Le Creuset Butter Crock for Butter Lovers, 6 oz., Caribbean

This stoneware butter dish is both decorative and functional, seamlessly transitioning from the refrigerator to the microwave and finally to your dining table. Designed in a European style, it elegantly accommodates two sticks of butter. Historically, before the advent of refrigeration, butter remained fresh when submerged in water. Le Creuset's stoneware butter crock leverages this traditional principle, ensuring that your butter stays spreadable at room temperature.

To use the crock effectively, begin by packing the lid’s cup with approximately six ounces of butter (equivalent to about 1-1/2 sticks). Next, fill the base of the crock with cold water up to one-third of its capacity. Afterward, position the lid/cup upside down into the water; this creates an air-tight seal that preserves your butter's freshness. When you’re ready to enjoy your butter, simply lift the lid and set it securely on its wide, flat knob. For optimal performance, remember to change the water every few days.

Crafted in France, the butter crock is made from high-fired stoneware and features a non-porous enamel glaze. This finish ensures that the crock does not absorb any odors or flavors, resists staining and chipping, and is completely dishwasher-safe. The exterior of both the jar and lid is available in a range of graded colors, transitioning gracefully from dark to light shades. Furthermore, Le Creuset offers a variety of kitchen canisters and spice jars that complement this traditional French country design, all of which come in matching or coordinating colors, making them ideal for gift-giving.

In addition to its practicality and aesthetic appeal, this countertop butter crock is covered by a lifetime limited warranty against defects, ensuring its durability and reliability for years to come.
