Butter, salted

Salted butter is a dairy fat made by churning cream, with salt added. The figures here describe an average of butter from the UK, Ireland, Denmark, France and New Zealand. It mainly provides fat and energy. Per 100g, it contains 82g of fat, including 52g of saturated fat, and 1.8g of salt. It also provides 1060µg of vitamin A.

Vitamin A supports normal vision and immune function. Butter is concentrated in fat, so the amount used can make a substantial contribution to energy and saturated fat intake. The added salt also contributes to total salt intake. Full nutrient figures are given in the tables below.
