A butter rolling device for applying butter/margarine to a selected surface of an item of food is disclosed. The butter rolling device (10) comprises a reservoir (12) for receiving and melting butter/margarine, the reservoir (12) defining an upper opening (28) for accessing the reservoir (12). The device (10) further comprises a rolling drum (16) rotatably mounted in the reservoir (12), the drum (16) comprising cylindrical walls (30) defining an exterior annular rolling surface (32) for being coated with butter/margarine and for rotatably engaging the selected surface of the item of food whereby butter/margarine is transferred to such selected surface. Means are also provided for rotatably mounting the rolling drum (16) in the reservoir (12).
