BABY FOOD
Making your own babies food is wonderful. The Juice Life makes baby food suitable for babies 6 months and over. We recommend that you make sure your slow juicer has been thoroughly cleaned before pureeing.
Tips for freezing baby food: Food can be frozen in a clean ice cube tray in portions, covered, and once frozen, transferred to a resealable bag. Portions can then be thawed as you need it.
