About this item
- THE ORIGINAL HAND PAINTED RAISED FLORAL SIGNATURE DESIGN - Decorated with a delicate raised floral pattern around the base of the crock, this timeless classic was the first Butter Bell crock to be offered by L. Tremain in 1996. The word “butter” is cast on one side, while the French word for butter – “beurre” is cast on the opposite side, in keeping with the signature pattern of L. Tremain butter crocks.
- DURABLE HIGH-QUALITY CERAMICS ENSURE LONGEVITY – The Butter Bell crocks are made from a proprietary, high-grade ceramic mixture called New Bone China. When fired at 2200 degrees, our unique glazes create a beautiful, scratch resistant finish. The crocks contain NO lead or cadmium and are backed by a 2-year limited warranty.
- THE ORIGINAL AND THE BEST FOR OVER 25 YEARS – Modeled after the original French beurrier, the Butter Bell crock by L. Tremain keeps butter fresh and spreadable for weeks without refrigeration, spoilage or odors. The two-piece design features an inverted bell-shaped lid and crock base for serving butter at the table, while protecting and storing the butter after each use.
- EASY TO USE FOR ALL TYPES OF BUTTER – It’s so simple! Pour 1/3 cup of cold water into the base of the crock, then pack the lid FIRMLY with softened butter. Replace the lid into the base and you’re ready to go! An airtight seal protects and preserves butter’s delicate flavor and freshness. Each Butter Bell crock holds one stick or cube (1/2 cup or 125 grams) of your favorite brand of butter, or even your own homemade butter.
- ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY GIFT PACKAGING – Each Butter Bell crock is securely packaged in a specially designed, environmentally friendly, four-color gift box – the perfect choice for your gift giving holidays, birthdays or special occasions.
- A MUST HAVE KITCHEN ACCESSORY – The Original Butter Bell crock is a US brand which offers unique and iconic patterns and designs to match any kitchen or tabletop décor. It has now become a household name, featured in kitchens all over the US and abroad, a testament to the Butter Bell crock’s enduring popularity and quality craftsmanship over the last quarter century.

- Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2021Model: BB-WRFSVerified PurchaseI saw someone on social media using one of these and I was, like, HOW does it keep the butter fresh?! Well, I don't know how it does, but it does. Since I received mine I have decided I simply cannot live without it - ever!
I love butter. Real butter in the stick. But, taking it out of the fridge cold and putting on your toast just doesn't work - too hard to spread. The spreadable butters in the tubs that are soft just don't taste as good as REAL butter.
Enter the Butter Ball. I admit, I was skeptical. I live where it is VERY hot - how could the butter not melt and drip? Well, it didn't. It is perfectly soft and will last for up to 3 weeks (a stick doesn't last me that long anyway). You simply soften a stick of butter by leaving it out an hour or 2, the smooth it into the Butter Ball (a stick fits to perfection). Then you fill the bottom part with exactly 1/3 cup COLD water (I change the water every other day per the instructions). And, you always have perfectly, delicious, soft butter.
I am SO unbelievably happy with this purchase. Seriously, can't live without it now!
p.s. I was told to buy this ORIGINAL one, not a knockoff. It was $25, a little pricey, but well worth it. It is even pretty - a very white ceramic - makes a nice gift. Love.

- Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2018Model: BB-WRFSVerified PurchaseThis is super cute! As a Canadian I have never kept my butter in the fridge (no, it doesn't go bad) and when I saw this item on Pinterest... I thought, hmm. Cute idea! I love it, I swear it keeps the butter even fresher and somehow tastes better. My hubby says it tastes the same... so that part is probably in my head. It does keep the butter from tinting that slightly darker yellow.
Only complaint is the size... should be twice as big, that's why I dropped a star.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2023Model: BB-WRFSVerified PurchasePurchased one of these in 2014 and over night we never bought another bucket of margarine or "spread" ever again. I didn't care for the speed with which the family went through oil based spreads, and saw this as a way to spread real butter on an English Muffin. But we never went back. Butter costs more but we use less, gone are the days of heaping blobs of the spreads and now we take a measured approach to butter and its usage. The Butter Bell has remained in use all these years. Dishwasher safe, keep the water fresh every couple days, keep it clean, soften a stick in advance, and it will be a go-to item!
- Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2024Model: BB-HPRFSVerified PurchaseUseful. Convenient. Pretty. Always wanted this one for years. Lovely to look at.

- WendophilousReviewed in the United Kingdom on September 28, 2014
5.0 out of 5 stars Works a treat!
Model: BB-WRFSVerified PurchaseWe love goats butter in our house but the stuff have a really low melting point. While that's great in winter when it's freezing cold, it's a nightmare in summer and we nearly always end up moving to the regular type during this period. This year though, even regular butter was proving hard to keep solid outside of the fridge so we thought we'd gone this a try. While it is more of a faff than a regular butter dish (and only holds about half a packet) we've been really impressed with how effective it's been. So effective that we were even able to go back to goats butter. The design is simple but looks good, and it's also very practical and well thought out - when out of the water the part holding the butter sits securely on the top of the lid, looking much like a giant egg cup. No complaints at all about this - my only comment is to ignore the filing directions as they seemed to be inaccurate. Filling just short of 2/3 full of water is the best option for us.

4.0 out of 5 stars Gut für Butterliebhaber
Model: BB-WRFSVerified PurchaseMacht genau das was es soll. Ist stabil und gut verarbeitet.
Die Butter läuft auch bei Hitze nicht dunkel an und ist vor Gerüchen geschützt.
Leider etwas klein für eine 250g Packung...
Deswegen 4 Sterne
Ich empfehle es aber weiter
