The First Foods Set + BLW Food Cutters Bundle makes starting solids ezpz! Serve purees or baby-led strips and cubes in the Tiny Bowl, a silicone bowl perfectly sized for the smallest of highchair trays. The two BLW Food Cutters help you create food strips (6m+) to promote the palmer grasp, and food cubes (9m+) to encourage the pincer grasp. The Baby-Led Tiny Spoon supports independent dipping and scooping, while the Baby-Led Tiny Cup helps with the transition from bottle to cup. 

Expert Innovation

Join our founder (Lindsey) and our expert feeding specialist (Dawn) as they talk about the intentional design behind the Baby-Led Weaning Food Cutters.

Baby-led weaning (BLW) is a feeding approach where babies self-feed and eat the same foods as the rest of the family.

This method involves baby / toddler picking up soft strips and cubes of food or using a baby-ledTM spoon (instead of being spoon-fed purees by an adult).

The Baby-Led Weaning Food Cutters are the first tool of their kind, and they eliminate the guesswork of BLW food prep.

More About BLW

Baby-Led Weaning

The Palmar Grasp

The palmar grasp is a baby's first feeding grasp, typically emerging around 6 months of age. This grasp occurs when a baby stabilizes an object against their palm with their fingers curled around it.

A baby will use the palmar grasp to hold a spoon or one piece of food at a time in the palm of their hand and slowly (but independently) place it into their mouth.

Food strips cut to the length of an adult pinky finger are ideal for baby to grasp, place on their gumline, and learn how to chew and swallow.

Baby-Led Weaning

The Pincer Grasp

The Pincer Grasp is when your baby uses the tips of their thumb and index finger to pick up food or an object. This is a more mature feeding movement that appears around 9 months of age.

During this stage, your baby / toddler will use this grasp to quickly pick up multiple small pieces of food at a time.

Soft foods cut into bite-sized cubes are ideal for baby to grasp, place on their gumline, and learn how to chew and swallow.

Baby-Led Weaning Q+A

What is baby-led weaning?

Baby-led weaning (BLW) is a feeding approach where babies are introduced to solid foods by eating the same foods as the rest of the family. Once baby is ready to start solids, babies feed themselves with a baby-ledTM spoon or by picking up soft strips of food with their hands (instead of being spoon-fed purées by an adult).

How do the Baby-Led Weaning Food Cutters help?

The BLW Food Cutters take the guesswork out of food prep by ensuring that baby’s meals are prepared for their age and developmental stage. The finger-length strips support the palmar grasp (6m+), and the serrated cubes support the pincer grasp (9m+).
