No. Happy Family products never contain any synthetic colors or flavors.
Yes! All of our products are USDA certified organic.
We source all of our fruits, vegetables, and grains from trusted organic farms, many of which are located right here in the United States! However, depending on growing seasons, we’ll source ingredients from other countries. We hold each and every one of our partners to the same strict standards and carefully source each one of our ingredients.
To find out exactly where our ingredients come from, check out HappyFarms.com
All (except for three) of our products are made in the US: Happy Baby Rice Cakes are made in the Netherlands, our Happy Baby Teethers are made in Thailand and our Happy Baby Jars are made in Poland. These products go through the same strict auditing as those made in our US facilities.
As parents ourselves, we take the safety of our products very seriously. Our Quality Assurance team analyzes every batch of every one of our products. Each product is tested to make sure that they meet our strict standards and are safe for every baby, toddler, and adult to consume. Click here to learn more about our quality and safety standards.
Because we’re parents too, we live the reality and understand the needs of today’s families. We are also driven by the long-term health and safety of children. Happy Family products are created in collaboration by our research and development (R&D) team, and with partners like registered dietitians, nutritionists, lactation consultants, and medical professionals.
All Happy Family packaging is made without the use of BPA or phthalates.
Beyond our mission to change the trajectory of children’s health through nutrition, we are proud to be a socially responsible company. We have proudly been a certified B Corp since 2011, which means we meet rigorous third-party standards that measure our social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency.
In 2017, not only did we become a Public Benefit Corporation—which means we legally updated our charter to reflect our commitment to a better world—we won the Best for the World: Changemakers Award, which is given to businesses that best exceed the high social and environmental standards set for B Corporations. We recognize the importance of leaving the world a better place for all children, and we give back to both people and the planet. To learn more about our efforts, check out our 2019 Mission Report.

Our foil pouches are made from multi-layer films produced without the use of BPA or phthalates. The outer layers are polyethylene blends designed for durability and printability. The middle layer is a bonded aluminum layer for moisture and vapor impermeability. The inner layer (the only layer that touches the food) is bonded virgin food-grade polyethylene. The food cannot contact the middle aluminum layer.
Our Clearly Crafted pouches are made from an outer polyethylene blend coated with aluminum oxide, a middle plastic layer, and an inner layer of food-grade polyethylene. The inner layer is the only portion that has direct food contact and is made with a commonly-used, food-safe plastic.
Unfortunately, our pouches are not recyclable at this time. Although our pouches cannot be recycled, they do offer numerous environmental benefits over other packaging alternatives. From raw materials to transportation to your local store, pouches with flexible packaging like ours require less energy and fewer raw materials to produce, and generates fewer greenhouse gas emissions than the alternatives.
Despite these benefits, we are still concerned about the recyclability of our pouches and are continually working to improve. We are active members of the Sustainable Packaging Coalition’s flexible film recovery working group and OSC2’s packaging collaborative to identify a solution to make pouch recyclability possible.
If a tear or puncture is found in the pouch, please discard and do not consume as we cannot guarantee the quality of the product. If you have experienced this, we would be happy to replace it for you. Please contact our Consumer Care team at 1-855-64-HAPPY (1-855-644-2779).
No, the tub is not recyclable in the current recycling streams.
The meal bowls are made from #5 Polypropylene, and the outer sleeves are made from paperboard made with 65% post-consumer recycled content. The bowls are recyclable in most U.S. cities. Please rinse and dry the container before recycling.
The Clearly Crafted Jars are 100% recyclable.
Our facility requires the plastic bag to transport the teethers from the first stage of packaging to the final step, where the bag is placed in a box. Unfortunately, right now there is no way to eliminate the plastic bag. We are continuing to explore options, as we are committed to removing all unnecessary packaging from our products.
This is completely up to you and your little one’s development. Pouches can be a part of a healthy feeding routine that also includes spoon feeding and self-feeding. If your little one is a bit younger and does not eat the whole pouch, we suggest squeezing some of the puree into a bowl and feeding with a spoon. If your little one eats directly from the spout (and doesn’t finish the puree), it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
Absolutely! This works best if your little is ready to self-feed and is a great option when on the go, especially if your little one can eat an entire pouch in one sitting. Additionally, we understand that variety in feeding options is very important to your little one’s development and you may also spoon feed or squeeze some puree into a bowl and let your little one have at it.
The majority of our Happy Baby and Happy Tot pouches are free from wheat, gluten, dairy, soy, and nuts. The exceptions is our Happy Tot Super Morning product line, which contains dairy. To see allergen details for all of our products, click here.
We always suggest speaking to your pediatrician if you are unsure which stage your little one is ready for. Generally, we consider the following age ranges appropriate for these stages:
Stage 4 pouches are intended for little ones 2 years and up. If you have any concerns regarding if this product is appropriate for your little one, we suggest consulting your pediatrician.
