The cost of real butter can get very expensive. That is why I always try to grab some extra whenever I can find it for a low price.
Freezing butter is easy and can be a great way to save money while giving your family healthy genuine butter for the average price of margarine.
If you are making homemade butter to freeze from heavy cream you found on sale you will need to really work to ensure all buttermilk is drained from the butter and wrap in waxed paper like store-bought butter.
To freeze butter you want to add an extra layer to protect the butter from freezer burn or from absorbing odors and flavors from your freezer.
The best option for this is to vacuum seal your butter for storage but a quality freezer bag can help add an extra layer of protection without needing anything special.
