Wooden Lamb Butter Mold
A traditional butter mold used in Poland around Easter is a charming and symbolic kitchen tool, often crafted from wood, designed to shape butter into the form of a lamb. This custom is rooted in Polish Easter traditions, where the lamb is a symbol of Christ’s resurrection and a representation of peace and renewal.
Dimensions of the mold:
▶️ Length: 12.5 cm / 4.9 inch
▶️ Width: 4.3 cm / 1.7 inch
▶️ Height: 6.5 cm / 2.5 inch
🌿 The mold itself has two hinged halves, which come together to form a perfect lamb shape. Once the butter is softened, it is pressed into the mold, carefully filling every crevice to capture the detailed features of the lamb’s head, body, and ears. After a short time in the refrigerator or freezer to firm up the butter, the mold is gently opened, revealing the beautifully shaped lamb ready to be placed on the Easter table.
🐑 This tradition of molding butter into a lamb is deeply rooted in Polish culture, and the butter lamb, or “baranek wielkanocny,” is often blessed during Easter Sunday Mass and served as a centerpiece of the festive meal. The practice brings both a sense of joy and reverence to the holiday, linking food preparation with religious celebration and family gathering.
✨ Easy to Use: The mold is easy to use – just place the butter inside and store in the fridge. After a while, you can enjoy a charming lamb on your table.
