What are chocolate edibles?
Chocolate edibles are chocolate bars and candies infused with cannabis.
Cannabis chocolates, along with other cocoa-forward marijuana edibles, are popular for their rich and sweet flavors and discreet and convenient forms.
Types of chocolate edibles
There are a variety of milk, dark, and white chocolate edibles available. Some of the most common cannabis chocolates available include:
Full-size bars
Mini bars
Truffles
Discs
Bites
Caramel-filled
Chocolate-covered coffee beans
Chocolate-covered cannabis gummies
You can find many more chocolate edibles at dispensaries near you on Weedmaps.
How chocolate edibles are made
Two key ingredients are needed to make cannabis chocolates: high-quality chocolate and a cannabis extract or concentrate (usually distillate, isolate, or ice water hash).
The first step in making chocolate edibles is to melt the chocolate so the decarbed cannabis extract can be easily mixed into it. Then, the extract is infused into the melted chocolate, and the mixture is homogenized to ensure even distribution.
The THC-infused chocolate is poured into molds that are calibrated for precise dosing, and then cooled.
Once solidified, the chocolates are lab-tested, packaged in child-proof containers, and sent to dispensaries, ready for purchase.
How to shop for cannabis chocolates
Understanding labels
While consumers may not always read the label on a Snickers bar, it’s important to read the labels on chocolate edibles so they know what ingredients they’re consuming and how much THC and/or CBD the chocolate contains.
Most cannabis chocolate packages will be labeled with some or all of the following:
Cannabinoid content, including THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and/or CBD (cannabidiol)
Ingredients
Manufacturer info
Nutrition facts
Cannabis warning statements
Universal cannabis symbol
Batch number and lab testing info
Serving size and dosing instructions
Choosing the right cannabis chocolate edibles
While it’s hard to go wrong with chocolate, we all have our preferences. When choosing cannabis chocolate products, consumers should think about what they like and what their desired effects are.
For an uplifting, daytime high, look for a cannabis chocolate made from a sativa strain. For a product to help with relaxation, infused chocolate from an indica strain might be a good choice. If a user is simply looking to get high while eating some dank chocolate, focus more on the ingredients and cacao content.
Any cannabis chocolate from a legit brand is going to taste good, but that doesn't mean every single one will hit that sweet spot. There is a wide variety of chocolates available on Weedmaps — and we’re not just talking milk, dark, or white. There are chocolates infused with other flavors, like mint and orange, or filled with mix-ins, like nuts and dried fruit. There are also cannabis-infused chocolate-covered coffee beans and weed gummies, caramel-filled truffles, and mini bars.
Once a consumer has determined their goals and preferences, it’s time to think about dosing forms. Some chocolate edibles are available as full-size candy bars, while others come as individual bite-sized pieces.
Full-size bars typically offer multiple servings, so consumers should break off a piece when they want to consume one serving. Bites are a little easier to dose because each piece is usually one serving.
How to consume cannabis chocolate edibles
Directions and dosing
Whether a consumer buys individual cannabis chocolates or a cannabis chocolate bar, the package label will usually include the total amount of THC and/or CBD in milligrams the product contains and how many milligrams of THC and/or CBD each serving contains.
For example, if a consumer buys a 20-serving cannabis chocolate bar that contains 100 milligrams of THC (total), the label should say:
20 servings
100 mg THC
Serving size: 1 square (if the bar is scored) or 1/20th of a bar
5 mg THC per serving
Frequently asked questions
Like any cannabis product, the effects of cannabis treats and chocolates will depend on the strain used to make the product and its terpene profile.
If a consumer buys cannabis-infused chocolate truffles made from an indica strain that’s dominant in myrcene and linalool, they’ll likely feel relaxed, sleepy, and happy. If the cannabis chocolate contains an extract from a limonene and pinene-dominant sativa strain, a user might experience a boost in energy and feel more alert.
How quickly cannabis chocolates take effect and how long the high lasts can differ widely depending on the person and the product. Typically, a consumer might start feeling the effects anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours after consuming chocolate edibles.
A consumer’s dose, metabolism, and body chemistry also play a role in their experience.
The duration of the high can vary as well, but effects generally last between 4 and 8 hours, sometimes shorter or longer depending on individual factors.
The best place to store cannabis-infused candy is in a cool, dark, dry place, in its original, child-proof container, out of reach of children and pets.
Cannabis candy or chocolate can be stored in the refrigerator for a longer shelf life.
Can users freeze cannabis chocolate? Yes, but should they? Probably not. Freezing and thawing create condensation that messes with the texture, so what was a nice smooth chocolate might end up feeling chalky or grainy.
Yes, like all cannabis edibles, cannabis candy expires.
Consumers should check the expiration date on the label to determine how soon they need to consume their edible candy before it starts to go bad.
It varies and depends on potency, brand, location, quality, number of servings, and ingredients.
Consumers can typically expect to spend anywhere from $10 to $50 on cannabis chocolate edibles.
Consumers can buy cannabis chocolates, along with THC gummies, chews, mints, baked goods, cooking ingredients, and many other THC edibles, from dispensaries near you for pickup or delivery on Weedmaps.
