Budder is a concentrate with a soft, creamy consistency – similar to butter, hence the name. It is easy to pick up with a dab tool and is considered one of the most pleasant consistencies for dabbing.

How is Budder made?

Budder is created when an extract is "whipped" during post-processing – similar to whipping butter. This causes the molecules to arrange themselves into a uniform, creamy mass. Temperature and humidity control how soft the final product becomes.

What makes Budder popular?

  • Easy to handle – doesn't stick like sticky concentrates.
  • Good dispensability – can be portioned cleanly.
  • Aromatic – often retains many terpenes.

Budder in comparison

Unlike glass-hard Shatter or crumbly Crumble, Budder is soft and spreadable. This makes it particularly beginner-friendly – nothing splinters, nothing crumbles away. For many, Budder is the ideal middle ground between handling and taste.
