What We Make
Scalable Custom Flavors for Foodservice & Manufacturers
For more than 65 years, Butterball® Farms has been the trusted partner behind some of the food industry’s most successful flavor launches. We’ve helped food manufacturers, national and regional restaurant chains, meal kit companies, and foodservice providers turn their first spark of an idea into craveable, commercial-ready products. Whether you need a partner to bring a new concept to life and launch it in the marketplace or scale an existing product when demand outpaces your capacity, we’re here to help you succeed.
We’re not your commodity producer. Every flavor we create is custom-crafted, made-to-order, and built to set your brand apart with taste experiences your customers can’t find anywhere else.
Let Butterball Farms help you take your inspiration all the way to commercialization!
You Dream It, We Scale It
Already Have a Recipe?
Bring it to us, and we’ll turn it into a craveworthy, commercial-ready flavor. Our team takes your specialty butter or sauce recipe and turns it into a scalable, production-ready product.
Starting from Scratch?
We’ve got you. Our flavor experts and R&D team will work with you to create a custom, specialty flavored butter, blend, sauce, or more that fits your brand, your customers, and your volume goals.
No recipe? No problem—we’ll develop a custom flavor from the ground up.
Partner with Us
We craft and commercialize specialty fresh, frozen, and refrigerated solutions, including butters, blends, cream cheeses, sauces, and more. View all of the products we can make and use them as part of your brand’s recipes, or roll them out as direct-to-market products.
State-of-the-Art Production
Our extensive production capabilities and state-of-the-art facility allow us to be agile and quick-to-market to meet the unique needs of our customers. That means we can flex with your needs, no matter if you’re starting small, performing a regional test, rolling out a limited-time offer, or ramping up for a national rollout.
Our low minimum order sizes and extensive production capabilities allow us to do what many manufacturers can’t: produce, package, and ship smaller volumes of your custom butter shapes or specialty sauces with precision and care. When you’re ready to scale nationally, we’re already there.
Direct Access to R&D
We offer quick sample development turnaround, and you’ll work directly with our R&D team to bring your flavor vision to life. We’ll customize your flavor solution and find ways to help you scale the way you want to—no order is too big or too small for these flavor scientists.
Custom Packaging for Your Products
We offer a variety of packaging solutions designed to fit both back-of-house prep and front-of-house service:
- Bulk formats: Bag-in-box, pails, totes, drums/barrels
- Pre-portioned: Tubs, portion-controlled cups, rolls, medallions, dollops, individually wrapped
Need branding or ingredient information on your packaging? We can print that directly on each individually wrapped portion or work with you, depending on packaging choice, to ensure full transparency and on-brand presentation.
*Please note: We do not currently offer pouches, glass jars, or glass bottles.
