One five-star review said: "The Tortilla Baby was a great gift for friends (he's an Executive Chef) celebrating the birth of their newborn son. The gift was humorous, fun, unforgettable, and actually practical for the new little "baby burrito", Ben. It was well-made, great graphics and quality materials. I bought it with the taco booties too'

Another buyer commented: " bought this as a baby shower gift for friends having their first and they loved it! It is a little confusing to figure out what it is when just looking at the package, but once they opened it up and pulled out the blanket and beanie.. they figured it out. Can't wait to see their little burrito all wrapped up! The helpful note about how to wrap up the little one was a lovely addition for new parents."

While a third simple enthused: "The perfect gift for a mexican food obsessed, mother to be!"
