About Wedding Cake

Wedding Cake was bred by Seed Junky Genetics, crossing Cherry Pie with Girl Scout Cookies. The result became one of the most popular dessert strains of the 2010s, known for its sweet, vanilla, and peppery aroma (like vanilla cake frosting) and its extremely dense, trichome-heavy buds. The strain leans indica but provides a balanced, euphoric high that starts in the head before settling into the body. Wedding Cake became foundational for the modern dessert strain movement and is a parent to many subsequent hits.
