Gerber Get’ems! Squeezies are a new snack product being added to the brand's portfolio as a shelf-stable option that's crafted with flavor, nutrition and versatility in mind. The pouch-packaged smoothie combines fruit and vegetable puree with no artificial flavors or added sugar to prioritize a clean ingredient recipe. The snack comes in three flavors including Peach Apple Twist, Cherry Limeade and Apple Sweet Potato Splash, which are each formulated for enjoyment either right off the shelf, out of the fridge or even frozen.
Gerber Get’ems! Squeezies are suited for children aged three and up, and prioritize versatility to work well for a number of family snacking occasions. The smoothies come in boxes of four servings that can either be twisted open at the cap or cup open at the top, depending on the consumption preferences.
