Feeling buttery? Then “butter-fy” yourself with a new Facebook application brought to you by the Midwest Dairy Association!
This app brings a popular state fair tradition – butter sculpting – to life. Across the Midwest, state fairs are a time-honored event combining competition, great food, live music and an overall good time. Even if you can’t attend this ceremonious closure to summer fun, create your own virtual experience through the Butter-Fy Yourself application.
Butter-fy Yourself allows you to turn your profile picture into a butter personality and even add your buttery self to a virtual sharable postcard. Select from one of six butter personalities, including Dairy Princess, Butter Hippie, Butter Cow, Butter Liberty, Butter Bouffant and Butter Up and begin to sculpt yourself.
Customize your sculpture on a postcard from one of nine Midwest states, including Arkansas, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, North Dakota, Oklahoma and South Dakota. Share your beautiful buttery self with the world by posting your butter personality to your wall, saving to your album and inviting your friends to do the same.
One of the most popular attractions at many state fairs are the famous butter sculptures. From Minnesota to Missouri, fair-goers line up to see the unique sculptures. Some fairs stick with a traditional dairy cow, while others introduce a new sculpture every year. In fact, even Elvis has made an appearance in butter.
