Organix First Organic Apple & Raspberry Cereal

My little Elijah is growing up and although it doesn't seem like five minutes ago that I gave birth to him on the living room sofa, he is at the age where he isn't satisfied with breast milk alone. When I was at Sainsbury's a couple of days ago I decided to pick him up something for a change as he has had baby rice for quite a while now. I came across this apple and raspberry cereal from the Organix range which I thought sounded ad looked very appealing so popped a box in my basket. I must admit I will be glad when he reaches 6 months because these boxes of cereal aren't cheap. This one cost £1.54 which I think is a real rip off. I was giving him fruit for breakfast but ...  Read the complete review

This cereal was my son's favourite first stage weaning cereal by far! At one point he was having it for breakfast and supper! When you follow the instuctions you make it up to a good consistency (unlike the Cow and Gate cereals which end up far too sloppy) although we found that my son liked it a big thicker than recommended. It can be mixed with either baby's milk or water. I did try it with expressed breast milk but my LO was not keen on it (although he did eat it), he preferred it made with hot water. It is ideal as you just measure the powder in a bowl, add the hot water, leave it to cool if necessary and then feed it to baby - no messing ...  Read the complete review

When my gorgeous second daughter reached about 51/2 months she started to pay such a huge interest in what I was eating and she would watch me eat my food with her own little mouth gaping wide. I decided I couldn't put off the weaning any long and she was ready for something other than milk. The Organix Organic Apple and Raspberry Cereal was the first breakfast cereal I bought for her after she had been on boring baby rice for a few days. The organix brand was the natural choice for me as I was familiar with their products and their 'no junk' approach to baby food and toddler snacks. It is incredibly reassuring to look at only a handful ingredient and ...  Read the complete review

When my son was ready for weaning one of the first things I did was to get excited over breakfast cereal after all my beautiful boy was now showing the biggest sign he was growing up - eating! This cereal was the biggest let down for me. It's the only cereal he has refused to eat. I thought being organic I'd try and give him the best start but he cries and spits it out everytime. But I don't like it either. I find it much more difficult to stir it to a nice consistency than other breakfast cereals. I seem to have more powder lumps in it. I've tried warm milk, cold milk, water, adding more and less liquid nothing works. The other disadvantage for me ...  Read the complete review