The only difference is the packaging appearance. Both pouches keep the puree safe and tasting great as always.
There is natural variation in color among fruits and vegetables. Each individual fruit and vegetable brings their own characteristics and can sometimes vary slightly in color and taste, just like the variation you see amongst organic produce in the supermarket!
This is absolutely safe to consume and is not a food safety issue. After the pouch is filled with puree, it is exposed to heat for pasteurization for product safety. At that point, the puree in the spout is exposed to more heat, which can result in a color change and/or a thickening of the product.
If you aren’t satisfied, please contact our Consumer Care team at 1-855-64-HAPPY (1-855-644-2779). If you happen to have a photo and product specifics, that would be super helpful!
Some of our pouches include gluten-free organic oats, amaranth flour, or quinoa, and have a thicker consistency because of their grains.
Here at Happy Family, we do not use any stabilizers or binders. Because of this, occasionally during the cold weather months, our pouches can freeze while they are distributed to your local store. When ingredients freeze—especially vegetables!—the water can separate out from the solid food, causing it to become chunky and watery. While these are completely safe to consume, they don’t always look very appetizing!
If you are experiencing this, please contact our Consumer Care team at 1-855-64-HAPPY (1-855-644-2779).
If your little one does not eat directly from the pouch spout, you can save the pouch in the fridge for 2 days. If they do eat directly from the pouch, it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. If you’d like to save it for longer, we suggest squeezing the puree into an ice cube tray and freezing it in individual servings.
Our Happy Family fruit and veggie pouches can be stored at room temp until they have been opened. Our Happy Tot Whole Milk Yogurt pouches should always be refrigerated.
On the rare occasion that a pouch is defective, there are a couple of ways to know. If you notice any damage to the packaging, or packaging that seems overly inflated, please do not use the pouch. Also, if you happen to notice an “off” smell when opening the pouch, this could also be a sign that the pouch is defective or damaged. Please do not consume the pouch, as we cannot guarantee the quality.
If you notice any signs, please contact our Consumer Care team at 1-855-64-HAPPY (1-855-644-2779) so that we can get a bit more detail and share it with our team to further investigate. We typically look to collect the “best by” date and lot code, which can be found underneath the barcode on the back of our pouches.
Our pouches are preserved by heat, packaging, and pH control. The purees are cooked to a target temperature to kill microbiological growth, then ingredients like lemon juice concentrate and/or ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) are added to lower the pH of the purees to a food safe range. The pouches also have an inner aluminum lining to protect the food inside. As a note, the food only contacts the inner food-grade polypropylene layer, and not the aluminum inner lining.
Not only do we provide nutrients modeled after breast milk for baby, we are the only US organic formula brand to provide staged formulas – breast milk changes over time to meet baby’s developing nutritional needs, so should our formula.
Happy Baby® Organics Stage 1 Infant Formula is formulated to meet the nutritional needs of an infant from birth to 12 months.
Happy Baby® Organics Stage 2 Infant Formula is formulated to offer tailored nutrition for little ones 6 to 12 months old. This Stage 2 formula delivers tailored levels of key nutrients, including calcium, iron, phosphorus, iodine and selenium for baby 6+ months.
Happy Baby® Organics Stage 1 Infant Formula with A2 milk provides complete nutrition from 0 - 12 months and is made with A2 milk, sourced from selectively bred cows that only produce A2 beta casein.
To ensure even more peace of mind, our new formula is made in our own FDA-registered European facility, with rigorous quality & food safety tests from start to finish so you can feel confident in every bottle you make. Moreover, producing at our own facility means that we have complete control over capacity and supply to ensure our formula is available when your little one needs it.
Distilled water for babies is safe to use with their formula on occasion, or alternating with tap water. Distilled water has no electrolytes or minerals that baby may need. Talk to your baby's pediatrician before using distilled water in their baby formula if that's something you're interested in.
If possible, use clean, fluoridated tap water to make your baby's formula. In the United States, the Environmental Protection Agency regulates tap water and sets legal limits for certain contaminants. Tap water is almost always the safest option for your baby, as long as there's no known local contamination. If you're worried about the safety of your tap water, check with your local water district. You can also ask your local water district to test your water.
Always refer to the package label for the most up-to-date preparation instructions. Freshly prepared formula is best. Only, if necessary, refrigerate freshly prepared, unused formula within two hours between 35-40°F (2-4°C) and use within 24 hours. Do not freeze. Warm infant formula to room temperature and shake well before feeding. Any left over after feeding should be discarded and not stored.
Powdered formula can be used for one month after it has been opened. We don’t recommend using the formula after 30 days of opening because the nutrients start to degrade and if any water or moisture comes into contact with the formula bacteria can begin to grow.
