About London Pound Cake
London Pound Cake was bred by the Cookies team as part of their expanding genetics portfolio. The strain crosses Sunset Sherbet with a proprietary OG Kush line, creating a flavor profile that's sweet, doughy, and berry-like with a distinct 'pound cake' richness. The buds are dense and chunky with dark green and purple hues, heavily coated in trichomes. Effects are indica-dominant — deeply relaxing, euphoric, and sedative without complete couchlock. London Pound Cake became a fixture of Cookies-branded dispensaries and was widely licensed to growers across legal markets, making it one of the most commercially successful Cookies strains of the decade.
