Modern Butter Box

What a gorgeous looking container just for butter! It's very well made too. However, it is SO SMALL! I didn't realize it when I purchased. I was going to use it to store all butter sticks at one time, but I guess this is only made for the sticks that have been opened. It fits about 2 whole sticks. I'm keeping it anyway because it really is so nice and honestly, it can be used for something else if it doesn't work out in the long run!

Love this butterbox. Finally a butter keeper to hold special butters, or sticks. Looks great on the counter, easy to stack in fridge when necessary. Highly recommend!

I have struggled to find a butter dish/keeper that I can put in the fridge to store butter without too much air getting in, AND that is nice enough to put on the table for most occasions. I like the smaller, stoneware French butter keeper I got through Food52 some years ago, but tend to use it more for entertaining--it doesn't hold enough if you buy the half-pound butter size, and you have to remember to keep the water fresh. Also, it isn't really intended to be kept in the fridge, which is necessary for those of us who don't eat enough butter on a day to day basis to leave out on the counter. This modern melamine version does the job. It is easy to clean, and seems to keep the butter fresh, looks nice.
