This guide is your one-stop haunt for learning, baking, and enjoying cannabis-infused Halloween treats. (Reminder: these products aren’t FDA-approved to treat or cure anything—they’re just for good times and great flavor.)
Understanding Edibles
Cannabis edibles are foods infused with THC or CBD, offering a tasty alternative for anyone who prefers to snack rather than smoke.
THC vs. CBD
THC Edibles: Psychoactive, euphoric, and perfect for parties or creativity.
CBD Edibles: Non-psychoactive, soothing, and great for stress relief or recovery.
Dosing 101
Everyone reacts differently to edibles. Factors like body weight, metabolism, and tolerance matter. Start small—5 to 10 mg THC is a good baseline—and wait before eating more. The phrase “I don’t feel anything yet” has ended more good nights than any ghost ever could.
The Science of Strong Edibles
The key to potency is decarboxylation—heating cannabis to activate THC.
-
Temperature: 220°F–250°F
-
Time: 30–45 minutes
-
Goal: Transform THCA into THC for a full-strength high
No decarb means no high, so don’t skip this crucial step.
Essential Infusion Ingredients
Cannabutter: The classic foundation for brownies and cookies.
Canna-Milk: Great for seasonal drinks or baked goods.
Tinctures: Easy to measure and perfect for beverages.
Canna-Olive Oil: Excellent for savory snacks, salads, and gourmet flair.
