Top 10 Dessert Weed Strains

From dank desserts to frozen dessert strains, exotic cannabis that’s sweet, fruity, and even creamy wins big. Discover 10 dessert cannabis strains for your next best-selling product!

Cannabis consumers are increasingly sophisticated with tastes ranging from in-your-face skunk and fuel to… dessert? You read that right! 

Exotic cannabis cultivars that are sweet, fruity, and even creamy are wildly popular. They get top-shelf status at dispensaries, consumers like them for daily use AND special occasions, and cultivators keep their noses on the lookout for a whiff of these complex aromas.

So, it’s high time we give you our Top 10 List of Dessert Cannabis Strains!

This is a list of drool-worthy cultivars that taste and smell like patisserie-inspired confections, indulgent baked goods, and the creamiest cold “gelato.” They just happen to have a delicate dash of dank here and there, and several fall under trending Cannabis Gas Categories!

Looking for a sweet, dessert-forward cultivar to infuse into your next vape, pre-roll, or edible? Keep reading and dive into the delicious world of cannabis strains that actually taste like dessert!

1. Blueberry Muffin

For those days when you need an extra sweet treat at breakfast, Blueberry Muffin seriously hits the spot. Fortunately, the Blueberry Muffin cannabis strain actually lives up to its namesake.

EXOTIC FACTOR: 100%

LOUD FACTOR: 65%

Parents Purple Panty Dropper and Blueberry passed down some of their best traits, giving Blueberry Muffin aromatic notes of sweet blueberries, herbs, fresh earth, and a barely-there creamy finish. If your customers love flavors reminiscent of sweet baked goods with well-balanced effects, they’ll love the Blueberry Muffin terpene profile.

2. Cherry Pie

Much like your grandmother’s famous cherry pie, this strain is bursting with sweet and sour cherry flavor. This Cherry Pie is just significantly more dank than your granny’s.

GAS FACTOR: 78%

LOUD FACTOR: 89%

This cross between Granddaddy Purple and an F1 Durban Poison has won multiple cannabis cups, and its offspring includes such popular cultivars as Forbidden Fruit and Wedding Cake. Looking for big cherry flavors with a healthy dose of dank and a dash of tartness? Look no further.

3. Cherry Zlushie

Descended from flavor-forward cultivars Ice Cream Cake, Grape Zkittles, and Gelato, this is another cherry-forward strain worth drooling over. Plus, its Gelato genetics align it with today’s trending Candy Gas aromas!

GAS FACTOR: 78%

LOUD FACTOR: 89%

Cherry Zlushie has a uniquely floral aroma with unexpected additions of stone fruit like nectarines and sweet cherries. Add a VERY healthy shot of straight gas and you’ll understand why this cultivar is so unforgettable. Want a sweet treat that starts off mentally relaxing and physically stimulating before sending you to the couch for an afternoon nap? Get yourself a Cherry Zlushie ASAP.

4. Creme Brulee

It’s creamy, sweet, and that caramelized layer of sugar atop rich, indulgent custard is scrumptiously sophisticated. Fortunately, the Creme Brulee strain of the same name is equally delicious.

GAS FACTOR: 76%

LOUD FACTOR: 82%

As a complex cross between OG Kush, Platinum Kush, and Girl Scout Cookies, Creme Brulee brings an entirely new level of dank to dessert strains with its creamy notes of vanilla and nuts (Psst! Those OG Kush genetics also land it squarely in the OG Gas category!). When your customers want their desserts to be smooth and deliciously dank, this is what they’re craving.

5. Gelatti

As a cross between gassy, berry-forward Bacio Gelato and cookie-like Biscotti, it’s no wonder Gelatti packs sweet aromas and even more delicious effects. The name references its genetics, but it’s also an indicator of Gelatti’s unique flavor and aroma… to an extent. 

GAS FACTOR: 78%

LOUD FACTOR: 86%

Notes of sweet and sour berries mingle with earthy cookies, but it’s the uplifting mint and potent blast of fuel that take this cultivar to new heights. If your customers love the cultivars in Gelatti’s immediate family, there’s a VERY good chance they’ll love this dessert-like profile as well.

6. Hot Cakes

Whether it’s a lazy Sunday morning or an indulgent “breakfast for dinner” kind of occasion, we highly recommend a hearty serving of Hot Cakes!

GAS FACTOR: 70%

LOUD FACTOR: 80%

There may not be ribbons of maple syrup, but these cakes are packing a sweet and fruity citrus and strawberry flavor with underlying hints of nutty vanilla and refreshing earth. Just don’t expect to get much done afterward. Want to infuse your products with something euphoric and delicious? Reach for Hot Cakes. Just don’t operate heavy machinery afterward (we’re only kind of joking). 

7. Ice Cream Cake

We’ve mentioned this beloved cultivar already, so it should be no surprise that Ice Cream Cake gets its own shout out. Plus, if you’re already a fan of Wedding Cake and Bacio Gelato, you’re going to love their sweet descendant. 

GAS FACTOR: 86%

LOUD FACTOR: 90%

Ice Cream Cake is all things creamy. Imagine a rich vanilla cake with a warm nuttiness, soft cream cheese icing, a hint of floral, and just a touch of citrus to top it off. A delicate dank note will have you thinking you’ve purchased it from an elegant patisserie instead of your local dispensary. It’s iconic, delectable, and it’s not hard to see why it has such an avid fan base.

8. Kush Cake

The name alone combines two of our favorite things, but that’s not a shock considering its origins include Cherry Pie and Girl Scout Cookies. If you’re a fan of the Kush family, you’ll LOVE this terpene profile. 

GAS FACTOR: 100%

LOUD FACTOR: 91%

Kush Cake takes all the best parts of the Kush family and bakes them into a vanilla cake that’s sweet, gassy, and has a surprisingly creamy balance of pine and vanilla. Plus, the intense gassiness with its sweet, cakey qualities can appeal to fans of both Candy Gas AND OG Gas aromas. We’ve never met anyone who could turn down a slice of this cake.

9. Lemon Cherry Gelato

You’re likely not surprised to see award-winning Lemon Cherry Gelato on this list. This top-shelf strain is heir to a dank, dessert-fueled lineage that includes Sunset Sherbet, Girl Scout Cookies, and a third unknown cultivar. 

GAS FACTOR: 91%

LOUD FACTOR: 77%

Its drool-worthy aroma is decadent with swirling notes of bright citrus, sweet berries, and a finish that’s perfectly gassy. The fruity elements are sweet, yes, but they add a bright, sour quality that transforms the decadence of this cultivar into something seriously dank and reminiscent of Candy Gas. Plus, if you’re into relaxing effects with a delightful hit of euphoria, this profile is right up your alley. 

10. London Pound Cake

London Pound Cake has all the berry goodness of its Sunset Sherbert genetics, and the transformative nature of its flavor and aroma keeps people coming back for seconds… and thirds.

EXOTIC FACTOR: 98%

LOUD FACTOR: 86%

The sweet berry aromas hit you first followed by bright notes of citrus. Then earthy elements reminiscent of nuts or dough set in, followed by a delectably sour aftertaste. If you’ve ever doubted whether a cannabis strain actually smells or tastes like its name, London Pound Cake doesn’t disappoint.
