The Splendid Spoon
The Splendid Spoon may be best known for its soup cleanses, but there's no need to use them as such.

Plus many of them are pureed, making them convenient for on-the-go consumption.

Daily Harvest
The healthiest way to "disguise" fruits and vegetables is to freeze and blend them. You'll be left with a thick, sorbet-like consistency and because fruit is sweet, this should work well to soothe sugar cravings. Not all blends are created equally, however, and that's where Daily Harvest comes in. The brand makes pre-washed, pre-measured and pre-chopped frozen smoothie blends. Everything you need to make one smoothie is contained in a bag and the selection is constantly rotating based on what's in season, making for very unique blends. Plus it "dresses up" produce with things like cocoa, cinnamon and nutmeg, making them so delicious, they actually taste equally great unfrozen. The Pumpkin Pie bag, for example, contains carrots, walnuts, sweet potatoes, banana, nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger and dates — and all ingredients are organic. Frozen cinnamon covered bananas are amazing!
