UNSALTED BUTTER

General Description

Unsalted butter is produced from fresh sweet cream which has been pasteurised,  churned  and worked in continuous

butter making machines, to produce a premium quality butter.  Unsalted Butter is uniform in composition, yellow in

colour with a clean nutty flavour typical of butterfat.

Product Application

Unsalted butter is traditionally used as an ingredient in cooking and baking applications where additional salt is not

required or undesirable.  Unsalted butter imparts a natural and unique flavour benefit, improves moisture retention and

retards staling.  Unsalted butter may also be used as a flavour carrier or simply as a heat transfer medium in cooking

applications.
