Over 8,000 shoppers gave this Prepworks butter container a five-star rating. “Of all the butter dishes I’ve tried, this is the very best,” said one Amazon reviewer. “It is a high-quality, durable plastic, not cheap junk. The best part is the seal.”
The base is large enough to fit both West Coast and East Coast butter. It features measurement markings along the sides, so you can cut off a tablespoon or two at a glance. The tall, domed lid won’t smush the butter. Plus, it’s transparent, so you always know how much butter is left.

Butter crocks (sometimes called butter bells) are French-style dishes that keep butter soft and spreadable. No need to store it in the fridge; these dishes stay out on the countertop. Sweejar’s classic porcelain crock holds up to 1 ½ sticks of butter at a time. It’s available in black, green, navy, and light blue.
Food Huggers Butter Hugger

If you don’t want a big butter dish taking up space in your fridge, try a butter hugger instead. This square silicone cap pops onto the cut end of butter to keep the rest of the stick fresh. If you only use a tablespoon or two at a time, this compact solution will prolong the life of your butter stick. Food Hugger offers silicone storage solutions for fruits and vegetables, too.
