Baby Kamea’s Baby Freeze Pops

by Kristen in freezing raw vegan food, sun warrior rice protein

With Kamea still teething, I decided to make her some raw vegan baby freeze pops, but I needed good popsicle molds to accomplish this. We had tried other “freeze” type options to soothe her gums but she wasn’t interested (teether toys, cheese cloth with organic frozen fruit inside, etc).

Hello, Amazon to the rescue. I found these fantastic gems and they’re perfect! They hold the ideal amount for her in each one, they’re easy to use and easy for her to hold, and they’re BPA-free. Love them!

Making freeze pops was also an opportunity to get a little extra protein and fat in her diet by making them with raw nut milk and a little protein powder. The freeze pops below are made from organic raw almond milk, organic blueberries, and Sun Warrior chocolate protein powder. It was actually my protein shake and I made a bit extra so I could make her freeze pops with it. How easy is that?!

I see lots of baby freeze pops in our future.

    Thank you :) Welcome!

    These look like a fun treat but maybe you should begin to add a bit more nutrients into her diet other than breast milk.  Iron?Protein? other than breast milk I am curious where she is getting these vital nutrients since you have omitted dairy, eggs, fish, meat, wheat, etc.  Is she just eating fruits, vegetables and protein powder?

    Thanks for chiming in with your advice, but you don’t need to be concerned. My baby is thriving.
    It depends on the day, but her diet consists of fruits, veg, nuts, seeds, legumes, oats, grains, etc. She gets plenty of iron, calcium, protein, fat, zinc, etc.
    There are some great books on the topic. Perhaps you should read one. ;)
    I have the support of both her MD and NMD.

    I am buying these! Thank you so much for the recommendation! What type of protein powder do you use for the baby? Ella is 4 1/2 months and I will be starting her on solids soon. Would plain help protein or brown rice protein suffice? What’s the safest?

    I’ve been using either hemp or a sprouted brown rice.

    I love this idea! Little E is teething like crazy right now and can’t stop sucking on watermelon and oranges! I think I need to get my hands on these freezer pop molds for her! Thanks, Kristen.
