The Cake Mix strain from Cookies’ Lemonnade brand has been around for a while, but it still feels like a fresh discovery every time I come back to it. This hybrid is a cross of Wedding Cake and London Pound Cake #75, two heavy hitters that create sticky, frosty buds that practically glow. It’s the kind of strain that might melt you straight into the couch while leaving you with a big smile across your face.
First Impressions
When you first lay eyes on some Cake Mix strain flower, you’ll probably notice how much it looks like it’s been dipped in powdered sugar. The buds are dense, earthy green, and absolutely coated in trichomes — so much so that the dark orange pistils are barely visible. Breaking one open releases a rush of sweet berry notes that instantly get met with sharp citrus and lemon zest. Then, just as you think you’ve got it figured out, a peppery spice sneaks in at the end. Honestly, just the smell of Cake Mix alone can take the edge off a stressful day.
Flavor and Terpenes
Smoking on Lemonnade’s Cake Mix weed strain, the flavors hit as a lemony dough with sweet, creamy undertones. It’s smooth on the inhale, then gives you that little peppery kick on the exhale to remind you it’s no lightweight. Based on its lineage, the dominant terpenes are likely myrcene, limonene, and beta-caryophyllene — a trio that shows up often in Wedding Cake crosses.
- Myrcene brings the calming, floral berry sweetness
- Limonene delivers citrus zest and may help ease anxiety
- Beta-caryophyllene adds the spice and may wash away body pain
Together, these terpenes give Cake Mix a layered flavor profile that feels both indulgent and therapeutic.
The High
The high from the Cake Mix hybrid strain is a ride. It usually starts in the chest, rising up into the eyes and forehead with an almost electric buzz. There’s a rush of happiness and lightness — the kind that can leave you grinning at random thoughts or conversations. Then the body high slowly creeps in, melting tension and leaving you comfortable wherever you’ve parked yourself. The peppery snap keeps it from being too sedative, but make no mistake: you’ll know you’re high.
Genetics and Lineage
The Cake Mix strain genetics are a perfect mashup:
- Wedding Cake – famous for its vanilla frosting flavors and deeply relaxing effects
- London Pound Cake #75 – a fruity, citrusy Cookies staple with dessert-like qualities
Together, they make a hybrid that’s frosty, flavorful, and balanced — a true dessert cannabis strain that holds its own in the crowded Cookies lineup.
Other Sweet Cake Strains
If you vibe with Cake Mix, you might also enjoy these dessert-heavy strains: Frosted Cakes, LA Kush Cake, Ice Cream Cake, Gelato Cake, Florida Cake, Lava Cake, and Hot Cakes. Each brings its own twist on sweet, creamy flavors and body-melting effects.
Official West Coast Weed Tour Review
I was excited to try the Cake Mix strain flower because I had been disappointed by the brand in another review. I also enjoy Sativa flower over Indica and this brand is supposed to specialize in Sativa, although the Cake Mix is an Indica strain.
The packaging was nice, as always. It doesn’t include social media information but it does list the website, which is informative. I was expecting a lemon-like terpene profile but instead found a strong gassy cake profile.
The flower was a nice structure, just a little fox-tailed. This seems to be a trend for Cookies Brands. The flavor was like a Biscoff cookie, shortbread really came through.
I found that the high was perfect for getting my chores done around the house. I would definitely recommend the Cake Mix strain to those who like Indica strains to feel productive. Truly an enjoyable experience, overall I gave the Cake Mix one of the highest overall scores I’ve awarded thus far.
