I call it Corn Mate
I got tired of holding the butter in my hand so I came up with this.
I made it for the 4 oz butter sticks (32 x 33 x 120 mm) that are the standard size. My first version was the entire length of the butter stick, but found out that my fingers were not long enough and the first design looked like a butter Popsicle! Ya remember the "push-ups" this final design is shorter for half a stick of butter.
Recommend ABS or PETG so it survives the dishwasher's 170 F (76 c) temp. Because of the ridges, I recommend that ALL food items be sprayed and sealed with this silicon spray and then give proper time to thoroughly dry. (give it a day for safety)

One can is enough to do .... well I have not yet went through a can yet. I guess that you can get about 100 decent sized prints in one can.
100% infill and
.4mm nozzle with .32mm layer height gave good results. Yes the bottom is a tad ragged but it's just for butter. Enjoy!
