Hyper-real in its initial impression of a just-picked dandelion flower stemmy, pollen-filled and reminiscent of warm, blue-sky summer days cue crickets.

But what about the butter? Instead of this being an overtly rich gourmand composition, butteriness is realized as the vibrantly verdant opening melts into a radiant, golden drydown. On some, milky creaminess emerges. On others, a cozy warmth glows.

squinting at the sky, pale green, the creamy butyricy
of sweat on skin, the creamy butyricy of butter

Dandelion Butter, is inspired by a centuries-old folk game commonly played by school children. A plucked dandelion is held under someones chin as theyre asked Do you
like butter?.

If the bloom casts a yellow glow upon their chin, it means they like butter. In some versions of the game, the head of the flower is rubbed onto the participants chin, leaving a bright yellow streak that indicates an obvious love of butter. Its an illogical question and an unnatural gesture raising your face to the sun as yourchin is studied with intimate intensity.Taking from this rural amusement tradition,Dandelion Butter is bright, playful,and imbued with navet.
