Subject: Clarification on the Use of Toddler Formula in the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP)
As the popularity increases among parents to provide toddler formula to children ages one to three years, child care institutions may have questions on the allowable use and creditability of these formulas in the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP). Toddler formulas come in powder form and ready-to-drink cartons, not to be confused with infant formula for children from birth to 12 months. This memorandum provides clarification regarding the use of toddler formula in the CACFP.
