Glue stick butter spreader will change the way you spread butter forever

Jul 09, 2023

Have you been betrayed time and time again by your overly hard, non-spreadable, so-called ‘spreadable’ butter? Felt the pain as you tear holes in your bread desperately trying to spread that ever-so-salty Lurpak?

Or maybe you have been taunted by the image of a hot cross bun oozing melting butter that you so desperately try to re-create, but fail miserably as the butter refuses to be anything to your bun but a hard greasy lump.

Now though it seems one girl, known on Facebook as EllyAwesome, may have found the way out of all our butter woes with an incredibly easy-to-make, wonderful creation.

Ladies and gentlemen, please put your hands together for the Ultimate Butter Spreader…

What you’ll need:

How to make the UBS:

Step one: Take the glue stick holder out of the glue stick, removing any glue with a knife. Any remainders can be cleaned with a cotton ear bud.

Step two: Clean the glue stick with hot water, and then put the glue stick holder back into the glue stick.

Step three: Cut some butter, enough to fill the glue stick, and melt in microwave for 30-40 seconds.

Step four: Once melted, stir and pour into the glue stick.

Step five: Pop the lid on and refrigerate for two hours.

Step six: Enjoy spreading your spreadable butter!
