Keeping Your Cannabis Edibles Cool: A Summer Guide to Avoid Melting

Summer is here, and with it comes the promise of sunny days, trips to the beach, and…melting cannabis edibles? That’s right, as the temperature rises, so does the risk of your beloved cannabis treats turning into a gooey mess. Fortunately, all of our gummies are pectin based so you won’t have to worry about those melting, however, any of our chocolate bars, peanut butter nugs, and lollipops are at risk of melting.

If you love our high-quality cannabis chocolates, the last thing you want is to open your package to find a melted lump. So, here are a few strategies to keep your cannabis edibles safe from the scorching summer heat.

Understanding The Melting Problem

Cannabis edibles come in various forms: gummies, chocolates, cookies, and more. While all these can technically melt under extreme temperatures, it’s important to note that not all edibles are created equal when it comes to their melt resistance.

For instance, our gummies are pectin-based, which makes them more resistant to heat than gelatin-based ones. So if you’re a fan of gummies, you’re in luck – you won’t have to worry about these little treats melting.

However, chocolate bars – a classic and popular choice among cannabis edible consumers – are prone to melting. So are our caramels, peanut butter nugs, and even brownies. This is especially true during standard shipping times when your package could be exposed to the elements. That’s why you need a game plan to protect your edibles, particularly chocolates, from the heat.

Cool Tips to Prevent Melting

1. Opt for In-store Purchases if You’re Local

One of the easiest ways to avoid melting cannabis edibles is by picking them up in-store. This not only eliminates exposure during transit but also gives you the chance to enjoy our wide selection of products up close. Remember, it’s always cooler in our store than it is in a delivery truck!

2. Use an Ice Pack for Shipping

If you’re having your edibles shipped, consider adding an ice pack to your package. The ice pack will help keep the temperature down, preventing your edibles from melting. It’s a small investment that can save you from the disappointment of opening a package filled with melted chocolates.

3. Never Leave Your Edibles in the Car

Just like you wouldn’t leave a bar of chocolate or a dog in a hot car, never leave your cannabis edibles in the car during summer. Cars can heat up quickly in the sun, becoming like an oven. Always take your edibles with you when you exit the car to ensure they stay cool.

How to Recover Melted Edibles

Despite our best efforts, sometimes the summer heat can get the best of our cannabis edibles. But don’t despair if your chocolate bars do melt. Pop them in the fridge to solidify, then break them into pieces and enjoy. They might not look as good as before, but they’ll still deliver the same potent effects.

Conclusion

While summer brings a host of enjoyable activities, it can pose a threat to your cannabis edibles. But, with a few simple strategies, you can protect your investment from the heat. Whether it’s using an ice pack for shipping, buying in-store if you’re local, or ensuring your edibles never stay in the car, you can enjoy your cannabis treats without worrying about them melting. After all, the only thing that should be melting this summer is your stress away!
