butter paper

Baking pan liner

Butter paper is thin, grease-resistant paper used to wrap butter and other fatty foods.

In some regions, the term refers to parchment paper or waxed paper used in baking to prevent sticking: Line the pan with butter paper before pouring in the batter.

The usage varies by country—what Americans call parchment paper, others may call butter paper.
