Muslin Squares, 100% Cotton Burp Cloths, Pack of 12
6.7/10 overallAround £12.99 for 12
Large, ultra-absorbent 100% cotton muslin squares for burping and general baby cleanup, pack of 12.
These are certified organic cotton, which matters to some parents specifically for anything that goes near a newborn's face regularly. The size sits between a basic supermarket muslin and aden + anais's oversized squares — big enough to be useful over a shoulder, not so big that it's unwieldy for quick wipe-ups.
Compared with aden + anais, JoJo Maman Bébé's squares are a middle-ground pick: organic cotton credentials without the premium oversized-swaddle price tag, but also less useful as a genuine pram-cover replacement given the smaller size.

How we scored it
Absorbency
How much spit-up or dribble a single cloth can soak up before needing swapping.
Solid everyday absorbency for spit-up and dribble.
Softness & Size
Gentleness against newborn skin and whether the cloth is large enough to double as a light swaddle.
Soft organic cotton, but mid-sized rather than oversized.
Value per Pack
Cost per cloth in the pack, since these wear out and get lost fast.
Organic certification adds cost versus standard cotton.
