Flavored Butter for Every Occasion
We think every time is a great time to indulge in flavored butter products, but some times call for it more than others. Caterers or country clubs planning large events can benefit from flavored butter to add a perfect punch to any meal being served. Maybe your restaurant is adding a seafood special to the menu and you want to make sure every order is flavored consistently. Try our scampi flavor or ask us which options pair best with seafood.
We’re always working to outdo ourselves and create something never tasted before. We’ll customize the perfect concoction of butter or margarine based on your needs.
Spreads, Blends & Whipped Margarine, Explained
What Is Flavored Butter Spread?
When noting the difference between a flavored butter spread and a butter blend, the important factor is that “spread” is a functional term. We create our creamy, delicious spreads by blending the perfect mix of butter and oils.
A butter blend is comprehensive and personalized to fit your goal. Whether it’s straight butter mixed with mouthwatering seasonings or a mixture of margarine, oil, butter, or even water, we work until the flavor is just right. Our blends and spreads are functional and help cut costs without sacrificing quality.
Why Use Butter Spread?
Convenience is the number one reason our customers choose butter spreads over other options. For restaurants and commercial kitchens, you have to work fast. There’s no need to remove butter from the fridge for hours in order to soften it for use. Our flavored butter spreads give you instant access to mixing your recipes or topping off a dish. If tubs of hardened butter aren’t working out for you, try a butter spread for simple, immediate use.
Why Use Butter Blends?
Butter blends are a great choice when pairing functionality with a lower budget. The option to blend other alternatives into your custom creation allows cost sensitivity without lessening your ability to create cuisine that everyone will be talking about. There are dozens of options available in place of regular butter to give you the most comprehensive personalization experience possible.
What Is Whipped Margarine?
Cut costs by opting for a delicious alternative to butter spreads. Our whipped margarine blends utilize a margarine base with other tasty and efficient oils added for great texture and lower cost. While there are slight flavor differences between a margarine base and a butter base, we work to create the exact flavor you’re searching for no matter your budget.

Start Your OrderFrequently Asked Questions
Soft, flavor-forward spreads designed for the way a working kitchen cooks. Some are all butter, some are margarine-based, and some are a blend of the two, each made to stay smooth and easy to work with across a busy line. Think garlic butter for the bread service, an herb blend for finishing, or a scampi spread that keeps every seafood plate tasting the same.
Restaurant chains and high-volume foodservice kitchens lean on them for consistent flavor without the prep, and food manufacturers use them to carry a flavor through a product line. If you’re serving the same dish across many locations, a spread keeps every plate tasting the same.
Yes. All our butter products can be frozen until ready for use. If you intend to use the butter spread sooner than later, we recommend refrigeration to keep it soft and spreadable.
Mostly how they’re made and how they behave. An all-butter spread leads with that classic flavor, a margarine-based spread stays especially soft and easy to portion for high-volume prep, and a blend brings the two together. We make all three, so the right pick comes down to your application, your menu, and how your line runs. Tell us how you’ll use it and we’ll steer you.
That’s the heart of what we do. Bring us a flavor you’re chasing and our R&D team will mix, taste, and reformulate until it’s exactly right, then make it repeatable at scale. Custom spreads and blends are made for regional and national chains and brands ordering at volume.
Usually in tubs sized for prep, and they can be made to the formats your kitchen or line uses. They store cold and reseal between uses, so a station can pull what it needs and keep moving.
They’re made with quality ingredients in a facility holding a BRC-AA rating, and created to taste the same every time you open a tub. For a kitchen that adds up to steady flavor, less scratch prep, and a spread you can put your name behind. That reliability is the value our customers keep coming back for.
