When it comes to cannabis edibles, few options deliver the perfect balance of flavor, potency, and discretion quite like THC-infused candy. Cannabis candy, particularly THC hard candy, has become a favorite among cannabis enthusiasts for its versatility and long-lasting effects. Illicit Gardens is thrilled to introduce Gemstones, our newest line of cannabis-infused hard candies, crafted for those who appreciate bold flavors and exceptional effects. Available in Missouri and New Jersey dispensaries, Illicit Gemstones are set to elevate your edible experience.
What Is THC Candy?
THC candy, also known as weed candy, is an edible infused with tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the primary psychoactive compound in cannabis. Unlike baked goods or gummies, THC hard candy is designed to dissolve slowly in the mouth, allowing cannabinoids to be absorbed through the mucous membranes before entering the digestive system. This unique method of consumption offers a discreet and flavorful way to enjoy cannabis.
Meet Gemstones: A Masterpiece in Cannabis Confectionery
Illicit Gardens’ Gemstones are a standout in the world of THC hard candy. Each jar contains 100mg of THC, with each individual piece offering a precise 10mg dose. Some varieties contain infusions of CBD, CBG, and/or CBN as well. Each formula ensures a reliable and enjoyable experience every time. Crafted with care by our master confectioners, Gemstones feature a perfect balance of flavor and cannabinoids, delivering both taste and effect in every bite.
Gemstones come in a variety of mouthwatering flavors to suit every palate:
Peaches & Dream: A luscious blend of juicy peach and creamy notes.
Orange Cream: Bright, citrusy sweetness paired with velvety creaminess.
Strawberry Cream: The classic taste of ripe strawberries with a smooth finish.
Butterscotch: Rich and buttery, perfect for those who love indulgent flavors.
Sour Watermelon: A tangy twist on a summertime favorite.
Blue Raspberry: Bold, fruity flavor with a sweet-tart balance.
Green Apple: Crisp and tangy, delivering a refreshing burst of flavor.
Our carefully crafted flavors make Gemstones a treat for the taste buds while providing the potent effects you expect from Illicit Gardens.
Why Choose THC Hard Candy?
Cannabis candy, particularly hard candy, offers several unique benefits that set it apart from other edibles:
Discreet: THC hard candy is easy to carry and consume without drawing attention, making it a great option for on-the-go use.
Controlled Dosing: Each piece of Gemstones contains a consistent 10mg of THC, allowing you to customize your experience based on your tolerance and desired effects.
Flavor Variety: The diverse range of flavors in Gemstones ensures there’s something for everyone.
Fast Absorption: Since THC hard candy dissolves in the mouth, some of the cannabinoids are absorbed sublingually (under the tongue), which may result in faster onset compared to traditional edibles that are digested.
How Long Does THC Candy Stay in Your System?
The duration THC remains in your system depends on several factors, including your metabolism, frequency of use, and the dosage consumed. Generally, THC candy, like other edibles, can stay in your system for 1 to 30 days, depending on usage habits. Keep in mind that while the psychoactive effects of THC candy typically last 4 to 6 hours, trace amounts may remain detectable in your body for longer.
Do Hard Candy Edibles Hit Faster?
THC hard candy has a unique advantage over other edibles due to its dual absorption method. As the candy dissolves, some THC is absorbed through the mucous membranes in the mouth, providing quicker effects than edibles that must pass through the digestive system. While you may still experience the delayed onset common with edibles, the sublingual absorption of THC hard candy can lead to faster initial effects compared to baked goods or gummies.
How Strong Are Candy Edibles?
The strength of candy edibles, including THC-infused hard candy, depends on the dosage per piece and your individual tolerance. Gemstones by Illicit Gardens are crafted with a potent 10mg of THC per piece, making them ideal for both experienced users and beginners who want a manageable dose. Start with one piece and wait at least 90 minutes before consuming more to gauge your response.
Why Gemstones Are the Ultimate Weed Candy Experience
Illicit Gardens’ Gemstones stand out from other THC candies for their precision, craftsmanship, and quality. Each Gemstone is carefully dosed with 10mg of THC, providing a predictable and enjoyable experience every time.
Crafted by master Illicit confectioners, our new THC candy showcases meticulous attention to detail, perfectly balancing flavor and cannabinoids. Their versatility makes them ideal for any occasion, whether you’re relaxing at home or attending a social gathering. With seven delicious flavors to choose from, there’s a Gemstone to suit every preference and mood.
As a product of Illicit Gardens, these candies are made from high-quality cannabis and undergo rigorous testing to ensure both safety and potency, making them a trusted choice for cannabis enthusiasts.
How to Enjoy Gemstones Responsibly
To make the most of your THC hard candy experience, follow these tips:
Start Low and Go Slow: Begin with one piece (10mg) if you’re new to edibles or unsure of your tolerance.
Be Patient: Wait at least 90 minutes to gauge the effects before consuming another piece.
Store Properly: Keep your Gemstones in a cool, dry place, away from children and pets.
Stay Hydrated: Like all cannabis products, THC candy may cause dry mouth, so drink plenty of water.
Know Your Limits: Avoid driving or operating machinery while under the influence of THC.
