# Buddha Butter Dishes The Buddha Butter Dish is a Zen Kitchen Accessory By M | Published 2014-05-05 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/butter-dish References: [foodiggity](http://www.foodiggity.com/the-buddha-butter-dish-will-enlighten-your-fridge/) & [foodiggity](http://www.foodiggity.com/shop/buddha-butter-dish/) Having a butter dish is a convenient way to keep your butter room temperature and ready for some serious spreading action. This [Buddha](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mindsight-breathing-buddha)-inspired butter dish stores your butter while channeling positive vibes. The Buddha butter dish is made from high-quality white ceramic and comes in a quirky serene design. The bottom of the butter dish is a shallow rectangle that holds an average size slab of butter. The lid for the dish features a reclining Buddha sculpture that shows the voluptuous monk smiling. His peaceful appearance will make you feel super [Zen](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/desktop-zen-garden) in the morning when you wake up grumpy, hungry and ready for some toast before you rush out the door. Perhaps the plumpness of the Buddha on the lid will help inspire you to spread a little less butter on your toast. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.6/10 - Popularity: 1% | Activity: 9% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Zen Kitchen Accessories:** Designers can create more Buddha-inspired kitchen accessories to cater to the increasing demand for Zen-themed home decor. - **Quirky Tableware:** Quirky, unique tableware such as the Buddha butter dishes can cater to consumers looking for unconventional and conversation-starting pieces. - **Ceramic Kitchenware:** Ceramic kitchenware is becoming more popular as consumers look for durable and sustainable options that also add an element of sophistication to their kitchen. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Home Decor:** Home decor companies can incorporate Zen-inspired pieces such as the Buddha butter dishes into their product offerings to cater to the growing trend of incorporating mindfulness and wellness into home design. - **Tableware:** Tableware companies can create more quirky and unconventional pieces such as the Buddha butter dishes to cater to consumers looking for unique and memorable dining experiences. - **Ceramics:** Ceramic manufacturers can create more kitchenware products such as the Buddha butter dishes to meet the increasing demand for sustainable and durable kitchenware that also adds a touch of elegance to the kitchen. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Digitized Meditation Bowls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zenbowl.md) - [Brown Butter Cubes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buji-brown-butter.md) - [Pagoda-Shaped Tea Jars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tea-jars.md) - [THC-Infused Clarified Butters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/infused-ghee-butter.md) - [Enlightenment-Inspired Ceramic Lamp](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/namaste-lamp.md) - [Butter-Themed Speaker Boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soundlink-plus.md) - [THC-Infused Cookie Butters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/infused-cookie-butter.md) - [Modular Butter-Inspired Sofas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/butter-sofa.md) - [Mindfulness Breathing Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mindsight-breathing-buddha.md)
