You make your own baby food. That means you prefer to avoid artificial additives and ingredients, choosing instead to only offer your little one foods that you know are healthy… and safe.
That also means you probably like to avoid synthetic food coloring like the plague!
That being said, there are times when you may need to use a little food coloring – chiefly, when you’re preparing baby’s first birthday cake!
But did you know there are plenty of natural alternatives to synthetic food dyes and that you can create beautiful frosting (or pretty pink rice, if you wish!) without once reaching for a bottle of chemical-laden food dye!
We’ve just added a brand new page to our site with lots of ideas for preparing homemade food coloring with only natural – often nutritious – ingredients.
