I find that slicing the butter lengthwise in half, makes it much quicker to defrost.0

Great for the 34p lurpak butter glitch.However, I was wondering about buying up a job lot and freezing it. (Particularly as butter prices don't seem to be going down at all and are only likely to increase in price). I know there are threads on here that say you can freeze butter but I was wondering if anyone who has actually done this can tell me what the pitfalls are and if the defrosted product is in anyway different to the fresh?
No problem whatsoever - butter freezes fine, I have done it for years because a standard pack is far more than I use before it goes off so I always freeze half of it. The only pitfall I can think of is that you need to get it out of the freezer well before you need it. Defrosting a lump of butter quickly is really difficult!0
