It tastes great! I don't bake so I don't care about that. I do use it on potatoes, and veggies and my grand daughter just loves it too and she it 10 years old. It is YUMMY!!!

I bought every 3-pack carton they had left-over a year ago- and am now down to my last one. Where can it be found in the San Diego area? At Costco it was 3 cartons for about $5.50 total. Very, very good product. After discovering (and loving) Balade Light Butter @ Costco in San Diego, I bought it for years until, suddenly, Costco was no longer stocking it.

I was so surprised to see a european-looking container that I had to pick it up and check it out. I have butter at home, so the purchase will have to wait, but this thread has been interesting to me.

The light butter is lower in fat content and therefore would not compare to "the best butters in france." The whole point of your higher-quality European butter is that it has more fat in it, not less. Anyone seeking a better quality butter would do better to seek out a plugra-style European butter. Ms. Tassel--you're not by any chance part of a marketing campaign designed to use internet comment boards as a medium by which to insert paid opinions under the ruse of being actual word-of-mouth recommendations, are you?

The Land O' Lake or other American butters are not even close to European butter's delicious taste. About 2years ago, 99cent only store sold Corman Light Butter imported from Germany! I was delighted to find an imported product from Europe and since it was light pure butter, I just had to try it. After tasting the Corman butter (Balade in US), boy, you wouldn't believe this, I went to all three 99cent only stores closest to my home and bought all the butters. I shared some to my friends and family members and the rest I froze them. Yes, my freezer was packed of this butter! I'm down to my last two blocks of Corman butter :( I'm in search of where I can buy more and came across this web-page, and had to to make a remark. I will try to contact 99cent only store to see if they can get more from the distributor.

I am a chef who teaches healthy cooking. Balade is always incorporated into my lessons. When I am in PA, I buy Balade at Trader Joe's...no problem. I am trying to find it in West Palm Beach, Florida since I am there for the winter. Does anyone know where I can purchase it? I have called Sam's Club, Costco and Albertsons, with no avail. I would appreciate any help to locate it since LOL light butter just doesn't cut it for me. THANKS SOOO MUCH! I think Balade Light butter is WONDERFUL!!! I am a chef who teaches healthy cooking.

It's now on E-Bay at about $10 per 8 ounce tub - which is an outrageous price I will NOT pay.
