy to handle and not too small. They also loved how versatile it was, saying that it was definitely worth the price.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Verdict:<\/h4>\r\n<p>If you\u2019re looking to use an immersion blender to make baby food, then the Utalent is an excellent choice.

While you want a baby food maker that can handle all sorts of fruits and vegetables, it doesn\u2019t hurt to be able to make a few treats.<\/p>\r\n<p>The Sage Spoonfuls Immersion Hand Blender is 2.45 pounds with a length of 13 inches.

It\u2019s also dishwasher safe.<\/li>\r\n<li>Inexpensive- it\u2019s one of the cheapest options out there for making baby food.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>Cons:<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Not versatile &#8211; all you can do is blend with it. It doesn\u2019t cook, or steam, or do anything else that most baby food makers can do.It also doesn\u2019t come with any other accessories.<\/li>\r\n<li>Cheap &#8211; it\u2019s kind of a cheap quality, which makes sense because of the price. It\u2019s not incredibly durable.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>What Others Are Saying:<\/h4>\r\n<p>It&#8217;s not a very highly reviewed product, as it has only 3.9\/5 stars on Amazon. Most reviews complain that it&#8217;s cheap and that bits of the plastic lid starts to come off.<\/p>\r\n<p>They complain that the seal on the food processor doesn&#8217;t keep food in, which means that using it can create a huge mess.<\/p>\r\n<p>However, some people love how quiet it is and how easy it is to clean. They also love that it purees the food to be super smooth and not lumpy. Many reviews compliment how quickly it works.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Verdict:<\/h4>\r\n<p>If you want to save money on a baby food maker, you might be able to get away with the Sage Spoonfuls. However, you\u2019d be better off with the Utalent immersion hand blender if you\u2019re going to go with an immersion blender.<\/p>\r\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"BEABA_Babycook_Plus_4_in_1_Steam_Cooker_and_Blender\"><\/span>BEABA Babycook Plus 4 in 1 Steam Cooker and Blender<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n<h4>Why We Like It:<\/h4>\r\n<p>It\u2019s like the BEABA Babycook times 2! The Babycook Plus comes with two large 4.7-cup bowls that you can use simultaneously to make baby food.<\/p>\r\n<p>The BEABA Babycook Plus is a bit larger than your average baby food maker. It&#8217;s got a weight of 6 pounds and a length of 14.5 inches.<\/p>\r\n<p>It&#8217;s not super portable, but it isn&#8217;t that difficult to store. It has a motor power of 400W and is made from BPA, Lead, and Phthalate-free materials.<\/p>\r\n<p>The Babycook Plus has 2 4.7 cup bowls for making baby food simultaneously. It\u2019s dishwasher safe, so it\u2019s pretty easy to clean.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Pros:<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Versatile &#8211; it can steam cook, blend, reheat, defrost, you name it.<\/li>\r\n<li>Huge &#8211; it makes a ton of baby food. With two separate cups, it can make double the baby food of the original BEABA Babycook.<\/li>\r\n<li>Easy to use &#8211; it has a one-touch open and close. It also automatically shuts off and beeps when it\u2019s done.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>Cons:<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Expensive- it is one of the most costly baby food makers out there.<\/li>\r\n<li>No warranty- you&#8217;ll want to buy it straight through the manufacturer if you&#8217;re going to take advantage of the warranty.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>What Others Are Saying:<\/h4>\r\n<p>Reviews do caution that you should give it time to cool down between steaming. However, they rave about how much time you can save by making multiple meals at once. They love how many different functions it has, and some people even make food for themselves with it as well.<\/p>\r\n<p>Some of the reviews claimed that when it stopped working, the manufacturer didn&#8217;t uphold the warranty because it was purchased through Amazon. And although they love the cute design, a couple of the reviews complained that it leaked.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Verdict:<\/h4>\r\n<p>If you\u2019re willing to spend a little more to make your life easier, go ahead and get the BEABA Babycook Plus. You can prepare meals for days in one easy go, and you can do it all in one simple device.<\/p>\r\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ninja_400-Watt_BlenderFood_Processor\"><\/span>Ninja 400-Watt Blender\/Food Processor<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n<h4>Why We Like It:<\/h4>\r\n<p>It is incredibly powerful, with a 400W motor that can crush even frozen fruit into a smooth puree.<\/p>\r\n<p>The Ninja is 4 pounds with a height of 12.2 inches. It\u2019s very portable, and it\u2019s got an incredibly powerful 400W motor. The 48 oz. pitcher is made from BPA-free plastic, and so is the 16 oz. chopper bowl.<\/p>\r\n<p>All of the removable parts are dishwasher-safe, so it\u2019s super easy to clean. It comes with a 1-year limited warranty.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Pros:<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Powerful &#8211; the Ninja is a blender and food processor that can blast through almost anything. This makes it great for frozen fruit as well as pureeing vegetables for baby food.<\/li>\r\n<li>Not messy &#8211; it comes with an anti-spill splash guard and an easy-flip pour spout. You\u2019d have a hard time making a mess with the Ninja.<\/li>\r\n<li>Storage is easy- it comes with storage lids so you can store the baby food right in the fridge when you\u2019re done making it.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>Cons:<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Not designed for baby food- it\u2019s a blender and food processor that can puree fruits and vegetables. However, it\u2019s not designed solely to make baby food, so it may not be the best.