i went to buy Darigold butter since it was on sale. the only two they carry is unsalted and sweet cream. i believe all butter is sweet cream, but i wanted salted butter. sweet cream butter be the same as salted butter?

thnx

My understanding is that unless it says "unsalted" on the packaging, it IS salted.

I agree with BlakesCakes!

A good way to tell is if you open the package (go ahead, noone's looking) if the butter is wrapped in paper, its salted. If its wrapped in foil its unsalted. The salt preserves the butter so unsalted has to be wrapped in the foil to preserve it. (Thanks Alton Brown!)

I just bought unsalted butter to do a wedding cake and it was wrapped in paper the same as regular butter.

Yes, Wal-MArt brand wraps in the same paper for both kinds also....
