Berry Puppy - Holle Organic Fruit Puree Pouch

Holle Berry Puppy Organic Fruit Puree Pouch, apple and peach with forest fruits, 100 g, from 8 months

Berry Puppy is a Holle organic fruit puree pouch for babies from 8 months. It holds 100 g of smooth puree made from five fruits: apple 70 percent, peach 12 percent, strawberry 10 percent, blueberry 5 percent and raspberry 3 percent. The fruit is Demeter quality and the pouch carries the EU Organic seal. There is no added sugar, no salt and no additive of any kind, and the screw cap reseals.

This is the berry one, and the 8-month age on it is the thing to notice first. Strawberry, blueberry and raspberry together make up 18 percent of the pouch. Berries are usually introduced later than apple and pear, which is why this pouch sits two months further up the range than the apple-and-pear ones, and why it is not a pouch to start weaning on.

Apple still does most of the work at 70 percent, so the puree is not sharp. Peach at 12 percent softens it further and adds the slightly perfumed note that stone fruit brings. The three berries are the top notes rather than the body: enough to colour the puree deep red and to taste clearly, not enough to make it tart.

Holle calls the berry component forest fruits, which is the European way of describing a strawberry, blueberry and raspberry mix. In this pouch the apple, peach and strawberry are declared as coming from biodynamic farming and the blueberry and raspberry from organic farming, which is a normal split when a smaller ingredient is harder to source biodynamically.

As a European baby food pouch this is a snack rather than a meal: something for between meals, for taking out of the house, or for the sweet end of a meal. It contains no cereal and no dairy, so it is gluten-free and lactose-free. At eight months most babies are managing lumpier textures, so a smooth pouch like this has usually become the convenient option rather than the main one.

Why this one says 8 months and the others say 6

The age on a Holle pouch tracks its ingredients, and berries are the reason this one is dated later. Strawberry and raspberry in particular are fruits most weaning guidance puts after the first months of solids, once a baby has met the simpler fruits singly and taken them well. Holle dates this pouch from 8 months and that is the age shown on this product.

In practice that makes Berry Puppy a second-phase pouch. If you are at the beginning of weaning, the apple, pear and banana pouches are where to start. Once those are routine and your baby has met berries on their own, this one becomes the obvious step up: five fruits, three of them new flavours, in a puree that is still smooth enough not to be a texture challenge at the same time.

It is worth introducing the berries separately first if they are new. Three new fruits arriving in the same spoonful is the opposite of how fruits are usually introduced, because if something disagrees you cannot tell which one it was. A few days apart each, then this pouch, is the straightforward order.

How to serve Berry Puppy

What each fruit is doing in this pouch

Five fruits in one pouch is worth reading properly, because the three smallest are the ones that set the age on the pack.

Percentages and the farming designations are reproduced from the ingredient declaration printed on this pouch. Berries together are 18 percent of the pouch, which is why it is dated from 8 months rather than 6.

What one 100 g pouch gives you

This listing is one 100 g pouch with a resealable screw cap, in recyclable packaging.

We do not give a figure for how many pouches a baby gets through in a month. Holle publishes no feeding quantity for the pouches and no recommended number per day or per week, and the honest answer depends on how much milk and how much family food a particular baby is taking. Treat a pouch as a snack and let the rest of the diet set the number.

The 100 g net contents figure is the one shown for this product. No number of pouches per day, per week or per month is stated, because no such guidance is published for this product.
