Bambino’s features organic ingredients with widely regarded health benefits that are exclusive to baby food such as wild Alaska salmon and halibut, and olive oil.
Working in partnership with allergists, Bambino’s has created the only commercially-available cookie proven to desensitize high-risk infants to peanut allergies.
Recommended by allergists and pediatricians, Bambino’s is formulated to meet new guidelines for nutrient-rich, low-sugar, balanced meals for babies as early as four months of age.
Certified organic vegetables are grown specifically for Bambino’s by Mat-Su Valley farmers.
Maroudas derived inspiration for Bambino’s while working with hospital chefs to improve the nutritional quality and palatability of foods provided to oncology patients.
Bambino’s has developed a secondary market among those seeking nutritious, flavorful, easy-to-digest foods as a result of gastric and dental surgeries, medical treatment, and fitness regimens
