I saw there’s all healthy natural nut butter stall by Hunters Kitchenette at Takashimaya Basement 2 Singapore, for the time being only until 2nd of March 2014. They have different flavors from cashew, almond, chocolate hazelnut, macadamia and pistachio too.

I did buy their almond and cashew butter. Both tasted great, consider it as my good fat intake. If I am not mistaken, the price of macadamia and pistachio butter are around SGD16.

Wow. I am counting my blessings. Almond butter is available in the states as much as peanut butter; just not as many brands. Wish I could ship it over!

Dont think people will be very receptive to almond butter, cause the word almond in Asia associates with white food.. so its kinda mismatched when it comes to color.
