Good value of formula and Australian made! – I have tried organic and allergy pro formula for my baby boy. After spoken to a doctor and have decided to give a go on gold formula. Read all the reviews and being recommended by one of my friend, I give a go for this Heinz formula. My baby boy has less wind in his tummy and seem like he is happy with it. I am very happy with the price and it… Read more
is Made in Australia.
The only downside is not easy to get this formula as not many places store it. Reasonable price, and made in Australia Only able to find it at chemist warehouse
Excellent – I have used this formula on both of my sons, and both sons had no problems with this at all. My first son use the the stage one formula as well and had no problems. My other son however didn't use the first stage due to reflux, but I found stage 2 was fine for him. I think that the price of this brand is excellent. Highly recommended pricing… Read more
and good quality sometimes the scoop is hard to get out when first opening the can, it is usually right down the bottom
Excellent – Really good brand that provides a good quality follow on formula for babies who have began eating. It provides all the essential vitamins and minerals that a growing baby needs which is required during the babys first year of development. This is one of the cheapest formulas around and it is available at all of the supermarkets. I would no… Read more
hessitation in recommending this for babies over 6 months old. Cheap and great availability. Easy to mix. Good sized scoop. N cons for this at all but sometimes you have to dig around for the scoop coz it is buried underneath the formula.
Excellent – This is one of the cheapest formula's on the market - but that doesn't make it nasty! My son loved it and I loved the price. I have heard people question why it is so cheap and apparently it is because Heinz is such a large company and make money from other products they can afford to manufacture their formula for less, unlike other companies… Read more
who rely solely on the profits from their formula's. Also, you don't have to travel to 3 different specialty stores looking for it, is is available at most supermarkets and large chains like Big W. Cannot find any fault with this product at all. inexpensive and available almost everywhere
Excellent – I breastfeed my child for 9 months until he no longer wanted me. I was hesitant to use formula but needed something to feed him. I first used S26 gold as it was the most expensive and therefore I figured the best for my child. It didn’t agree with my child so I thought I’d give this a go and I haven’t looked back. My mother who is SO anti… Read more
formula even converted to this! She likes it because it has all the omega’s, vitamins and probotics in it and is simple for her to use too with the lip and the 50mls to one scoop ratio. I really like this formula, it is easy to mix, one scoop per fifty mls of water so is easy to make up half bottles. It doesn’t bubble up like some other formulas do. It is economically priced and I buy it from Big W as I have found they sell it the cheapest but is available almost everywhere. My son has had no issues with this formula. I especially like the container as it has a lip that you can level the scoop on but is still easy to get down the bottom of the tin.
Excellent – this formula was a god send, little girl had been so sick from other formula, i wish i had tried it from birth! i will def be using it for my next bub, This is the only formula( other than soy) my daughter could drink without it giving her diahoria or constipation. It smells nice, doesnt bubble and mixes in easy as, even in cold water! Very good price too, espesh from chemist warehouse nothing, this is a great all round formula milk!
Excellent – great product - worked well for us, was also a great price compared to other formulas at the time we were using it - it also comes in sachets I noticed now which is great for those that want to try before they buy a whole tin. this was the only formula that worked for our first son - he didnt suffer from constipation or the opposite as he did with other formulas none - except at the time it was hard to find.
Good – A good substitute for breast milk. I found this product to be afforable, easy to make up and it didn't have that terrible smell that some formulas have. My bub enjoys it, finds it easy to digest and hasn't caused any tummy trouble (unlike some formulas that cause constipation). Being gold it contains all the extra vitamins and minerals. Inexpensive, easy to make up.
Excellent value for money formula – An affordable baby formula for 6 months onwards. Readily available at all major supermarkets and often cheap at wholesale chemists. It dissolves well, and baby drinks it all up, and has thrived on it. I have been converted, formally a fan of Nan. Great scoop that does not need putting together and excellent lip on tip to level scoop. Also, is… Read more
great you only need 4 scoops to 200 mils, not twice as many like others where its easy to lose count. Highly recommended by happy mum of 4 !! Affordable, has all the proper nutrients, no problems at all with baby liking or digesting it.
What's with the Fishy Taste? – My 11month old had been breastfed so decided to try some bottle feeding. Had luck with the s26 ready made formula in prima size carton so thought i'd buy a formula tin because cost would be cheaper. bought nurture, gave it to him and he stuck it in his mouth and screwed his little face up then refused to drink it. tried a few more nights but no.… Read more
it has a fish taste and it is disgusting. i just didnt understand why it tastes so bad. still dont get it. obv. i wish i hadnt bought it, waste of money. the giraffe picture on the tin is cute. tastes like fish.
