5 Creative Marijuana Edibles for any Cannabis Lover

By: Sativa Baker | August 6th, 2020 (updated 2023) | Product Guide

Marijuana-infused Edibles are becoming very popular with consumers and producers of these edibles are getting very creative in how they make them. There are a wide variety out there and they come in all shapes and sizes. This can be overwhelming for shoppers who are new to the experience, so don’t be shy to ask your Budtender at your local pot shop any questions that you might have. Most consumers will experience more of a body high with edibles so if you are new to marijuana, we recommend starting off with a few milligrams. Effects can be delayed by 30 min – 2 hours and last up to 8 to 10 hours, so it is important to start low and go slow!

Why does it take so long to get high?? According to High Times, THC is processed differently when it’s digested. Once you ingest THC and it starts its journey through your digestive system and the edible is broken down to its base components (THC, sugars, carbs) and the THC is absorbed by the intestines and transported to the liver. Once in the liver, THC is transformed from THC to 11-Hydroxy-THC. 11-Hydroxy-THC is the longer lasting and more powerful metabolic cousin of 9-Delta-THC, which is what you experience when you smoke cannabis. So be patient my friends!! It may take longer for the effects but they are likely to last longer.

Benefits of edibles versus other forms of consumption

1. Super Discreet – You can easily pop some gummies and no one would know you were consuming marijuana, until of course you start an hour long giggle fest. There are various THC:CBD ratios that can get you the benefit of multiple cannabinoids or CBD-only options which are a good choice for folks who want the benefit of cannabis without the high.

2. Smoke Free – Smoking can be rough on the lungs and can leave you and the room smelling like reefer. This can limit the ability to consume in most places because everyone around you will immediately know what you are up to. Edibles typically don’t smell like marijuana and are usually easy on the digestion and very enjoyable to consume.

3. Great tasting – Sometimes with tinctures and smoke, the taste can be a little funky. Producers have done an amazing job at making edibles taste like there is no marijuana in them. From lemonades and sodas to chocolates to sour candy, it is so fun to try all the different yummy varieties.
