Know before you buy
The butter is packed into the lid, which sits inside the base filled with a small amount of water. This creates an airtight seal that blocks oxygen, preventing the butter from spoiling or absorbing odors while keeping it soft and spreadable at room temperature.
This dish has a capacity of 4.0 ounces, which is equivalent to one standard stick of butter.
Yes, Revol uses high-quality, non-porous porcelain that is specifically engineered to be shock-resistant and durable. It is designed to withstand the rigors of daily kitchen use, including transitions between the freezer, microwave, and oven.
When using softened butter, it will adhere firmly to the inside of the lid. As long as you pack the butter in well and ensure the water level in the base is correct, it will stay securely in place.
Yes, the porcelain construction is fully dishwasher safe, making cleanup simple and efficient.
