Butter Buds® Non-Dairy 32X

Who doesn’t love butter’s rich taste and creamy character? Now you can deliver that same great taste and texture to butter-lovers who don’t want to eat dairy, with our new ingredient: Butter Buds® Non-Dairy 32X.

This non-dairy version of Butter Buds® 32X offers up the same complete, well-rounded butter flavor with medium-strong salted butter middle notes, but without the dairy allergen.

There’s nothing quite like being able to deliver the rich, creamy flavors of butter and cream in a vegan option, without the risk of exposure to dairy allergens. Like the other members of the 32X family, this non-dairy ingredient holds nothing back in terms of flavor; it just skips the dairy content.

Butter Buds® AB (Anchor Butter)


Wondering if it’s possible to make butter even better? We did! Our new Butter Buds® Anchor Butter concentrate is even richer and more buttery than the rest of our ButterBuds® family of ingredients.

Consumers love the rich creamy quality of butter, especially in the premium butter produced by grass-fed or pasture-raised cows. Our Anchor Butter offers a butter profile similar to those premium butters. Made with real butterfat, it imparts a richer, fresh butter note with a higher fat flavor profile.

Perfect for baked goods and any other application where rich, fresh butter notes are required, Anchor Butter makes all the difference. Request a sample and see how much richer—and buttery-er—your products can be!
