The ingredients used in our baby food range come from bio-dynamic or organic agriculture.

Analysis for Acrylamide in Holle Baby Food Range

During the structure of our quality controls, the Holle Demeter Baby grain porridge range and the Holle Organic Infant Formula 1 and Holle Organic Follow-On Formula 2 were analysed for acrylamide. In all products, acrylamide could not be found. The results lie below the limit of evidence for 10 micrograms/kg.

The analysis was conducted by a recognised institute in Berlin, which had developed a valid method of analysing for proof of acrylamide.

The unique Demeter Quality

Whenever possible, our baby foods are made of Demeter raw goods.

Demeter is the name of the Greek fertility goddess and the protected trademark for products which have been grown following organic, bio-dynamic agricultural methods.

Only recognised products which meet the strict and continuing quality criteria of certified, organic and bio-dynamic farming, can carry the 'Demeter' label. Beyond the criteria of organic farming, the Demeter farmer makes allowances for the addition of specific types of unique plants and animals.

The Demeter farmer views a farm as a live organism of natural cycles. Food for the animals originates predominantly from own paddocks and fields. A part of every Demeter farm is owning and caring for the livestock.

Their dung is composted and is mixed with special organic ingredients such as medicinal herbs. This is then sprayed onto the fields. Ingredients develop energy consisting of strength and vitality, similar to that of homeopathic medicine. This is how the ground is supported and looked after. The growth of seeds is a result of the biological rhythm of the particular plant.

Independent research findings show that the ground lives and becomes more fertile from year to year. This is unique to organic farming.

The ripe fruit contains a maximum amount of natural essential energy and vitality. This is how naturally grown food provides growth and strength, which is especially important for infants and small children.
