ButtaNutt started in 2012 in Stellenbosch, South Africa. Founder Antoine van Heerden grew up harvesting macadamias on his family’s farm on the banks of the Sabie River. Roasted and ground, they made the creamiest, most buttery spread he had tasted, and everyone who tried it wanted more.

He sold it at a weekend market, and by 2014 he had left his master’s degree to make it full time.

Every jar is made in our own facility in Paarl, near Cape Town, which is FSSC 22000 certified. Our macadamias come from farmers and processors in Mpumalanga, our almonds from the Klein Karoo and our pecans from the banks of the Orange River.

We dry-roast the nuts, grind them and stop there. Real ingredients. Nothing unnecessary.

In 2016 ButtaNutt won a Western Cape award for best emerging agri-processing business, and our nut butters have been on shelves across South Africa. We started exporting in 2017 and arrived in the USA in October 2021.