Bad – We've always used Heinz baby products and while all my babies have been breastfed to one year old, we've weaned them onto formula and the Heinz Follow-on (with the red lid) has always been our favourite. This is the first time we tried the Heinz Gold follow-on and my baby flatly rejected it. She has drunk other formula's no problem but wouldn't… Read more
touch this. When we tried it ourselves we realised it tastes and smells like fish! On inspecting the can we saw it has Tuna Oil as one of it's ingredients. Not sure if this is a new ingredient or not but it seems to be the culprit for the unusual taste. Obviously the ingredient is the component that delivers the Omega 3. I'm guessing it may have replaced another less fishy smelling oil and that is why the previous reviewers have not commented on this? A bit disappointing as I now have a full tin of formula that we've hardly touched. I'm still a big fan of Heinz and will probably try their toddler milk next when my baby is completely weaned off the breast. Australian made, reasonable price, easy to find in most supermarkets, tin design makes easy for accurate measurement My daughter won't drink it
Good – I have previously avoided changing brands of formula however when I found Heinz Nurture Gold on a fantastic special I decided to give them a go. My daughter loves the taste, so I am happy. My child likes the taste opening of the tin is smaller than other brands
Good – a great substitute for breast milk that is affordable and easy to make. definately a product ide buy again for my children once they reach 6mths of age easy to make, simple instructions to follow, readily available made by a reputable company.suitable for babies 6mths upwards and is nutritionally balanced, a great substitute for breast milk if you… Read more
require.cost is reasonable and there isnt a residue left in bottles once baby has drunk. can be made up to 24hrs in advance and keeps the same nutritional quality, easy to open lid and comes with a plastic lids once the metal seal has been removed. not much, at times you have to hunt for the little scoop as it gets hidden in the formula

Know better, choose better.
Good – A good formula as you'd expect from Heinz. Mixes well and the can has a lip that you can use to level scoop - great for when you only have one hand. The powder is not as sticky as S26 and the price is better too! I've used this as S26 and it is hard to know which is better. This one is less fiddly to use but I suspect S26 has better ingredients in… Read more
it for the baby. Good taste according to my baby.
Has a lip that makes it easy to level scoop without knife.
Good price.
Excellent – Great overall product. Nothing to dislike. It's great value, mixes like a dream (never any gluggy bits in the bottom of the bottle) and the kids are super healthy. Mixes easily. Excellent value. Bubs like it.
Good – We used the Heinz Nurture 1 Gold and after bub turned 6 months decided to stick with the brand as she likes it. She is currently using this formula. It mixes well and you use the same amount as the Nurture 1 Gold product so its easy to remember how much to mix up - good for dads! Bub still likes the taste and is growing well. She is putting on a… Read more
healthy amount of weight. She doesn't tend to drink quite as much as the tin suggests - it says 200ml 3-4 times a day as well as solids about 3 times a day. She might drink 3-4 bottles but doesn't have that much in solids. She also finds it easier to only drink half a bottle at a time. The bottles keep well in the fridge though. I don't recommend keeping them out on the bench on a hot day as they do go off quickly Good product - well priced and bub likes the taste Not much - can be hard to find in some chemists and not in many supermarkets
Excellent – i had to wean my son off breastmilk at 6 months so my Dr recommended S26 but my son would only drink 10mls, after wasting two tins i decided to try nurture 2 gold and he took to it straight away. its a fantastic product. i highly recommend it well priced, my son liked the taste.
OK – I had to find a formula quickly and the chemist assitant recommended that i try the Heinz Nurture Gold. I found that although my daughter had no problem drinking it and was also gaining alot weight on it, it just didnt sit quite well with her sensitive skin. I kept her on it as the formula was cheaper than others thinking that the ezcema would go… Read more
away with antibiotic cream but it didnt. As soon as i took her off the Nuture Gold and put her on another formula her ezcema actually disappered. Available eveywhere and the cheapest around. This forumla actually aggrevated and made my daughters ezcema worse.
OK – My 9month old has no problems taking to this formula, he has not had any reactions. A good formula that has all the vitamins your child needs. Doesnt seem to be as heavy as other formulas and doesnt have that unpleasant smell that some do. Cheap and easily available at most shops, easy to mix and prepare,
Excellent – Fantastic product, No Constipation or reflux. Cheapest on the market. Keeps bubs full and still has a great creamy taste, I''ll never go back to any other product. Thankyou Heinz!!! easy to find, in every shop! 4 scoops per bottle, Not 8! Great Price! None, only that it is so cheap which makes people think it's not as good as other products, but to bad for them!!!LOL
Excellent – I tried many formulas after weaning my 9 month old daughter from the breast. She wouldn't take any, until I tried this one. She took to it straight away and never had any tummy problems that others gave her. I like that it is cheap but still contains all the required nutrients for a healthy baby plus more. I just hope my 4 month old will take this… Read more
as easy as my eldest did,lol. We will see in a couple of months. Will try this one first. And doesn't smell as gross as other leading brands do Cheap and available almost everywhere
Excellent – I went on to using this formula for my baby after starting with the Nurture Gold Starter. I have found all Heinz products to be of high quality. My baby has never had any wind, constipation, diarrohea or spilling problems while being on this formula, unlike other formulas I have used in the past that have upset baby's tummy. This formula also… Read more · 1
has added iron which is especialy important after the age of six months. I definately recommend this product after trying many others over the last ten years of feeding babies. Availability and is a satisfying formula and is made in New Zealand. Not always on special
Excellent – Great product, well priced, readlily available. Easy to make up. My toddler was happy on this formula and had no adverse reactions of any sort. He liked it and thrived and was very happy to have it as part of his diet. Great price. Baby loved it and had not gripes with it.
Excellent – I moved to this formula after my little one started getting very constipated on S-26 and I haven't looked back!! Found it great. Good price for the product and my bub seems to really like it. It still has the rich texture that other good formula's have to keep bub full. They must have recently changed the make up of the formula as I now notice… Read more
that when you make up a bottle, it becomes very frothy after being shaken. This doesn't seem to have any affect on its taste though as bub still sucks it down quickly.
