Wedding Cake is undoubtedly one of the most popular strains out there. After 2018’s Cannabis Wedding Expo held in Lafayette, it wouldn’t be long before the Wedding Cake strain becomes a core part of any post-wedding party. Of course, in some places, this strain is already a hit! On another note, during the Cannabis Wedding Expo in 2018, cannabis connoisseurs were taught how to tastefully incorporate weed into their wedding plans.
This strain is a slightly Indica-dominant hybrid, with an approximate composition of 60% Indica and 40% Sativa. Its genetics is still a matter of dispute, with some people claiming that the strain is a cross between Cherry Pie and Girl Scout Cookies, while others say it’s actually the love child of Triangle Kush and Animal Mints. In fact, it even has the nickname “Triangle Mints #23,” while in Canada, many users address it as “Pink Cookies.”
Regardless of its lineage, what matters most is the birth has graced the world of weed with its extremely high potency, averaging at about 27% THC.
Aroma
Overall, the Wedding Cake aroma has a unique blend of doughy, earthy, and sweet notes. The initial scent is earthy. But once you get past that, you’ll be surprised with a sweet aroma. On its fading notes, some of its phenotypes may give out a sour twist.
Flavor
This is where the Wedding Cake strain boggles your mind. If this strain was your partner, you’d feel cheated after your first toke. A blend of soil and sour flavors will overwhelm your taste buds, something that you don’t expect from its namesake dessert. Hold on though, because before long, you’ll be treated with sugary and doughy notes. And this is when you regain your faith in your weed buddy!
Appearance
Appearance-wise, the Wedding Cake strain remains true to its name with pinkish-red hues, resembling a sugar cookie. It has dense, teardrop-shaped nugs with heavy trichomes covering the sides and tops of the calyxes.
Wedding Cake Strain Effects
With a THC level that averages at about 27%, you know that you’re in for a ride when you smoke a Wedding Cake doobie! Owing to its Indica make-up, this strain will cause a euphoric and relaxing high. Unfortunately, it’s not a party-starter. Instead, you can smoke this cannabis once the party ends, just before you hit the sack!
Initially, you’ll feel a mildly psychedelic high that’s often creative and social. The buzz might not necessarily bring down your energy levels, thanks to its 40% Sativa content. But smoking more than one joint will surely put you in a relaxed and slightly sedated mode.
The Wedding Cake strain is also popular among medical cannabis users for dealing with depression, anxiety, chronic pain, arthritis, and managing symptoms of neurological conditions.
