Description
HiPP Dutch Stage 4 Junior COMBIOTIK is a growing-up milk for toddlers from 24 months, served as part of a varied diet. It follows naturally after HiPP Dutch Stage 3 and fits just as well in a cup at breakfast as in the old familiar bottle.
By age two, mealtimes have opinions. Some days everything gets eaten, other days three bites count as lunch. HiPP Junior is built for exactly this stage: a light milk of about 51 kcal per 100 ml that fills the nutritional gaps a picky week leaves behind. It brings extra vitamin D and iron for the immune system, calcium for bones that grow with every climb, and DHA for a busy, curious brain. The recipe stays clean, with no added sugar, no starch, no maltodextrin, and no soy.
This mild toddler milk is crafted in Germany for the Dutch market and comes in an 800 g (28.2 oz) can. Labeling is Dutch and French, which is why we translated the preparation instructions and ingredient info into English here.
This formula is rated 4.9 stars by parents in our store. "My babe is so happy and healthy!"

What Makes This Formula Special
A toddler's diet is wonderfully unpredictable, and that is normal. What HiPP Junior does is quietly steady the numbers underneath: iron rises to 1.2 mg per 100 ml because toddlers keep needing more than meals reliably deliver, vitamin D comes generously because it supports both the immune system and calcium absorption, and calcium itself steps up for bones and teeth. Milk sugar is the only sugar in the recipe, so a daily cup or two adds nutrition without adding sweetness a toddler does not need.
The heart of the recipe is still COMBIOTIK, HiPP's synbiotic combination of GOS prebiotic fibers and the natural lactic acid culture L. fermentum, originally found in breast milk. A settled gut supports immunity, which matters double once daycare germs enter the picture. HiPP also uses Metafolin® instead of synthetic folic acid, a natural premium folate the body can use right away.
One honest note: unlike the earlier Dutch stages, Junior does not carry the EU Organic seal. It is made in the same German plant, with the same COMBIOTIK recipe heart and the same strict HiPP quality checks, and the ingredient list stays just as clean, free from GMOs, artificial flavors, colors, and preservatives.
A practical tip from the can: mix with water at 40 to 50 degrees, never boiling, so the natural cultures stay alive and useful. Looking for the earlier steps? HiPP Dutch Stage 3 covers 10 months onward, and our formulas for sensitive tummies carry the gentle specialty options.
Safety, Quality and Animal Welfare
Every batch goes through up to 260 safety checks before it leaves quarantine, from the raw milk to the finished can. HiPP tests far more residues than the law requires and only packs a batch if it meets HiPP's own tighter limits.
EU rules for baby and toddler milks follow the strict European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) framework, a higher bar than FDA standards, and they apply to all EU and UK formulas we carry. Read more in our EU vs US formula guide.

How to make a bottle

HiPP Dutch Stage 4 Junior Combiotik uses a one-step cup mixing method (this is a growing milk served in a cup, not a bottle).
- Wash your hands thoroughly.
- Boil fresh drinking water and let it cool. Do not pour boiling water directly onto the powder, as this may damage the natural probiotic cultures.
- Pour the required amount of cooled water into a clean cup.
- Add the recommended number of scoops using only the scoop included in this can. Fill the scoop loosely and level it off. Scoop size: 3.6g (one scoop per 30ml of water).
- Stir until the powder is fully dissolved. 6. Check the drinking temperature, approximately 37°C (98°F). Always test on the inside of your wrist before serving.
Important Information:
- Only use the scoop provided in the pack.
- Do not make feeds weaker or stronger than indicated by adding extra water/scoops, and do not add anything else to the milk.
- Always freshly prepare formula and do not prepare in advance. Use immediately, and discard leftovers at the end of the feed.
- Do not heat a bottle in a microwave, as hot spots may occur, which could cause scalding.
- All opened formulas should be used within 21 days. Never use a formula beyond its expiration date. The expiration date on the formula box/tin is listed according to European standards: day/month/year
- Avoid storing in areas of high heat or humidity.
