Ceramic French Butter Keeper - Keep Butter Fresh & Spreadable
Product Description
Elevate your kitchen with the BakeCraft Tools Ceramic French Butter Keeper – the traditional French method for keeping butter fresh, soft, and spreadable at room temperature for weeks. This beautiful white ceramic butter crock uses a simple water seal to create an airtight barrier that blocks air, odors, light, and moisture while preventing spoilage.
Simply pack softened butter into the bell lid, add a small amount of cool water to the base, and invert – the water forms a natural seal that keeps butter perfectly fresh and ready to spread on toast, bagels, or baked goods anytime. No more hard, cold butter from the fridge!
