Neither milkatlas nor any seller we track ships it to the markets we cover. It is documented here because it appears in the HiPP range and parents ask about it. ### Tell me if that changes Email One email if a tracked seller starts stocking it. Nothing else. ## What is in HiPP UK Growing Up Milk ready to feed? Water comes first, then organic skimmed milk, organic cream, organic lactose, organic sunflower and rapeseed oils and a lecithin emulsifier. (Source 1) There are no galacto-oligosaccharides in it and no lactic culture, which makes it the only bottle in this range with neither. Its DHA comes from algal oil. (Source 1) *The start of the ingredients list as printed on the label; the list runs on down the bottle.* Evidence · Manufacturer claim HiPP lists vitamins A, C and D, calcium, iron and zinc with their share of the daily reference value, which is the form the law requires for that kind of claim. Those are HiPP's claims about its own product.

The last column is the range for follow-on formula in Regulation (EU) 2016/127, Annex II, per 100 kcal unless it says per 100 ml. HiPP gives values per 100 ml only, so the per 100 kcal column is calculated from them. Every value is for 100 ml as poured. This is the thinnest milk of the four bottles: least energy, least fat, least sugar, and the most protein. (Source 1) HiPP UK's product page gives the fluoride row as a greater-than, where every other HiPP panel we have read gives a less-than. The label on the bottle prints < 0.0050 mg, a less-than like the rest, so the table follows the label. (Source 1) (Source 8) *The top of the nutrition information on the label, per 100 ml. If the label and this page ever disagree, the label is right and we log a correction.* Evidence · Regulation A milk for young children is not an infant formula and is not covered by the composition rules in Regulation (EU) 2016/127, Annex I. What the label may claim is still set by the food information and claims rules. (Source 3) ## How do you prepare it? Wash your hands and the beaker, check the cap and seal, shake the bottle and pour. Use what you pour within two hours, and reseal the rest and keep it in the fridge for up to 72 hours. (Source 1) HiPP UK's general FAQ, on its first milk page, gives growing-up milk two days instead. This bottle's own instructions and its own FAQ both say three days, and the label on the bottle in your hand is the one to go by. (Source 1) (Source 7) Nothing is added: the bottle is already at drinking strength. Pour out what you need and give it at room temperature, or warm it and check it first. Keep an opened bottle in the fridge for no longer than 72 hours. - **Check best before date, and that cap and seal is intact, then shake bottle well.**: Sediment before shaking is normal; HiPP prints that on every bottle in the range. - **Pour required amount of milk into a beaker and use within 2 hours.**: A beaker, not a bottle: HiPP assumes a toddler is off the bottle by now. - **Milk can be given at room temperature or warmed if desired. If warmed check temperature before feeding.**: Cold is fine. Warmed, check it first, and never in a microwave. - **Unused milk left in this bottle can be resealed and stored in the fridge for up to 72 hours.**: Three days, where the younger bottles in the range allow one. Evidence · Manufacturer claim The three-day rule is HiPP's own, given for this bottle alone. We have not found HiPP explaining why this milk keeps longer than the others once opened. (Source 1) ## How much should a baby drink? No chart by age: HiPP asks for about 350 ml a day, as a drink, on cereal or added to food, and says a toddler may need more or less. (Source 1) Evidence · Manufacturer claim The daily amount is HiPP's guide for its own product. By twelve months, milk is one part of a varied diet rather than the whole of it. (Source 1) ## Who is it for, and who is it not for? For toddlers from twelve months, alongside a varied diet, as an alternative to cows' milk. HiPP calls the choice one for parents to make on their toddler's needs and preferences. (Source 1) It is made from cow's milk and is not lactose-free, so it is not for a toddler with a diagnosed cow's milk protein allergy. (Source 1) (Source 4) Evidence · No evidence found In 2013 the European Food Safety Authority found that young-child formula has no unique role and does not bring additional value to a balanced diet for young children in the European Union. Fortified toddler milks can add iron and vitamin D to a narrow diet; they are not a requirement for a child eating well. (Source 6) Our view Buy these for a trip or a nursery bag, not for the kitchen. A toddler eating a varied diet is well served by whole cows' milk at a fraction of the price, and the case of bottles is best thought of as portable convenience. ## Questions parents ask ### What age is HiPP Growing Up Milk ready to feed for? From twelve months. HiPP offers it as an alternative to cows' milk alongside a varied diet, and asks for about 350 ml a day. ### Does a toddler need it? Not according to the European Food Safety Authority, which found in 2013 that young-child formula has no unique role and does not bring additional value to a balanced diet. Whole cows' milk is the usual drink from twelve months. A toddler milk is a convenience and a fortification, not a requirement. ### How is it different from the follow-on bottle? Water is its first ingredient rather than whey product, it has no galacto-oligosaccharides at all, and it carries less energy, less fat and less sugar per 100 ml, with more protein and calcium. ### Why does it keep for longer once opened? HiPP allows 72 hours in the fridge here, against twenty-four hours on the younger bottles in the range, and does not say why. ### Can I give it in a beaker? Yes, and HiPP assumes it: the label says to pour it into a beaker and use it within two hours, and to move a child onto a cup early, to limit how long milk sits on the teeth. ### Is it organic? Yes. The milk, cream, lactose and vegetable oils all carry the organic mark in the ingredient list, and the label carries the organic logos beside them. ### Does it have DHA? Yes, from the microalga Schizochytrium rather than from fish oil, which is why this bottle has no fish allergen to declare. There is less of it per 100 ml than in the first and follow-on bottles. ### Is it the same as the Growing Up Milk powder? No. The powder tin is its own recipe with its own values, and its label prints a legal name this bottle does not: organic follow on milk from the twelfth month onwards. Compare the two nutrition tables rather than assuming the bottle is the tin made up with water, because on every pair we have checked in this range the liquid and the powder differ somewhere. ### Where is it made? Austria, as the label says. So is the follow-on bottle; the two first milk bottles in the same range are made in Germany, which is worth knowing if country of origin matters to you. ### Can it replace cows' milk entirely? HiPP offers it as an alternative to cows' milk, not as a replacement for a varied diet. From twelve months a toddler's drink is usually whole cows' milk, and the fortified milks exist alongside it rather than instead of it. Ask your health visitor if you are unsure. ## Sources How this page was checked - Sources verified · 25 Sept 2026 - External links · opened and read 25 Sept 2026 - Product data · snapshot 2026-10-03 - Editorial review · 25 Sept 2026 - Next scheduled check · 25 Oct 2026 1.

The label on the bottle, photographed on 2 October 2026, prints less than 0.0050 mg. The table now follows the label, and the note says so. (before publication)
