A Brief History of Cookie Cake

Allow us to introduce you to Cookie Cake’s celebrity parents: Wedding Cake and Animal Cookies—now you understand where it got its exceptionally sweet taste!

This sativa-dominant offspring was cross-conceived via GreenSeal’s Nursery program, a Health Canada-approved growing space dedicated to discovering and developing the “next big cultivars” in cannabis genetics. Quite the endorsement, eh?

GreenSeal is well known for its consistent, ongoing hunt for outstanding phenotypes, which enables them to achieve the full genetic potential of their cultivars. The company only produces flowers in small, perpetually-harvested batches.

The dark green buds present in the Cookie Cake strain are also THC-packed, with levels ranging from 28% to 34% of the psychoactive ingredient—percentages that aren’t easily found in any variety. Its CBD comes in at less than 1%. Cookie Cake’s high potency can also be attributed to its 2% to 5% terpene content.

Overall, this is an exceptionally sweet and creamy celebrity cross with some of the best qualities you’re looking for in a strain—its parents really shine through!

Cookie Cake Strain Profile

Let’s put this strain under a microscope—here’s what you need to know about its appearance, aroma, flavours, and terpenes!

Appearance:

One look at this strain’s frosty nugs and it pretty much screams glazed doughnut. Its dark green nugs are appropriately “caked” with glittering trichomes. Clearly whoever named it knew what they were doing.

Aroma and Flavours:

Its name sure doesn’t lie: this cannabis strain is packed with a sweet and creamy cake flavour and aroma. Some consumers say they found some mild hints of cinnamon in this deliciously creamy sativa-filled strain.

Terpene Profile:

Have you ever wondered what gives plants their smell, taste, and sometimes, colours? That’s the work of terpenes, which are naturally occurring compounds and aromatic oils. Here’s a breakdown of the terpenes present:

• Caryophyllene (22%)
• Myrcene (10%)
• Limonene (9%)
• Germacrene B (8%)
• Humulene (8%)
• Other minor terpenes (43%)

Strain Effects

If you’re looking to feel energetic, creative, focused, and inspired, then the Cookie Cake strain might just be your new favourite. Offering a smooth smoke that burns clean and results in a strong and fast hit, reviewers reported feeling a euphoric and uplifting head high from this sativa-dominant strain.

Depending on your level of tolerance and experience with sativa, GreenSeal’s Cookie Cake could be a daytime or nighttime session. Anyone trying the strain for the first time, we recommend in the evening after work. Known for being extremely potent, this cake is best for those with high tolerance levels. You know the rule: start low and go slow.

How Cookie Cake Is Grown

GreenSeal’s Cookie Cake is grown in the southwest Ontario region.

Using an indoor growing method, they leverage a soil substitute as the medium. The grow room lighting type it relies on is LED, while the drying method is rack and tray. This strain is also machine-trimmed and hand groomed.

If you’re thinking about growing Cookie Cake by yourself, take note that it can be cultivated indoors or outdoors. You can expect the plant to have tall vertical growth and an average flowering time of nine to 10 weeks. The yield amount is generally categorized as medium, making it one you could grow yourself.

A Similar Strain Worth Trying

If you’ve got quite the sweet tooth, you’re probably on the lookout for more strains with a confectionery twist. This is where Ice Cream Cake comes into the picture. With its parents being Wedding Cake and Gelato #33, it’s basically Cookie Cake’s half-sibling.

Your taste buds will get a real kick out of its similar creamy flavour profile with hints of vanilla and sugary dough. It’s a great alternative for when you’re looking for something different that packs a THC punch near the 30% range.

Rather than making you feel energized, this strain is known to induce relaxation and sleepiness. Now you’ve got go-to dessert-like strains for every mood!