You can prepare about 20 (8-fl oz) bottles with our 22.9 oz container.
Yes! Our Happy Baby Clearly Crafted Cereals are allergy-friendly and do not contain wheat, gluten, dairy, soy, or nuts. To see allergen details for all of our products, click here.
Yes! All of our Clearly Crafted Jars are free from wheat, gluten, dairy, soy, and nuts, so they can be suitable for those with common allergies and sensitivities. To see allergen details for all of our products, click here.
Yes! The jars can be microwaved. Since the lid is metal, make sure you remove it prior to microwaving. Additionally, make sure to stir and test the temperature prior to feeding to your little one, as the contents may be hot.
If you have not spoon-fed directly from the jar, you may save the remaining puree in the refrigerator for up to 3 days*. If you have spoon-fed directly from the jar, then you should not save the remaining puree because this could introduce bacteria from your little one’s mouth into the jar, which could cause bacterial contamination and growth. If you do not think your little one will consume an entire jar in one feeding, we suggest pouring a smaller quantity of the puree into a separate bowl.
*The Sweet Potato flavor must be used within 2 days.
Our jars are preserved by heat and pH control. The purees are cooked to a target temperature to kill microbiological growth, then ingredients like lemon juice concentrate and/or ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) are added to lower the pH of the purees to a food safe range.
The mixed tocopherols in our Happy Baby Creamies are derived from vegetable oils (soybean, canola, sunflower, and corn). The allergen protein that can cause allergic reactions is not present.
Our Happy Baby Yogis are made with dairy. However, they are free of wheat, gluten, soy, and nuts. To see allergen details for all of our products, click here. If you are looking for an allergy-friendly option, check out our Happy Baby Creamies.
Our Happy Baby Yogis contain sugar because it is a functional ingredient in the recipe. Yogurt makes up the bulk of this recipe, we add just a touch of sugar for taste and to help create an easily meltable snack.
Probiotics are “friendly bacteria” that, when consumed regularly and in the right amounts, provide benefits for digestive health.
Yes! Our Creamies do not contain any wheat, gluten, dairy, soy, or peanuts, which make them a great option for little ones with common food allergies and sensitivities. To see allergen details for all of our products, click here.
Yes! Our Teethers do not contain any wheat, gluten, dairy, soy, or nuts, making them a great option for little ones with common food allergies and sensitivities. To see allergen details for all of our products, click here.
We recently reformulated these specific pouches and switched from a whey protein to a plant-based protein. This way all little ones, even those with dairy sensitivities, can enjoy extra protein. The 3 grams of protein now comes from organic pea protein!
The mixed tocopherols in our Happy Baby Creamies are derived from vegetable oils (soybean, canola, sunflower, and corn). The allergen protein that can cause allergic reactions is not present.
Yes! Our Fiber & Protein bars do not contain any wheat, gluten, dairy, soy, or nuts, making them a great option for little ones with common food allergies and sensitivities. To see allergen details for all of our products, click here.
Organic rosemary extract is used to prevent oxidation and keep the bars fresh! When the oils in the grains oxidize, it can lead to rancidity. You should be able to easily detect the rancid smell upon opening the package. They are generally safe to eat, but they are not up to our standards. If you aren’t satisfied, please contact our Consumer Care team at 1-855-64-HAPPY (1-855-644-2779).
Our Happy Tot Fiber & Protein bars are formulated for 24 months and up. However, the appropriate age range varies based on each individual child. Your toddler may be ready for these bars when she/he stands with support, feeds self with fingers, bites through a variety of textures and food, and has developed back teeth for chewing. If you’re still unsure, we suggest checking with your healthcare provider or pediatrician.
Our Happy Tot Super Smart Multi-Grain Alphabet Snacks are recommended for children over the age of 1. While it is true that babies under the age of 1 should not consume honey, this product does not contain any of the bacteria of concern in pure honey (our Quality Team tests to ensure that!). The reason our Happy Tot Super Smart Snacks are formulated for children over the age of 1 is because of their shape and texture.
Our Happy Tot Super Morning bowl does contain coconut oil, however, the coconut allergen protein is not present in the product. Please see our allergen chart here for more details.
Apples and blueberries naturally have more water than bananas, making the consistency slightly different between the two different flavors. This can also vary due to the different raw fruits. Just like how one organic apple is different than the next, each batch of our fruits differ slightly!
These are groats, the hulled kernels of the oat grain. If you see these, know that they are normal and part of our recipe.
You may heat the bowls before serving them, but you do not have to. Our Happy Tot Super Morning bowls can be enjoyed at room temperature. If you do heat the bowl, make sure to stir and test the temperature prior to feeding to your little one, as the contents may be hot.

The Clearly Crafted Jars are 100% recyclable.
