Organic nutrition, premium ingredients - trusted worldwide!

Suitable for use from birth until six months, families use this stage as a complete source of nutrition or as a gentle complement to breast milk.

Holle Stage 1 uses a small number of select ingredients that are both EU Organic and independent Demeter certificated to ensure the purest powdered nutrition.

The main difference between Holle Stage Pre and Holle Stage 1 is using organic lactose and corn-derived maltodextrin to create a smooth, creamy texture that helps give added energy and keeps babies feeling fuller longer.

This stage has the perfect ratio of proteins, vitamins, and minerals to provide your baby with the nutrients they need without artificial preservatives, toxic chemicals, or artificial ingredients.

Holle Bio Stage 1 is 400g of premium organic powder baby formula.

How much Holle Bio Stage 1 should you buy? 

The amount of formula your family will need is based on the assumption that this is the primary source of nutrition within your baby's diet. 

On average, a typical baby uses eight boxes of Holle Bio Stage 1 per month when fed using Holle’sfeeding instructions. 

If you supplement with breast milk or solid foods, individual needs/ calculations may differ. Always follow your pediatrician’s advice for unique feeding instructions.

Please note: The manufacturer may make updates to the style at any moment without notice. Always follow the instructions on your packaging, even if they differ from the above teachings. Please contact our formula experts for clarification if you have any questions or concerns.

  1. Always wash and dry hands before preparing baby’s meal. Wash and sterilize all bottles, nipples, and caps by boiling them for 3 to 5 minutes.
  2. Boil water to 212 degrees Fahrenheit ( 50 degrees C). Pour half of the water into a bottle for an individual serving.
  3. Fill the scoop and level (with the back of a clean knife). Only the enclosed scoop should be used. Add the entire quantity of milk powder indicated on the table to the water.
  4. Shake thoroughly, add the rest of the water, and shake again. Allow cooling to 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit ( 37 degrees C) before feeding.

    Best formula EVER!!

    Both of my babies went from breast feeding until 3 months max and then switched to Holle and never saw change in digestion or had any problems. The consistency is perfect, doesn’t stink like other formulas, and super easy to use. The only issue (only happened ONE time) was watching for holdups in customs.
