What is one cube of butter?

You've got all the answer you need by now, but I just wanted to add for those that didn't know, this is a legitimate question. I discovered as a young homemaker many years ago that a pound of butter was packaged in 4 "sticks" in the eastern part of the country and 4 "cubes" on the west coast. I filed it away with other info like "Best Foods mayonnaise in the west and Hellmans in the east."

A cube of butter is a 3 dimensional square where all surfaces are equal. And it's all made of butter.

I use one stick of softened butter (which is 1/4 lb or 1/2 cup) - it works perfectly.

buttercream. it is really good. I have made two different cakes with this. I love it and so did everyone else.

Well, it accommodates 1/4 lb rectangular prisms (standard 'sticks' of butter). But if it was an actual cube (i.e. the height, width, and depth are the same) at 1/4 lb, I don't think it would fit.

Yes it holds exactly 1 stick (1/2 cup) of butter. You dont need to add water as you use the butter You just change the water every few days with about 1/3 cup cold water to keep everything fresh and cool.

You need to break the joined cubes into two pieces. One piece is all you need.

one order is one pound or 8 ounces of butter. I usually order about 4 at a time. The unsalted sells out fairly quickly. Good luck. Hope this is helpful to you

I links is about one stick of butter plus a quarter---I am a little confused as to what this dishes supposed to do------- my understanding is that you put some water in the dish below and set the actual butter dish on top----I just haven't figured out what the difference is between a regular dish and this one----my question to you is ask them what's so special about this dish

It holds one European style 8oz butter piece (wider than American butter sticks). Could hold two 4oz sticks, but you may need to cut them.

I put about 1/3 cup. I also read thru the responses and add a few shakes of salt. When you put the stick of butter in, make sure it soft and pack it in.

They hold half a packet of butter. I usually just cut the whole pack of butter in half and then the second half is ready when you are!

It is large but I don't believe it is that large. But by the way 4 sticks of butter? Exactly how much butter do you spread on your bread, corn, muffins, potatoes etc.? One stick lasts quite a while in this house.

one - yup that is right - one single cube. I ordered 6 thinking that I was getting six dozen for the price and I got six cubes. I complained and got my money refunded. The seller was very polite

1 and 1/2 sticks will fit fine. Let the butter soften and then pack it in with a teaspoon.

Make sure the butter is very soft when you put it in the top and that the entire surface area that you are using is smeared. I just use one cube of butter. Only 2 little pieces dropped off. You will end up using less butter than before; all the flavor with less work and fewer calories.

There are different sizes but these ones are the smaller ones measuring in at approximately a 1 inch cube.

6" l X 3.25" w X 2.5" h. The interior is just big enough to contain one stick of butter. The 2 ends are 2.25" w and it gets bigger going to the center.

Approx. Vanilla wafer sized. They would be small ice cream sandwiches, which wouldn't be bad.