Our facility requires the plastic bag to transport the teethers from the first stage of packaging to the final step, where the bag is placed in a box. Unfortunately, right now there is no way to eliminate the plastic bag. We are continuing to explore options, as we are committed to removing all unnecessary packaging from our products.

On the rare occasion that a pouch is defective, there are a couple of ways to know. If you notice any damage to the packaging, or packaging that seems overly inflated, please do not use the pouch. Also, if you happen to notice an “off” smell when opening the pouch, this could also be a sign that the pouch is defective or damaged. Please do not consume the pouch, as we cannot guarantee the quality.
If you notice any signs, please contact our Consumer Care team at 1-855-64-HAPPY (1-855-644-2779) so that we can get a bit more detail and share it with our team to further investigate. We typically look to collect the “best by” date and lot code, which can be found underneath the barcode on the back of our pouches.
Our pouches are preserved by heat, packaging, and pH control. The purees are cooked to a target temperature to kill microbiological growth, then ingredients like lemon juice concentrate and/or ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) are added to lower the pH of the purees to a food safe range. The pouches also have an inner aluminum lining to protect the food inside. As a note, the food only contacts the inner food-grade polypropylene layer, and not the aluminum inner lining.
To ensure even more peace of mind, our new formula is made in our own FDA-registered European facility, with rigorous quality & food safety tests from start to finish so you can feel confident in every bottle you make. Moreover, producing at our own facility means that we have complete control over capacity and supply to ensure our formula is available when your little one needs it.
Distilled water for babies is safe to use with their formula on occasion, or alternating with tap water. Distilled water has no electrolytes or minerals that baby may need. Talk to your baby's pediatrician before using distilled water in their baby formula if that's something you're interested in.
If possible, use clean, fluoridated tap water to make your baby's formula. In the United States, the Environmental Protection Agency regulates tap water and sets legal limits for certain contaminants. Tap water is almost always the safest option for your baby, as long as there's no known local contamination. If you're worried about the safety of your tap water, check with your local water district. You can also ask your local water district to test your water.
Always refer to the package label for the most up-to-date preparation instructions. Freshly prepared formula is best. Only, if necessary, refrigerate freshly prepared, unused formula within two hours between 35-40°F (2-4°C) and use within 24 hours. Do not freeze. Warm infant formula to room temperature and shake well before feeding. Any left over after feeding should be discarded and not stored.
Powdered formula can be used for one month after it has been opened. We don’t recommend using the formula after 30 days of opening because the nutrients start to degrade and if any water or moisture comes into contact with the formula bacteria can begin to grow.
You can prepare about 20 (8-fl oz) bottles with our 22.9 oz container.

If you have not spoon-fed directly from the jar, you may save the remaining puree in the refrigerator for up to 3 days*. If you have spoon-fed directly from the jar, then you should not save the remaining puree because this could introduce bacteria from your little one’s mouth into the jar, which could cause bacterial contamination and growth. If you do not think your little one will consume an entire jar in one feeding, we suggest pouring a smaller quantity of the puree into a separate bowl.
*The Sweet Potato flavor must be used within 2 days.

Organic rosemary extract is used to prevent oxidation and keep the bars fresh! When the oils in the grains oxidize, it can lead to rancidity. You should be able to easily detect the rancid smell upon opening the package. They are generally safe to eat, but they are not up to our standards. If you aren’t satisfied, please contact our Consumer Care team at 1-855-64-HAPPY (1-855-644-2779).
Our Happy Tot Fiber & Protein bars are formulated for 24 months and up. However, the appropriate age range varies based on each individual child. Your toddler may be ready for these bars when she/he stands with support, feeds self with fingers, bites through a variety of textures and food, and has developed back teeth for chewing. If you’re still unsure, we suggest checking with your healthcare provider or pediatrician.
Our Happy Tot Super Smart Multi-Grain Alphabet Snacks are recommended for children over the age of 1. While it is true that babies under the age of 1 should not consume honey, this product does not contain any of the bacteria of concern in pure honey (our Quality Team tests to ensure that!). The reason our Happy Tot Super Smart Snacks are formulated for children over the age of 1 is because of their shape and texture.
Our Happy Tot Super Morning bowl does contain coconut oil, however, the coconut allergen protein is not present in the product. Please see our allergen chart here for more details.
Apples and blueberries naturally have more water than bananas, making the consistency slightly different between the two different flavors. This can also vary due to the different raw fruits. Just like how one organic apple is different than the next, each batch of our fruits differ slightly!
These are groats, the hulled kernels of the oat grain. If you see these, know that they are normal and part of our recipe.
You may heat the bowls before serving them, but you do not have to. Our Happy Tot Super Morning bowls can be enjoyed at room temperature. If you do heat the bowl, make sure to stir and test the temperature prior to feeding to your little one, as the contents may be hot.
