Baby biscuits are also known as teething biscuits or teething rusks. They’re rather firm cookies that help soothe your baby’s gums while they’re teething.
Between the ages of 4 and 24 months, your baby’s teeth are starting to grow. Therefore, they will be experiencing some form of discomfort including red and sore gums, drooling, irritability and so on.
Biting on one of the baby biscuits helps with these symptoms. It’s also important to ensure that the teething rusks you choose are healthy and nutritious too.
Furthermore, they should be free from preservatives, artificial colourings, excess sugar and other unhealthy elements. Here are some of the baby rusks we recommend:
Heinz Farley’s Rusks
Heinz is a well-known brand from the US and they have many of their products on our store shelves. For example, they’re known for their canned beans and bottled sauces.
Many may not know that they also produce baby food, including Farley’s rusks. These biscuits are fortified with DHA for brain development, Vitamins B1 and B2 for energy and nerve development, as well as calcium for strong teeth and bones.

Here’s yet another biscuit made from rice, and this time it comes directly from Korea.
The Ildong Ayimeal rice rusks are completely organic, and they’re available in three flavours. These include white rice, spinach and purple sweet potato.
The biscuits are firm enough to soothe your baby’s gums but will melt in their mouths and become soft enough to eat later on.

Taking Baby Teething Biscuits with You
When buying baby biscuits, it’s important to consider packaging. You’ll want biscuits that can stay fresh for longer. Individually packed biscuits and those in resealable bags are even better, as they can be easily brought along in your baby bag
In addition to just soothing your baby’s gums, they also function as a great snack and convenient distraction when you need them the most.
