Plant-Based Kids Nutrition, Voted Best Children's Product at the World Food Innovation Awards.
Sprout Organic is Australia's pioneering plant-based children's nutrition brand — and the company behind the world's first certified organic vegan infant formula. Founded by Sel and Jen, two Australian parents who saw a gap the entire global infant nutrition industry had overlooked, Sprout was built from the ground up to prove that babies and toddlers could thrive on plants alone.
From day one, Sprout's mission has been to reimagine children's nutrition. By choosing only organic, plant-based ingredients and eliminating dairy, soy, and animal-derived components entirely, Sprout delivers clean, wholesome nutrition for little ones — without shortcuts, without compromise.
Certified to the Highest Standards
Sprout Organic holds Australian Certified Organic (ACO) certification — independently verified, not self-declared. Every ingredient is grown without synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, or GMOs, in compliance with strict Australian organic standards. Sprout is also certified vegan by Vegan Australia, ensuring no animal ingredients or by-products are present at any stage of production.
Sustainability at the Core
Sprout is Carbon Neutral Certified through the Australian Government's Climate Active program, actively offsetting emissions across its operations. All tins, lids, and scoops are fully recyclable and BPA-free. For Sprout, protecting the planet is inseparable from protecting the children who will inherit it.
Developed with Experts
Sprout formulas are developed in collaboration with Australian pediatricians, accredited dietitians, midwives, and food scientists. Every product meets the strict nutritional requirements of Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) and undergoes extensive safety testing before reaching families.
A Global First, Globally Recognized
When Sprout launched in June 2021, it disrupted an infant nutrition industry that had remained essentially unchanged for over 120 years. In 2022, that disruption earned global recognition — Sprout was voted Best Children's Product at the World Food Innovation Awards, setting a new benchmark for what plant-based children's nutrition could be.
Explore the full Sprout Organic range at The Milky Box, including the Sprout Organic Infant Formula (0–12 months) and the Sprout Organic Toddler Drink (12+ months). If you're weighing your options, our Sprout Organic vs Enfamil ProSobee comparison guide and our guide to why parents are choosing plant-based formula in 2026 are great places to start.

Organic Plant-Based Nutrition for Growing Kids — With a Taste They'll Actually Love.
Sprout Essential Shake Chocolate is a certified organic, plant-based kids' nutrition shake designed for children from 12 months. More than a toddler formula, it's a complete daily nutrition solution for growing kids — particularly useful for fussy eaters or children who need extra support meeting their nutritional needs through diet alone.
Each serve delivers 10.8g of complete plant protein from a 52% organic plant protein blend of fermented pea protein and brown rice protein — two of the most digestible plant protein sources available, providing a full amino acid profile. Organic coconut MCT oil provides a fast-burning, easily absorbed energy source, while organic inulin acts as a natural prebiotic to support healthy gut function. Lactobacillus acidophilus probiotics further strengthen digestive health and immunity.
The nutritional profile is impressive: each serve provides 50% of a toddler's recommended daily iron intake, 50% of Vitamin D, 50% of B12, and a broad spectrum of essential vitamins and minerals to support energy, growth, and brain development. Algal DHA (plant-sourced Omega-3) rounds out the formula with targeted support for brain and eye development.
Free from dairy, soy, lactose, corn syrup, and artificial flavors, colors, or sweeteners — Sprout uses organic steviol glycosides for a gentle natural sweetness. Certified organic (Cert. No. SXC 25155), 100% vegan, carbon neutral, and halal certified.
Available in Chocolate and Vanilla. For younger babies, explore Sprout Organic Infant Formula (0–12 months) or the full Sprout Organic collection.
