Weihenstephan 'Die Extrazarte' is a premium spreadable fat produced by Molkerei Weihenstephan, a major German dairy company. The product is a blend of mildly soured butter and rapeseed oil, designed to remain spreadable even when cold from the refrigerator. The manufacturing primarily takes place in Freising, Bavaria, which is the historical home of the brand.

The brand's history is deeply intertwined with the Weihenstephan Hill in Freising, famous for hosting the world's oldest brewery. While the brewery remains state-owned by the Free State of Bavaria, the dairy division was privatized and eventually acquired by the Theo Müller Group in 2000. Today, it operates as a key premium brand within Müller's extensive international portfolio. The raw milk used is typically sourced from regional Bavarian farms, maintaining the brand's local heritage despite its large-scale corporate ownership.
