While you might think that babies' favourite fruits are bananas and apples, it turns out their preferences are more exotic than many people assume — scroll down for top ten exciting tastes for babies.

Mango and cinnamon have been revealed as the "most thrilling tastes for babies" in a taste trial tested out on little ones.

Babies' physiological reactions were measured when they tried a variety of different fruits, vegetables and spices and the results were surprising.

 



The study, created by Ella's Kitchen in partnership with Thrill Laboratory, measured the tots' Galvanic Skin Response – that is the micro-fluctuations in their sweat levels.

Researchers combined these scores with facial expression and body language analysis from parents to determine how positive their responses were.

 



A rise in Galvanic Skin Response, together with positive facial analysis from parents, expressed just how excited the baby was when tasting the food.

The bespoke 'thrill-o-meter' test revealed the top 10 most exciting tastes for babies:

1. Mango
2. Cinnamon
3. Lemon
4. Coconut
5. Banana
6. Papaya
7. Red pepper
8. Apricot
9. Sweet potato
10. Carrot
