Dry Buttermilk - West U.S.

Released on October 16, 2025

In the West, dry buttermilk prices moved 1 cent lower at the top end of the 
range and the bottom end of the mostly price series. The bottom end of the 
range and top end of the mostly price series are unchanged. Domestic demand is 
lighter. Demand from international buyers is steady. Butter churns are building 
stock for Q4 holiday demands and ice cream production is seasonally lighter, 
which is making plenty of liquid and condensed buttermilk available to dry. Dry 
buttermilk production schedules vary from steady to stronger. Although some 
manufacturers report snug inventories, distributors and traders convey spot 
loads are available.
