Orange juice for babies is a gently processed, diluted product designed to be appropriate for infants being introduced to new flavours. It is typically pasteurised to ensure safety and may be diluted to reduce acidity compared with standard orange juice.
In Australia, baby food products are subject to strict food standards under the FSANZ Food Standards Code, which limits additives and requires clear labelling of ingredients. These juices usually contain no added sugar, preservatives, or artificial flavours.
Current Australian dietary guidelines suggest whole fruits are preferable to juice for young children, but small amounts of juice are sometimes used during weaning to introduce citrus flavours or mixed into purées. These products are sold in small single-serve portions in the baby food aisle.
