Baby Food: Fruit & Yogurt Blends

Fruit and yoghurt blends combine the sweetness of puréed fruit with the creamy tang of yoghurt, creating a smooth, dessert-like baby food. These are popular with babies who enjoy the slightly richer texture and flavour compared to plain fruit purées.

The yoghurt component introduces babies to fermented dairy in a gentle way, while the mixed fruit provides natural sweetness. These blends are typically strained to a completely smooth consistency suitable for younger babies.

Fruit and yoghurt baby food pouches and tubs are a common sight in the baby food aisle of Australian supermarkets, offered by most major baby food brands. They’re often used as a snack or dessert after a savoury meal.

How it's made

A selection of fruits is washed, peeled where necessary, cooked, and puréed into a smooth blend. This fruit purée is then mixed with yoghurt and passed through a strainer to ensure a completely smooth, lump-free texture. The blend is heat-treated to make it shelf-stable and sealed in sterile pouches, tubs, or jars.
