The density of butter is 911 g/L (15 + 1 ⁄ 4 oz/US pt). [3] It generally has a pale yellow color but varies from deep yellow to nearly white. Its natural, unmodified color is dependent on the source animal's feed and genetics, but the commercial manufacturing process sometimes alters this with food colorings like annatto [4] or carotene.
