Cake Boss
Also known as: Boss Cake, Cake Boss OG
Overview
Cake Boss is an indica-dominant hybrid strain (60% indica/40% sativa) created through crossing Wedding Cake and Boss OG strains. This meticulously crafted hybrid emerged from skilled breeding efforts by multiple cultivators, with Solfire Gardens being notably credited for one version of the strain. The genetic lineage marries the sweet, dessert-like characteristics of Wedding Cake with the earthy, kush undertones of Boss OG, resulting in a well-balanced cultivar that delivers both recreational and therapeutic benefits.
The strain is visually striking, featuring dense, spade-shaped minty green nugs adorned with thin orange hairs and a frosty coating of tiny white trichomes. Cake Boss has gained popularity among cannabis enthusiasts for its exceptional flavor profile and balanced effects, making it suitable for both novice and experienced users. With THC levels typically ranging from 20% to as high as 35% depending on the phenotype and growing conditions, this strain offers potent effects while maintaining manageable psychoactive properties. The strain's complex terpene profile, dominated by myrcene, contributes to its distinctive aroma and therapeutic potential.
