Review: I appreciate soft butter; here in the Midwest our summers are awfully hot & the butter has to be kept in the refrigerator all the time. However, with the L. Tremain Butter Bell Crock, this is not necessary any longer. This Butter Bell Crock is the best thing I've purchased since white bread! The lid holds one stick of butter & is placed upside down into the crock; one would think the butter would fall out but it doesn't! There is 1/3 cup cold water placed into the bottom of the crock & this is changed each day. Nothing could be more simpler. This particular brand of butter crock is the best due to what the crock is made of. I plan on giving these as gifts for any occasion in 2014; I suggest you purchase one also - you won't be disappointed!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How is this any better than keeping butter out in a butter dish?   We do that without any issues or having to spatula butter into a container.**
A: Butter can be left on the counter in any covered butter dish with good results.  I used a clear glass covered butter dish prior to buying my Butter Bell, but I felt the lid was slippery and it wasn't as nice looking.  Also, I think the water in the Butter Bell keeps the butter fresher and it has a better texture.

**Q: Is this true white or off white?  It looks off white?**
A: True white.  I think there is another that is off white (called linen?).

**Q: What are the dimensions of this crock? Hard to tell from the picture. Thanks**
A: Full crock is about 4 1/2" tall with a 4" diameter.  I place 1/4 cup ( 1stick) of butter in mine.  May I please also add that this is the best thing that has ever happened to butter...don't forget to change the water!

**Q: I don't see measurements . . . what size is this?**
A: I don't have exact measurements, but it's roughly the size of a large coffee mug. Hope this gives you an idea!
