Love this! Such a fun and unique gift idea for a friend!
How long does the butter last in the fridge? 🙂 Looks great by the way.
Hi Danae! It will last as long as any other butter does (2 months). It can be frozen for 6-9 months. After a while the honey might separate from the butter but a quick stir will blend it together again. Hope that helps! Thanks! ~KIM
