Step in butter sculpting

Step 1: Purchase enough 100 percent butter to create the sculpture you have in mind.

Step 2: Create a wood or wire frame and attach it to a base if you plan on making a large butter carving or smaller carvings can be made of solid.

Step 3: Soak the butter in ice water for roughly 10 minutes. Numb your hands in ice water to prevent the butter from melting when you're working with it.

Step 4: Remove butter from ice water and knead together to remove air bubbles.

Step 5: Attach butter to the base if you made one. If not, simply shape the butter into a vague representation of whatever final product you're envisioning.

Step 6: Use the tip of a sharp knife to carefully carve out sections of unwanted butter. If you make a mistake, firmly re-attach a piece of butter over the error and try again.
Step 7: Place in the freezer once complete to keep your butter carving from melting.
