About Kush Cake

A cross of Cherry Pie and GSC, Kush Cake is a cross-bred hybrid. You may also see it sold as Double Kush Cake. The effects people mention most are feeling relaxed, euphoric and aroused.

THC and potency

Public lab results give a good picture of its strength: 426 flower samples tested between 2020 and 2023 came in at a median of 24.7% total THC (the middle half ranged from 21.3% to 27.9%). CBD is typically negligible (under 0.5%). That puts it at the strong end of the market, so newer consumers should start low. Potency varies by grower and batch, so always check the label.

Aroma, flavour and terpenes

In lab tests its dominant terpene is limonene, followed by caryophyllene and myrcene. Limonene is known for bright citrus-peel freshness, while caryophyllene adds black pepper and warm spice. Total terpene content measured a median of 1.7%. Consumers most often describe the flavour as vanilla, mint and sweet.

Reported effects

Beyond feeling relaxed, reviewers also mention feeling sleepy and focused. Some consumers say they reach for it when dealing with anxiety, stress and depression. The side effects mentioned most are dry eyes, headaches and paranoia. These are personal reports, not medical advice.
