market. In this study, Lactobacillus helveticus was used for cream
fermentation prior to production of butter. The modification done
on cream could affect the fat content of butter which in turn affects
the physicochemical properties of the product (Rønholt,
Kirkensgaard, Pedersen, Mortensen, & Knudsen, 2012). Interactions
between the chemical components in butter that, in turn, affects
the physical properties of the product can be observed by studying
its physicochemical properties. The microbiological and physicochemical
characteristics of fermented-butter were compared to
non-fermented butter to study the feasibility of the product. The
possible effect of fermentation towards microbiological, physicochemical
properties and consistency of the product is discussed.
