    Great Alternative to Butter

    The Becel bricks is a great alternative to butter for baking. The packaging is similar to a brick of butter. The measurement markings on the outside are great and helpful for following a recipe. The brick is also a good option instead of using Becel margarine. It's part of the Becel family so it's a healthy alternative to butter. The only slight downside... the baked items don't quite taste as creamy as if they were baked using butter. However, a great option if you have dietary restrictions or health concerns.

    A product that surprised me!

    I picked up this product as something to try, especially for my husband who cannot tolerate any dairy product. I used 2 TBSP of the unsalted Becel Plant Based Bricks to caramelize some wild leeks and I had to re-read to package to ensure it was dairy-free as when it hit the pan, it sure smelled and looked like butter! I love the easy to use measurements on the sticks, and the convenient stick sizes (typically as butter substitutes we use margarine). Really great product that I can't wait to use for all my baking recipes!

    Very happy!

    I am not a stranger to Becel, but this was the first time I tried #BecelPlantBasedBricks or any brick-type butter alternative. My normal usage for butter is in baking and cooking, so I made my family's favorite recipe to see what if any differences existed: chocolate chip cookies.

    I was very pleasantly surprised. Overall I found that the Plant-Based Brick performed very well. It was much easier to bring to a softened state, and extremely easier to beat into sugar by hand. When baking, I only noticed a slight tendency for the cookies to spread a bit more, and I did not need to adjust the temperature or baking time at all. The cookies came out just right. There was a very slight taste difference. I felt the cookies may taste a little saltier (even though I used the unsalted version), the rest of the family didn't really agree but couldn't agree on what the difference might be. Cookies have been consumed just as fast as with the original recipe though!

    I will definitely use Plant-Based Bricks again, and recommend them! #ButterLoversLoveIt and I agree!

    Good Butter Substitute

    I received this for free as part of the Family Rated Product Review Club. As others have said, it was easy to find in a grocery store and is located near butter & margarine on the store shelf. Although butter can be delicious, I find myself pursuing a more plant-based diet for health and environmental reasons these days. I have baked and cooked with both butter and with other plant-based butter alternatives like Earth Balance and vegan Becel.

    Price-wise, good news! It seems to be cost a bit less than brand name butter. I found the packaging attractive, and liked the measurements on the package. When used for frying, ingredients like eggs and vegetables did not stick to the pan. And it’s healthier too – 25% less saturated fat than butter.

    The plant-based brick creamed nicely with sugar when I made family-fave chocolate chip cookies. Like butter, it’s solid when refrigerated and softens nicely when not. Family consensus: they love the cookies!

    J’ai tout aimé de ce produit

    J’ai reçu ce produit pour tester gratuitement de ChickAdvisor
    #gotitforfree

    J’ai littéralement tout aimé de ce produit. J’achète de la margarine Becel d’habitude, mais en contenant de plastique. Ce format est plus facilement disposable dans mon réfrigérateur et l’emballage est de loin meilleur pour l’environnement.

    Ce produit est super pratique pour faire la cuisson de gâteau ou biscuit. C’est un format parfait. La texture est aussi parfaite.

    Je compte bien en racheter!

    Good for baking and other uses

    I do a lot of baking. I'm doing even more lately. I got it for free from Family Rated but I did notice the listed price when I picked it up, it was what I would have expected. It's very easy to use, just cut off the desired amount. I liked the taste, I doesn't taste like butter but it's not supposed to. It's a vegan and gluten free product. Dairy free. The unsalted is especially good for baking or for sodium reduced diets.

    Becel Plant Based Bricks-Unsalted

    Are you looking for a healthier alternative to butter when making your baked goods? Becel Plant Based Unsalted Bricks have all the flavour and texture of butter. My kids could not tell the difference between butter vs Plant Based alternative when we baked together. Becel Plant Based bricks are a great non-dairy alternative to butter.

    Great Butter Alternative

    I had the opportunity to try Becel Plant-Based Bricks (unsalted) courtesy of Family Rated. I first used the product to make Rice Krispy squares. One advantage that I noticed immediately was the fact that the product is soft right out of the fridge. No more having to take out the butter in advance when you want to bake! I haven't used Becel to cook with before but it seemed to have the same results as using butter, including the taste. The brick format makes it easy to measure out exact amounts for a recipe. This product has fewer calories and grams of fat compared to a pound of butter, and the price point is about the same. I would certainly consider purchasing this product for my baking needs in future.

    Amazing for Baking!

    I had the chance to try a Becel unsalted plant based brick recently courtesy of Family Rated. It's ideal if you are vegan or have a dairy allergy. I've been using it on toast, on veggies, anywhere you'd use butter. It spreads easily and has a good flavour (although a salted version is probably better for toast!) Today I used it to make banana bread and it works perfectly for baking, blending nicely and completely taking the place of butter with no issues.

    If you don't use dairy products like me or you'd like to cut back, give this a try (it comes in salted as well).
