What it is

Sweet cream butter is a dairy product made by churning pasteurized cream. The churning process separates the butterfat from the buttermilk. It has a rich, creamy flavor and a smooth texture.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use sweet cream butter as a source of fat and flavor in baked goods and other foods. Its high fat content contributes to tenderness, richness, and a desirable mouthfeel. It is commonly found in cookies, cakes, pastries, and sauces.

Health notes

Sweet cream butter is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of saturated fat, and dietary guidelines recommend limiting saturated fat intake. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated butter and its components. High intake of saturated fat is associated with increased LDL cholesterol levels, a risk factor for heart disease.

Allergen info

Sweet cream butter is derived from milk, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
