Frequently Asked Questions
General
Our bites do contain some common allergens. Current research shows that introducing allergens in small amounts once babies begin self-feeding—and continuing to include them in their diet as long as there’s no reaction—can actually help prevent food allergies. Beanie Bites make it easy to keep those foods in the rotation!

Beanie Bites are made for little ones learning to self-feed all the way up to confident eaters! Each recipe is designed to grow with your child. For example, our Pumpkin Pancake Sticks are just the right size for beginner hands and can later be cut into smaller pieces for practicing the pincer grasp.
Before beginning self-feeding with your little bean, make sure you consider not only age but the criteria set forth by the AAP for certain milestones. You can find more info here!

There is really no age limit on Beanie Bites - we've been known to have them ourselves as parents from time to time in a pinch 😉
We’re proud to create our bites at the Local First Arizona Community Kitchen in downtown Mesa, AZ—a licensed commercial kitchen that’s regularly inspected. Every person hand-making bites is ServSafe Food Manager certified.

Your bites will arrive frozen and transported in coolers. Please be home to receive them—or leave a cooler with ice packs outside to keep them frozen. Store bites in your freezer until you’re ready to use them. Each bite is individually wrapped so you can grab one (or a few) without opening the whole box.
They’ll stay fresh for up to 3 months when kept frozen.
We know your time is valuable—you’re busy raising the next generation! Frozen bites give you nutritious, ready-to-heat options without the stress of keeping up with fridge expiration dates. You can stock up and always have something wholesome on hand without worrying about food waste. Freezing also locks in the freshness of produce and helps maintain nutritional value.
We currently have a local delivery option for orders delivered within 15 miles of our kitchen located at 659 E Main St in Mesa, AZ! Orders placed by 5 pm on Mondays will be delivered the following Sunday.
Orders to addresses within our 15 mile delivery radius will be charged a flat $5 delivery fee.
