Once Upon a Farm, the leading childhood nutrition brand, announced its exciting expansion into the baby and toddler pantry snack category. Bringing their commitment to high-quality, nutritious, and delicious food to an expanded audience, Once Upon a Farm will add three new snack lines, each with three distinct recipes to its portfolio of organic, non-GMO project verified and no-added-sugar products beginning March 2024: Fruit & Veggie Puffs, Coconut Melts, and Tractor Wheels™ Toddler Soft-Baked Bars.
“Having started with refrigerated, cold-pressed pouches seven years ago, consumer feedback was overwhelming in asking to bring our high standards, clean nutrition, and fresh taste to a shelf-stable snack,” says Cassandra Curtis, Founder and CIO at Once Upon a Farm. “We’re thrilled to offer even more ways for families to nourish their little ones with our new line of pantry snacks. We believe all food for babies and toddlers should be packed with wholesome real ingredients, taste great, and be convenient for busy parents. Our new snacks deliver on all three fronts, promoting self-feeding and important developmental milestones.”
Once Upon a Farm’s Organic Baby & Toddler Pantry Snacks – Fruit & Veggie Puffs, Coconut Melts, and Tractor Wheels™ Toddler Soft-Baked Bars – offer the same high-quality brand standards seen in their current fresh and frozen portfolio of products. The new assortment of pantry snacks will bring Once Upon a Farm quality and nutrition to every shelf, ensuring every bite helps set little ones up on a path to healthy eating with key features including simple and clean ingredient lists with no added sugar, no artificial flavors, and no juice concentrates.
