The Babycook Neo is a baby food maker and food processor by Béaba. It’s a six-in-one appliance that can steam, mix, thaw, reheat, warm and sterilize. Not only is it designed to use less water and energy than previous models by the same brand, but the soft-steam cooking function is also gentle enough to preserve both the flavor and nutritional value of the food you cook.
“This machine is so quick, easy to use and can all go in the dishwasher, which is just the sort of convenience you need when your days are jam-packed taking care of a baby,” Masin says. “The biggest selling point for me is knowing exactly what’s going into my baby’s food, that there are no additives and that it’s BPA-, lead- and plastic-free.”
It consists of a 1,250-milliliter glass bowl, a 1,000-milliliter stainless steel bowl and a basket. “Most other baby food makers use plastic, so this one is non-toxic and eco-friendly,” Masin says. “The bowl holds a 5.2-cup capacity, meaning you can make quite a bit of food in one go. I like this because I can freeze the rest and use it at a later time. I usually store three or more portions in the freezer. It takes all of two minutes to peel, chop and add the items into the machine, which does all the work while you can do something else—that’s super-efficient in my eyes.”
