Butter Buds Low Fat Dried Butter Granules 2g x 40 Sachets

Ordered these after being recommended by a fellow slimming world member, good product and nice sprinkled on vegetables, makes an omelette extra tasty, with a bit of imagination it makes perfectly good garlic bread. It does taste a bit more like cheese than butter but still think it’s a great product and makes dull food that little bit more interesting! This said, don’t even think about sprinkling it on your toast ...was pleasantly surprised to find its not packed full of nasty ingredients too

They are not equal to butter, but tastes more towards the cheese side of flavour. However, putting half a packet into mashed potatoes makes such a difference. If anything, use less than you would expect and then add more if needed. They are very expensive for what they are, but they do add that missing level of flavour when you are on a restricted diet!

These are very good, although I agree with another poster about having a vaguely cheesy tang to them !! I use them on courgetti, jacket potatoes, carrots and it does give a buttery taste. I'm a butter addict, and whilst these are never going to taste as good as butter, they do taste similar, and not unpleasant! If it saves me a heap of calories I'll keep using them!

I really like this product on jacket potatoes or hot vegetables to give it that buttery taste (if not the feel, but you can’t have everything, ha!) this is a repeat purchase after use a few years ago, but I am slightly disappointed that it didn’t come in a container as pictured, just sachets in a bag so I had to find something to put them in after specifically choosing this one for a container...

Bought these when I was on a diet, they were pretty good but not enough butter for me to melt on my jacket spuds

I have to add a few sachets to get the taste I like for mashed potatoes but I do like the result.

If you're trying to lose weight and have given up butter, these are a fantastic replacement. I've been doing Slimming World for a while now and stopped eating baked potatoes and mash as I didn't enjoy them without butter, but these butter buds really do the job. There are a couple of reviews that say they have a cheesy smell, and they do to a certain extent, but I think normal butter does too. I was a bit sceptical before ordering them, but so glad I did!

These are tasty and perfect if you're on a calorie-controlled diet! A really good alternative to butter!
