Baby cereal is the first step to understanding your baby’s palate
Your baby's introduction to the new world of solid food can start with a spoon and a bowl of GERBER baby cereal! Our cereals can help your little one discover and experience excitingly delicious tastes and new textures, while giving them all the nutritional benefits they’ll need as they grow. They won’t like everything, and that’s okay. But when you find the flavours they want, you and your little one will both be happy.
Discover the triple goodness of GERBER baby cereals!
Our baby cereals are an excellent source of iron to ensure your little one meets their daily iron needs.
IRON FOR COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT SUPPORT
Iron is a vital nutrient that supports your baby's normal cognitive development. But at about six months, your baby will have used up most of the iron they received in utero. That’s why, at about this time, iron-rich complementary foods should be introduced. Iron-fortified baby cereal is recommended by the Canadian Pediatric Society as an ideal first food for babies1.
WITH PROBIOTICS FOR IMMUNITY SUPPORT
We make the only Baby Cereals in Canada with added probiotic B. lactis*, which contributes to your baby’s healthy gut flora and helps support your baby’s immune function**.
Building baby's immunity is important to their healthy growth. That is why when your baby starts solid foods, it's important to provide them with foods with probiotics.
WITH ZINC FOR IMMUNITY SUPPORT
Our cereals contain Essential Nutrients like Iron, Zinc, Calcium, Vitamin B12, Riboflavin, Thiamine and Niacin to help support your baby’s growth and development***. Iron and Zinc also contribute to the normal function of your baby’s immune system.
Plus, our cereals are made with NO artificial colours or flavours and NO ADDED preservatives or salt¥.
Try GERBER Organic Baby Cereal too!
Our organic non-GMO§ cereals for your growing baby help you feel confident about what your little one is eating. Our recipes are lovingly made with carefully selected organic ingredients, including real fruit and whole grains that meet GERBER’s high-quality standards.
