Methods involve packaging butter sticks by adding unformed butter to an extruder, where the extruder shapes the butter into defined dimensions, cutting the extruded butter at a desired length to form butter sticks, cooling the butter sticks, and flow-wrapping the cooled butter sticks within an adhesive film. Systems for packaging butter sticks involve an extruder, a cutting device, a cooling device and a flow-wrapping device, where the extruder shapes unformed butter into defined dimensions, the cutting device slices the extruded butter into butter sticks, the cooling device increases a firmness level of the butter sticks, and the flow-wrapping device packages the butter sticks within a sealed, adhesive film. The extruder, the cutting device, the cooling device and the flow-wrapping device may be connected.
