What is cannabis cocoa?
Cannabis cocoa is the perfect blend of indulgence and relaxation. Imagine your favorite cocoa - rich and chocolaty - and add a pinch of cannabis. The special thing about it is the combination of the calming effect of cannabis and the soothing taste of cocoa.
All you need is your favorite cocoa recipe and a little cannabis oil or butter. Ideal for cold evenings or simply to unwind after a long day. You can customize the effect to suit your taste.
Cannabis cocoa effect
The effect of cannabis cocoa depends heavily on the type of cannabis used and the dosage. Cannabis cocoa can have both a relaxing and mood-enhancing effect, depending on which cannabinoids (such as THC or CBD) are contained.
Cannabis cocoa containing THC can provide a mild to intense high that is both physically and mentally relaxing. CBD, on the other hand, offers a calming effect without psychoactive effects, ideal for those who simply want to unwind.
Cocoa itself supports this effect through its natural properties: it promotes the release of happiness hormones such as serotonin and provides a feeling of well-being. Together, these two components create a unique experience that can relax both body and mind.
Cannabis cocoa develops its effects more slowly than smoking cannabis, but they generally last longer. Therefore, it is important to start with a low dosage and wait for the effects before consuming more.
Cannabis cocoa dosage
The dosage of cannabis in your cocoa is crucial to the experience. Always start with a low dose and increase it slowly if necessary. For beginners, 1-2 mg of THC or CBD per serving is ideal, while occasional users can choose 2-5 mg. Experienced users often go for 5-10 mg.
For cannabis butter or oil, 0.5-1 g corresponds to a weak effect (1-2 mg THC), 1-2 g to a medium effect (approx. 5 mg THC), and 2-3 g to a strong effect (approx. 10 mg THC). Wait 1-2 hours after ingestion to assess the effect. Pay attention to how your body reacts and adjust the dosage accordingly.
