The Peanut Butter Pump – What Happened to the Dispenser?
When you buy through links on this page, I may earn a small commission. It costs you nothing extra. How this works.
If peanut butter is your thing, you might want to take a look at this new product launch on Indiegogo. The Peanut Butter Pump is a convenient way to make evenly spread peanut butter sandwiches for a whole army of people, all without using a knife and creating a buttery mess.
What is the Peanut Butter Pump?
Created by Andrew Scherer, this is a handy, spill-free dispenser you can attach to most 40 ounce peanut butter jars.
You simply remove the lid, and then screw on the Peanut Butter Pump. The pump is suited for heavy duty usage and the special ribbon nozzle makes it convenient to dispense the PB on your sandwich. There’s also a stream-style nozzle for when you want to have your peanut butter as part of a smoothie or snack.
Don’t worry about any peanut butter going to waste. The Peanut Butter Pump design scrapes every inch of peanut butter out of your jar.

Can you buy the Peanut Butter Pump?
Update (October 2026): not yet, as far as I can find. The Indiegogo campaign started in February 2019 and raised about $166,000 from more than 4,400 backers. The first pumps were due in January 2020, but the date kept slipping. Andrew Scherer also pitched it on Shark Tank (season 11), where he didn’t get a deal.
In 2023 the jar-top design was dropped for prefilled pouches with a separate pump. In January 2025, Food Republic reported that a working prototype existed but that the pump was not sold anywhere. I found no newer news and no Amazon listing.
This is a good example of why backing a campaign isn’t the same as buying from a shop: delivery dates slip, and some projects never ship.
