3 Star Great Taste Award Winner 2018
Can you remember what Butter used to taste like? Step back in time with South Downs butter: made with cream that is specially aged for three days. This traditionally churned butter is washed with ice cold water before it is extruded and packed by hand. South Downs Butter can be frozen. Fresh, it has a shelf life of up to 6 weeks. A Great Taste Award winner for seven years in a row, this is a butter to make Granny proud!
GOLD - 2014 Great Taste Awards - Judges comments: “Attractive pale, creamy colour with cross section striations indicating the churn. No free running water droplets. Gentle, fresh, creamy aroma. The initial flavour is of a salt hit, then a creamy feel spreads across the palate. Persistent fresh feel with a good length of flavour, and the salinity is well balanced by the creaminess. ‘I would happily eat this on its own’.”
Why have we changed the size and shape of our rolls?
The cost of butter production rose by 47% during 2022. This means that despite us absorbing a lot of this increase, the retail price in shops was getting very high, so we decided a little bit of Shrinkflation was in order. Also, we have received many requests to reduce the diameter and lengthen the roll to replicate a typical French roll. This means that with our new shape, it is easy to slice the butter into small discs.
Storage: Eat within 1 week of opening. Keep refrigerated below 5°C.
Suitable for Vegetarians and home freezing.

Ordering was easy. Delivery was held up by a couple of days for an unknown reason but the cheeses and butter were in perfect condition because of the excellent packaging. We are looking forward to having some in the coming days.

Great product as always. Unfortunately, APC delivered it to the wrong address. Fortunately, the person on receipt (not even a neighbour) managed to contact me and delivered my parcel to me the same day.

Good flavour just how butter should taste.

I treated us to some of this for a self-catering holiday in the Autumn and am now buying it regularly. A complete hit – tastes as butter should and looks beautiful too, if you can describe butter in the round like this! I used it to make smoked salmon scrambled eggs on Christmas morning and it was the best scrambled egg dish I had made for ages. Creamy, light, delicious – and definitely rather indulgent.
