Hello fellow mommies! I was wondering if any of you knew where I can find soup/salad noodles in cool shapes (abc's, stars, etc..) for my daughter. I'm in the process of giving her more solid foods and would like to give her noodles that I don't have to cut up. I know they exist because a friend of mine has used them and she doesn't remember where she got them. I'm going to try orzo soon, but I thought stars, abc's would be fun for her, since she loves the little Gerber star shaped puffs. I've looked at Safeway, Long's, PW Market without any success. Whole Foods, Cost Plus, Lucky's, Raley's are next on my list. If you have any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it!! Thanks!!
I found some big alphabet (about 1") and rocket/alien pasta noodles at Cost Plus. My kids love them!
I "Googled" alphabet noodles and found packages for $1.99 at Bende. Check out www.bende.com.
They used always be in the pasta section in boxes. Hope you find them.
Expensive, but I found some "holiday (X-mas, Easter)" ones at Williams Sonoma. Try searching on line to see what you can find, but I know around the holidays you can usually find them at Cost Plus with the holiday theme. They may have others year round.
Mexican grocery stores have them, too.
I just got some ABC pasta from Safeway (ask someone if you can't find it, it is not located in the general pasta area) and Babiesrus (organic for about $1.59). I have seen a different kind in Trader Joe's.
Trader Joes has alphabet pasta that my kids love.

I was just at Trader Joes yesterday and found some fun organic alphabet shaped pasta for my son.
trader joes has an excellent pasta in the shape of the alphabet, "Alphabet Pasta". the shapes are variously green, red, or regular. made with spinach and tomato, and completely organic.
price per bad is under $1.50.
hope she enjoys!

Hi. Check the Mexican food section of the grocery store. I recall that I bought stars and ABC's in that section long ago. They are not in boxes, but in little bags. It was probably Albertson's/Lucky's where I found them. I can no longer remember the brand.
You can find some really fun shapes if you are willing to mail order them.
earth's best organic foods makes very small alphabet shape pasta shapes. trader joe's has alphabet pasta also, but in bigger shapes. cost plus world market also has holiday shaped pasta around the corresponding holiday times. good luck.
I just got some big ABCs at Trader Joes
whole foods has alphabet pasta and small stars
You can find those pastas in Mexican Stores, they have various brands, but the best is "La Moderna".
