Flora Food Group has introduced Red Barn Creamery Butter — a U.S. Grade AA butter made from 100% American cream and batch-churned in Kansas. This offering contains an 84% butterfat content that ranks among the highest available on the market.
Flora Food Group makes its Red Barn Creamery Butter available in salted and unsalted eight-ounce blocks that each equal one cup or two standard sticks. The batch-churned method takes additional time and care, resulting in a smooth texture and deep flavor that performs consistently across searing, melting, baking, whipping, and spreading applications. The process will also appeal to individuals who value artisanal production methods. The higher fat percentage in Red Barn Creamery Butter, on the other hand, translates directly to flakier pie crusts, richer cookies, creamier sauces, and better browning when searing meats.
