How it works

The Olababy 1/2 cup freezer tray is made of flexible silicone that releases one frozen serving at a time, and each well holds 4 oz (120 ml). The lid sits flat so filled trays stack, and it blocks freezer odors while portions are stored.

Why parents choose it

  • 1/2-cup wells sized for a full meal rather than a first taste
  • Each portion holds 4 oz (120 ml) of puree, broth or breastmilk
  • Pop out one frozen serving and return the rest to the freezer
  • Flat lid lets filled trays stack on a freezer shelf

Who it is for

Good fit for
  • Batch prepping purees or expressed milk in half cup portions. The tray has six half cup wells and a lid.
  • A parent cooking once and freezing for the week.
  • Thawing one portion at a time rather than a whole container.
Not right for
  • First taste portions, which are far smaller than half a cup. The food feeder set includes a smaller tray.
  • Oven use. The stated care is dishwasher, and no oven or stovetop use is claimed.
  • A family feeding pouches only.

Half-cup portions are the right unit for batch-cooking baby food, freeze once, thaw exactly what you need, waste less.

Why Olababy

Every feeding product is one material, food-grade silicone, soft enough for gums that are still teething and inert enough to go through a dishwasher for years. The panel above names what is in it and what is kept out of it.

Olababy has designed in Portland, Oregon since 2015, with parents testing the things their own children eat from.

More about this one

Can I freeze breast milk in this freezer tray?

Yes. The Olababy 1/2 cup freezer tray is made to freeze breastmilk as well as purees and broth, in portions of 4 oz (120 ml) per well. The lid blocks freezer odors, and the flexible silicone releases one frozen portion at a time, so a single serving can come out while the rest of the tray goes back in the freezer.

How big is each portion in the 1/2 cup freezer tray?

Each well in the Olababy 1/2 cup freezer tray holds 1/2 cup, which is 4 oz (120 ml). That is a meal-size portion rather than a small first-taste cube, so one well thaws into one serving of puree or broth. The flexible silicone releases a single portion at a time.

What is included

1 silicone freezer tray with lid.

How to clean it

Dishwasher safe (top rack).

Does baby led weaning help a baby learn when they are full?

Laura Lucas, a senior clinical dietitian at Texas Children's Hospital, says one of the main benefits of baby led weaning is that it helps babies learn to recognise their own satiety levels, and that with proper handling and supervision it is safe for most babies who are developmentally ready.

What if my baby is unsure about a new texture?

Amy Klein, an occupational therapist at Cincinnati Children's, writes that for a baby who is not sure about a new taste or texture, self feeding gives them control to manipulate it in their mouth and swallow it or not, and that it also aids hand eye coordination.
