Wyke Farms, a fourth-generation, internationally acclaimed producer of England's finest Cheddar since 1861, is proud to introduce Ivy’s Reserve Salted Farmhouse Butter into the U.S., exclusively available in Whole Foods Market. Crafted with fresh cream, this award-winning butter is made in Great Britain and gently churned to create a smooth, rich, and clean flavor profile. It is available in 8-ounce blocks for an SRP of $6.99.
Ivy’s Reserve Salted Farmhouse Butter is round and indulgent, with just a pinch of salt to enhance its natural richness. This butter is perfect for toast and makes a special choice for baking, topping on vegetable dishes, and incorporating into recipes. It is based on a century-old, award-winning recipe created by Ivy Clothier, the namesake of Ivy’s Reserve Butter and matriarch of Wyke Farms. This family recipe, perfected by Ivy in the 1930s, continues to be used today.
Ivy’s Reserve Salted Farmhouse Butter is a deliciously creamy, carbon-neutral, and environmentally conscious product made using 100% self-generated renewable energy generated on the farm. Ivy used to say, ‘If you look after nature, then it will look after you,’ and she held a deep respect for the environment and a love of the countryside. The special recipe yields a unique smoothness and clean finish using fresh cream, traditionally aged before being brined and gently churned.
“We’re excited to bring Ivy’s Reserve Salted Farmhouse Butter to the U.S., exclusively in Whole Foods Market. My Grandmother Ivy was a formidable woman known for her tireless hard work, community spirit, and warmth. A food technologist ahead of her time, Ivy laid the principles and standards by which we operate to this day,” said Richard Clothier, managing director of Wyke Farms and Ivy’s grandson. “In her lifetime, Ivy rarely left the village in Somerset, let alone traveled on a plane, and now the butter that bears her name will be found in fridges and on tables all over the US. I think that would make her incredibly proud.”