<\/li>\r\n<li>Loud- it may wake the baby up. The 400W motor is super loud.<\/li>\r\n<li>Poor warranty- if you get a faulty product, Ninja charges you an additional fee to send you a new one.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>What Others Are Saying:<\/h4>\r\n<p>Reviews are not a big fan of the warranty, so be careful when buying this product. Most of the negative reviews claim that it broke several months after purchasing and that the company did not do a good job responding.<\/p>\r\n<p>Customers do love how consistent it blends and crushes ice, however. They also love how good it is at making things like nut butters and smoothies. But they don\u2019t like that it only has one speed, and they feel like it isn\u2019t very durable.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Verdict:<\/h4>\r\n<p>The Ninja is great if you\u2019re looking for a blender that can double as a baby food maker. However, you\u2019d probably be better off buying those two things separately rather than trying to do it all with one.<\/p>\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Features_to_Look_for_in_a_Great_Baby_Food_Maker\"><\/span>What Features to Look for in a Great Baby Food Maker?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p><strong>Motor Power. <\/strong>You need a strong enough motor power to blend hard fruits and veggies. At the same time, you don\u2019t want one that\u2019s so loud it\u2019ll wake your baby.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Size &amp; Weight. <\/strong>You want to make sure the blender you buy is small enough to fit in your kitchen. If it\u2019s too big or too heavy, you won\u2019t have room for it.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Portability. <\/strong>If you travel a lot, you&#8217;ll need a portable blender. If you&#8217;ve got a baby food maker you can take with you wherever you go; you&#8217;ll be a lot more flexible. However, these tend to be a bit smaller, so they won&#8217;t make as much food at once.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Container Material &amp; Capacity. <\/strong>You need a blender made from plastic-free of toxins. You&#8217;ll also want one large enough that you can create multiple batches at once to store in the fridge.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Keeping It Clean. <\/strong>No new parent has time for a lengthy cleanup. Find a blender that\u2019s dishwasher safe for a quick and easy clean.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Warranty. <\/strong>If the blender breaks down, you need a good warranty to cover it. Make sure the warranty covers the whole blender and not just the motor.<\/p>\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Benefits_Of_Homemade_Baby_Food\"><\/span>Benefits Of Homemade Baby Food<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><strong>Nutritious. <\/strong>You\u2019ll be making sure your baby gets all the vitamins and minerals they need without the preservatives.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Saves money. <\/strong>You&#8217;ll save money on expensive baby food by buying fresh produce to make it yourself at home. It\u2019s a lot cheaper to buy carrots to puree than it is to buy them already pureed in a jar.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Saves time. <\/strong>You can feed your baby the same foods as everyone else by just giving it a quick puree in the blender. This saves you cooking time and allows you to eat as a family.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>More variety. <\/strong>Your baby won\u2019t be stuck eating the same pureed peas and carrots every single day. By making homemade baby food, you can introduce your baby to a wider variety of foods earlier on.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Make_Homemade_Baby_Food_In_Your_Blender\"><\/span>How To Make Homemade Baby Food In Your Blender<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<h4>Raw<\/h4>\r\n<p>To make raw baby food, you\u2019ll first want to peel the fruit or vegetable. Then add it to the blender, blending it on medium speed until it\u2019s smooth and there are no chunks. Then divide it into 2.5 oz. containers. These will last about three days in the fridge.<\/p>\r\n<h4>Steamed<\/h4>\r\n<p>To make steamed baby food, first, peel the fruit or vegetable. Then slice it and put it in a steaming basket over boiling water. When you can stab it with a fork, take it off and let it cool for ten minutes.\r\nThen blend on medium speed until smooth. Let it completely cool before you cover and place it in the fridge.<\/p>\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion_Which_Baby_Food_Maker_is_Right_for_You\"><\/span>Conclusion: Which Baby Food Maker is Right for You?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p>Everyone wants the best for their children. Choosing the right baby food blender will make your life easier. It will also make sure that your baby is happy and healthy, enjoying delicious smooth foods.<\/p>\r\n<p>If you\u2019ve got the budget to go big, go for the BEABA Babycook Plus. It\u2019s big enough that you can make three days worth of baby food at once. When you\u2019re a new parent, that will save you an invaluable amount of time.<\/p>\r\n<p>If you want to be a little bit more budget-friendly, the Magic Bullet Baby Bullet will make a quality puree. It\u2019s not as versatile as some of the other blenders, but it\u2019ll get the job done just fine.<\/p>\r\n<p>My personal favorite is the Elechomes baby food maker. It\u2019s very evenly priced and has a lot of the same versatility as some of the more expensive brands. If you\u2019re okay with making a new batch of food every day, then the Elechomes will work great for you.<\/p>\r\n<p>Don&#8217;t let procrastination keep you from simplifying your life. Buy a blender for making baby food, and you&#8217;ll save time and money.
