Stay at Home Mother of Two Invents Innovative Self-Feeding Baby Spoon - Yummy Spoon

Wins ‘Best New Product of 2016’ at Nation’s Biggest Tradeshow

Albuquerque, NM -- (SBWire) -- 08/09/2016 --A stay at home mother of two's 'Yummy Spoon' invention was named the "Best New Product" of 2016 by ECRM and Drug Store News. An award voted on by some of the nation's largest retailers attending the ECRM tradeshow in Orlando, FL. It was selected over major brands in the baby product industry. The Yummy Spoon is the world's only self-feeding baby spoon designed to feed whole bananas, whole avocados, sweet potatoes, pureed fruits & vegetables, oatmeal and all other types of homemade baby food recipes. It works by inserting a whole food, such as an entire banana, squeezing the Yummy Spoon to puree its contents, and then squeezing it through an opening onto the bowl of the spoon.

Gina Cormier, a busy high school soccer coach and mother of two children created the Yummy Spoon to help feed her children while on-the-go. Gina was inspired to invent the Yummy Spoon after the birth of her son, Tristan. "Trying to make homemade food on-the-go was very difficult. I wanted to feed my son natural foods that I knew he liked," said Cormier. "I didn't have time to make baby food and pack it up for day trips. I thought that if I could just store a banana or avocado into a self-dispensing spoon and squeeze it onto the spoon when I was ready, then I could feed Tristan at the park or at a restaurant," said Cormier. "I wanted to make a product for moms, by moms."
