The product is a solid emulsion of water in oil, pale yellow, creamy and homogenous with no streakiness or evident free moisture. Manufactured from fresh pasteurized cream derived from whole cow milk, chilled and aged prior to churning and salting on a continuous butter-maker to give a finished product of not less than 82% fat and a salt content not exceeding 2.0%.
Characteristics:
Fresh pasteurized cream derived from pure cow's milk.
Light yellow in color.
Free from particles with a smooth fine grain solid structure.
Clear and mild flavor typical of pure milk fat, free from sour, bitter and rancid taints.
