HiPP Dutch Organic Formula Stage 2 for Babies 6-10 Months
HiPP Dutch Organic Formula Stage 2 is a certified EU-organic follow-on formula intended for babies from 6 months alongside the gradual introduction of solid foods. Built on the same HiPP Bio Combiotik foundation as Stage 1, it contains GOS prebiotics from lactose and natural lactic acid cultures, while the nutrient profile evolves to meet the changing needs of older infants. Breast milk remains the best source of nutrition, and parents should consult a pediatrician before introducing any new formula.
A Trusted Brand With Over 125 Years Of Baby-Food Expertise
Founded in 1899 by Joseph and Maria Hipp, HiPP has grown from a small family farm in Bavaria into one of Europe's most recognized organic baby food producers. The company remains family-run under its fourth generation, maintaining a private organic quality standard that the company states goes beyond the EU organic regulation.
HiPP Dutch Stage 2 carries the EU organic leaf, identified by the control-body code DE-ÖKO-001 and independently inspected by Contrôle Certisys. Under this EU organic leaf, the organic ingredients may come from EU and non-EU agriculture. HiPP additionally applies its own HiPP Bio quality standard, which is HiPP's own company standard rather than an independent certification. This formula is not Demeter certified.
Designed for Babies from 6 Months
Stage 2 is a follow-on formula for babies who have begun or are beginning complementary feeding. Its nutrient composition is adjusted for this developmental stage, with iron and other micronutrients calibrated for older infants who are no longer exclusively formula-fed.
Like Stage 1, the HiPP Dutch line is formulated without added starch or maltodextrin, keeping lactose as the primary carbohydrate source alongside GOS prebiotics from lactose.
Ingredients and Composition
The protein base is organic skimmed cow's milk (Magere melk) and organic whey product (weiproduct), providing intact cow's milk protein. The formula is not hydrolyzed and is not suitable for infants with a confirmed cow's milk protein allergy. Carbohydrates are supplied by lactose only, with no starch or maltodextrin in the ingredient list.
The vegetable oil blend includes organic palm oil. DHA is derived from fish oil (visolie). ARA is not present in Stage 2. The GOS prebiotic and natural lactic acid culture together make up the Combiotik combination used across the HiPP range
Sourced and Shipped Authentically from Europe
EU infant formula regulations require DHA in every can, a standard that remains optional in the US. Organic Formula Europe imports factory-sealed cans directly from European distributors, so the product that arrives at your door is identical to what Dutch families buy in their local pharmacy.
Cans are inspected for seal integrity and freshness. The expiration date on the base of each can is printed in European DD/MM/YYYY format. If you are building a supply, our team is happy to advise on rotation and storage.
Preparation and Transitioning Between Stages
Always prepare each bottle fresh according to the instructions on the can. Use water that has been boiled and cooled appropriately. Powdered infant formula is not a sterile product, so follow safe preparation guidance from your healthcare provider.
If your baby is moving on from HiPP Dutch Stage 2, Stage 3 is available for babies around 10 to 12 months. Speak with your pediatrician about the right time to progress.
Packaging at a Glance
- 800g resealable can
- Includes a measuring scoop
- European date format (DD/MM/YYYY) on the base of the can
- Use within 3 weeks of opening
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.
