HiPP Dutch Organic Formula Stage 1 for Newborns 0 to 6 Months
HiPP Dutch Organic Formula Stage 1 is a certified EU-organic infant formula designed for babies from birth to 6 months. It is made with organic skimmed cow's milk and follows the HiPP Combiotik recipe, with GOS prebiotics and natural lactic acid cultures. As with all infant formulas, breast milk remains the ideal first choice, and we encourage parents to speak with a pediatrician before introducing or changing formula.
Over 125 Years of Family Expertise in Infant Nutrition
HiPP has been making baby food since 1899, when Joseph and Maria Hipp's confectionery in Pfaffenhofen an der Ilm, Germany produced the first baby food from rusk flour. The company is now in its fourth generation under Stefan Hipp and applies its own HiPP organic standard, which it states goes beyond the requirements of the EU organic regulation.
Each can carries the EU organic leaf with the control-body code DE-ÖKO-001 (EU/non-EU Agriculture) and the Controle Certisys organic inspection mark, confirming that the ingredients come from certified organic farming. The formula is produced in Germany and is not Demeter certified.
What Makes HiPP Dutch Stage 1 Different
The Dutch line is a popular choice among parents looking for an EU organic cow's milk formula without added starch. HiPP Dutch Stage 1 is formulated with lactose as the sole carbohydrate source, with no maltodextrin or starch listed in the ingredient panel.
The formula includes the HiPP Combiotik combination of GOS (galacto-oligosaccharides) from lactose plus natural lactic acid cultures. GOS and lactic acid cultures are also present in breast milk, which remains the first choice for infant feeding.
Ingredients and Composition
The protein base is organic skimmed cow's milk (Magere melk) combined with organic whey product (weiproduct), providing a whey-dominant protein profile appropriate for newborns. Carbohydrates come from lactose only, with no added starch or maltodextrin. The vegetable oil blend contains organic palm oil alongside other organic plant oils.
DHA is derived from fish oil, and ARA is present via Mortierella alpina oil. The protein is not hydrolyzed, making this a standard formula for healthy infants without a confirmed cow's milk protein allergy.
Authentic European Quality, Shipped to the US
European infant formula is produced under EU Regulation 2016/127, which mandates DHA in all infant formulas, a standard not yet required in the US. Organic Formula Europe ships authentic, factory-sealed cans directly from Europe so that US families can access the same formula sold in Dutch and German pharmacies.
Every can you receive is the genuine Dutch-market product, with a European-format expiration date (DD/MM/YYYY). Our team verifies each shipment for freshness and integrity before it leaves our warehouse.
Preparation and Everyday Use
Always follow the preparation instructions printed on the can. Use freshly boiled water that has been allowed to cool, and prepare each bottle fresh to minimize bacterial risk. Powdered infant formula is not sterile; for higher-risk infants, consult CDC or WHO guidance on safe water temperatures.
If your baby is approaching 6 months and you are considering the next step, HiPP formula Stage 2 is available to support the transition to complementary feeding.
Packaging at a Glance
- 800g resealable can
- Includes a measuring scoop
- Use within 3 weeks of opening
- European date format (DD/MM/YYYY) on the base of the can
How to Prepare Powdered Formula
- Boil fresh water for each feed and let it cool to the temperature printed on your can. Powdered infant formula is not sterile, so the CDC and WHO advise that water at about 158°F (70°C) lowers the risk of Cronobacter, especially for newborns and higher-risk infants. Follow your can's instructions and ask your pediatrician which approach is right for your baby.
- Pour about two-thirds of the required water into a clean, sterilized bottle.
- Use only the scoop provided with your formula pack (sizes may vary). Add the correct number of level scoops - 1 scoop per 1 oz / 30 ml of water.
- Close the bottle with the nipple and cap. Shake vigorously until all powder is dissolved.
- Add the remaining water and shake again.
- Cool to drinking temperature (approx. 98 °F / 37 °C). Always test the milk temperature before feeding to avoid scalding your baby.
Important Information
- Only use the scoop included in the package.
- Do not make feeds weaker or stronger than indicated. Do not add extra water, scoops, or other ingredients.
- Always prepare fresh. Do not prepare bottles in advance. Discard any leftovers after each feed.
- Never heat bottles in the microwave - hot spots can cause burns.
- Once opened, use formula within 21 days. Never use beyond the expiration date printed on the box/tin (format: day/month/year).
- Avoid storing formula in hot or humid environments.
