Holle Organic Baby Formula Stage 2 for Babies 6 to 12 Months

Holle Organic Baby Formula Stage 2 is a Demeter biodynamic follow-on formula based on organic skimmed cow milk, designed for babies from 6 months as solid foods begin to complement their daily nutrition. Made in Germany under the same biodynamic standards that have defined Holle since 1933, it is a natural next step for families already using the Stage 1 formula. Breast milk remains ideal whenever possible, and your pediatrician is the best guide for decisions about your baby's feeding.

Demeter Biodynamic at Every Stage

Holle has been producing organic baby food since 1933, with its headquarters in Riehen, Switzerland and its formulas manufactured in Germany. The Holle Organic Baby Formula line is certified to Demeter biodynamic standards, which require farms to operate as closed, self-sustaining ecosystems. This goes well beyond what standard EU organic certification mandates, with additional requirements around biodiversity, animal welfare, and soil management.

Stage 2 carries a total Demeter share of 68 percent. The skimmed cow milk that forms the base of this formula is sourced from Demeter-certified farms. Browse the full Holle cow milk formula range to see all stages available for your baby.

Follow-On Formula for Babies from 6 Months

At 6 months, babies typically begin exploring pureed and mashed solid foods. Stage 2 is designed to complement this new diet, providing nutrients that may be less consistent in early solid food intake. The formula uses organic Demeter-certified skimmed cow milk alongside whey protein, with intact proteins appropriate for healthy babies who tolerate cow milk.

Families who started with Stage 1 of the Holle organic cow line will find Stage 2 a consistent continuation. The Holle Formula Stage 2 collection page has more detail on this transition.

Ingredients and Nutritional Profile

At Stage 2, the carbohydrate blend expands to include maltodextrin and starch alongside lactose from the milk and whey base. This provides a broader energy source suited to a more active baby. The vegetable oil blend includes organic palm oil. DHA is supplied by oil from the microalgae Schizochytrium sp. ARA is not present in Stage 2, consistent with reduced ARA requirements at this age.

The formula does not contain added probiotic cultures or prebiotic GOS. Its composition is free from synthetic preservatives and artificial additives, in keeping with Holle's clean-label standard.

Certified European Quality, Shipped to Your Door

Holle Organic Baby Formula Stage 2 is produced under EU infant formula regulations and is available through Organic Formula Europe as an authentic European import. Cans are shipped sealed and unopened directly from Europe to US families, with no intermediary repackaging.

The expiration date uses the European DD/MM/YYYY format. A date printed as 15/10/2026 means October 15, 2026. Store in a cool, dry location and use within the period specified on the label after opening.

Preparation and Everyday Use

Always prepare formula following the instructions on the can. Use freshly boiled water cooled to the specified temperature, and make each bottle fresh rather than preparing in bulk. Powdered infant formula is not sterile, so clean equipment and careful measurement are essential. Use only the scoop included in the can, and measure powder and water in the exact ratio stated on the label.

How to Prepare Powdered Formula

  1. 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.
  2. Pour about two-thirds of the required water into a clean, sterilized bottle.
  3. 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.
  4. Close the bottle with the nipple and cap. Shake vigorously until all powder is dissolved.
  5. Add the remaining water and shake again.
  6. Cool to drinking temperature (approx. 98 °F / 37 °C). Always test the milk temperature before feeding to avoid scalding your baby.

Important Information

  1. Only use the scoop included in the package.
  2. Do not make feeds weaker or stronger than indicated. Do not add extra water, scoops, or other ingredients.
  3. Always prepare fresh. Do not prepare bottles in advance. Discard any leftovers after each feed.
  4. Never heat bottles in the microwave - hot spots can cause burns.
  5. Once opened, use formula within 21 days. Never use beyond the expiration date printed on the box/tin (format: day/month/year).
  6. Avoid storing formula in hot or humid environments.

Breast milk is the best source of nutrition for infants. Please consult your pediatrician before introducing or changing infant formula. Infant formula is designed to meet the nutritional requirements of infants according to age. It contains carbohydrates, which are an essential part of infant nutrition. As with any carbohydrate-containing liquids, frequent or prolonged contact with the teeth may increase the risk of tooth decay. To support healthy dental habits, avoid extended bottle use and encourage transitioning to a cup when age-appropriate.

Packaging may change without notice. Always follow the preparation, storage, and feeding instructions provided on your product packaging.

What age is Holle Organic Baby Formula Stage 2 suitable for?

Holle Stage 2 is specifically designed for babies aged 6 to 10 months. This follow-on formula serves as a natural progression from Holle Stage Pre or Stage 1, providing enhanced nutrition to support your growing baby's development during the weaning phase when you're introducing solid foods.

What makes Holle Stage 2 different from Stage 1?

The key difference lies in the nutritional composition tailored for older babies. Holle Stage 2 contains higher iron levels (1 mg per 100ml compared to 0.54 mg in earlier stages) to support neurological development. Additionally, it includes organic maltodextrin and starch alongside lactose, creating a more filling formula that provides sustained energy for your active baby. When shopping for Organic Formulas, understanding these stage differences helps ensure your little one gets age-appropriate nutrition.

Is Holle Stage 2 made with Demeter-certified ingredients?

Yes, Holle Stage 2 features premium Demeter-certified biodynamic organic milk as its primary ingredient. This certification represents the highest standard in organic farming, ensuring cows have year-round access to fresh air, consume 100% organic fodder, and are never dehorned. These ethical farming practices result in milk with higher levels of Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, as well as vitamin E.

Can I use Holle Stage 2 as a complete replacement for breast milk?

Holle Stage 2 is designed as a follow-on formula that can complement or serve as an alternative to breastfeeding for babies 6 months and older. While it provides comprehensive nutrition including essential vitamins, minerals, and 1.6 µg of vitamin D per 100ml to support immunity and bone health, it should be used alongside a mixed diet with solid foods. Many parents find it particularly helpful during the transition from breastfeeding or when looking for quality Holle Formula Stage 2 options.

Does Holle Stage 2 contain fish oil or other allergens?

Holle Stage 2 is formulated without fish oil, making it suitable for families who prefer to avoid marine-derived ingredients. The formula focuses on clean, simple ingredients including organic skim milk, whey powder, vegetable oils, and essential vitamins and minerals. It's free from unnecessary additives and maintains Holle's commitment to pure, organic nutrition for your baby.
