Thank you for letting us try these jars. We generally try to keep to homemade food, and B has the same food as us, just chopped up a bit. She is 8 months old.
1.What were your first thoughts of the jars when you saw them?
These are good sized jars and appealing to look at with the bright colours and countryside picture in the background, with the ingredients clearly displayed. I like the fact that it is obvious what age the food is aimed at.
2. When you tried the jars, what did you think of them? Please tell us your thoughts on the smell, texture, look and taste; especially if you tasted some yourself!
On the whole, I was very pleasantly surprised with the taste of these jars. I always taste B's food before she has it. Afterall, if I wouldn't eat it, why should she? The taste is much better than other brands we have tried on the whole.
creamy porridge - this was the one jar we didn't get on with. Although it looks appealing, it was very bland and watery. This may be better for less adventurous babies. We usually buy flavoured packet porridge which you make up and we definately won't be switching to the hipp jar.
breakfast layer (strawberry and yogurt) - although the top layer looks a bit strange (lumpy and slightly separated) it tastes very nice, especially when you get down to the fruity layer. It smells very fruity too.
Fruit layer (mango and banana) - again the yogurt bit looks a bit strange and lumpy but tastes ok. The mango layer is a strong flavour but very nice.
cocoa and banana dessert - smells wonderful, looks appealing and tastes just as good!
vegetable lasagne - nice chunks of pasta. This looks similar to other tomato based dishes. The taste of this was a little disappointing compared to the other jars, as it tastes a bit watery. That being said, it still taste nice overall.
Vegetable with noodles and chicken - nice bits of noodle. I couldn't really taste the chicken (but then there is only 8%) but a nice sauce.
spaghetti with tomato and mozzarella - very nice rich tomato flavour and appealing to look at.
3. Which flavours did your baby enjoy the most? Please upload a picture of your child eating one of the HiPP Organic meals with your answer. (To upload a pic, click the little camera icon at the top right of the 'Add your reply' box)




B enjoyed all of the flavours except the porridge. The favourites were the the fruit layers and the tomato and mozzarella - I couldn't get it on the spoon fast enough!
4. Having now tried these jars, would you recommend HiPP Organic Jars to a friend?
I have been very pleasantly surprised with these jars and I will definitely be buying these again in the future and will be recommending them to my friends with weaning babies. I now keep one of these in the changing bag at all times for emergencies.
Thank you again for letting us try these out we have thorough;y enjoyed it!
