French Beignet
Also known as: Bayou Fried Donuts
French Beignet Strain Overview
French Beignet is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain created by Bayou Boys Genetics, bred through crossing Apple Fritter × Mac1 × Gary Payton. This strain was developed as part of Bayou Boys' experimental project to create dessert-inspired cannabis varieties, first introduced in the early 2010s. Known for its distinctive appearance featuring pink to magenta calyxes and a striking aromatic profile reminiscent of freshly baked beignets, this strain has earned the alternate name "Bayou Fried Donuts." French Beignet exhibits rapid growth characteristics with the ability to finish flowering in as little as 42 days, though extending to 45-48 days enhances the development of its signature colorful calyxes. The strain displays medium height with a bushy structure, producing dense, trichome-rich buds with vibrant green hues and bright orange hairs. Its complex aroma unfolds with sweet, pastry-like notes dominated by the scent of fresh fried donut dough glazed with icing, complemented by subtle hints of vanilla and earth. This unique sensory profile has made it highly sought after among cannabis connoisseurs and has led to numerous genetic crosses within the Bayou Boys catalog.
