How to Get Butter Out of Leather

Butter stains show up on leather as a moist, darkened spot. They may be difficult to clean, depending on the softness and thickness of the leather. However, leather must be treated regularly with an oil-based product to keep the surface supple and prevent cracks from forming in the fabric, so a butter stain may be removed from some types of leather quickly and easily.
