Weed Birthday Cake Potency Guide

To find the potency of your weed birthday cake, you’re going to need to know the potency of your cannabis butter, cannabis milk, or both. If you don’t know the potency of either of these, head over to our cannabis milk guide or cannabis butter guide. There is a calculator at the bottom of these posts that will help you. If you’re only using one of these ingredients leave the other field at 0.

Enter the amount of cannabis you are using to infuse butter, oil, milk, etc.

If your cannabis has a THC content of 25%, type 25

How much of the activated ingredient will you use in your infusion?

    How do you put flavor in the cake? Can I use cake batter instead of cake flour? It seems like the ingredients would leave it with just a vanilla flavor.

      Hello, the main way to put flavour onto a cake is using icing of your choice! This recipe is just for the actual cake portion so it leaves it very customizable to whoever makes it! When using premade batter, just make sure you can include the correct amount of the activated ingredient needed (cannabis butter or cannabis oil). Hope this helps 🙂 Cheers, Jake
