Holle Goat German Stage 4 is a wholesome, easy-to-digest formula and a triple-certified organic goat milk toddler formula for children from 12 months. Certified EU Organic, Bio-Siegel (Germany's national organic seal), and Demeter Biodynamic, it represents the highest combination of organic standards available in European baby formula. Holle is one of the world's most well-respected organic baby formula brands, with a decades-long commitment to using only high-quality, sustainably sourced ingredients from well-cared-for animals. This is the 400g German-market version, made with organic whole goat milk from Demeter biodynamic farms. Stage 4 is designed for toddlers who eat a varied diet of solid foods and need supplementary nutrition alongside meals.
 

Goat milk naturally contains A2 beta-casein protein and forms a smaller, softer curd during digestion compared to standard cow milk. Its gentle composition can support toddlers with sensitive stomachs by easing common digestive issues such as gas, bloating, constipation, cramps, and colic. In addition to goat milk, it contains essential nutrients such as iron, calcium, and zinc, as well as vitamins A, B12, C, and D. Holle Goat Stage 4 uses exclusively organic whole goat milk (not skimmed), preserving the milk's natural protein and fat profile.

Holle Goat Stage 4 is formulated for the specific nutritional needs of toddlers aged 12 months and older. It provides 64 kcal per 100ml when prepared, with organic lactose as the primary carbohydrate, along with organic maltodextrin and a small amount of organic starch. Notably, Stage 4 delivers the highest iron content in the Holle Goat German range at 1.0mg per 100ml, reflecting the increased iron requirements of active toddlers. As the final stage in the complete Holle Goat range, it follows seamlessly from Holle Goat Stage 3 (10+ months).

Stage 4 provides DHA (13mg per 100ml) from microalgae oil (Schizochytrium sp.), supporting continued brain development during this critical growth period. Because DHA comes from algae rather than fish oil, this formula is suitable for vegetarian families. Palm oil free: uses only organic sunflower oil and organic rapeseed oil. Goat milk naturally provides palmitic acid, so no palm oil supplementation is needed. Also free from soy, gluten, GMOs, corn syrup, and artificial additives.

Not sure how much to order? Whether you are stocking up for a few weeks or a couple of months, our formula calculator shows exactly how many boxes your baby needs. One tip from experienced parents: babies grow through their formula faster than you expect, so it is worth ordering your next supply before the current can runs low.

Please note: 

• If your baby has been diagnosed with a cow’s milk protein allergy (rather than just showing signs of sensitivity), it is not very likely that Holle goat milk formulas will be suitable. You might consider one of our hypoallergenic formulas, which contain hydrolyzed proteins that are less likely to provoke an allergic response.
• Before deciding to bottle-feed, we advise consulting your pediatrician.
