The creation of infused confectionery involves incorporating cannabis extracts into a sweet, solid medium. A typical method involves combining sugar, corn syrup, and water to create a hard candy base, then introducing a precisely measured dose of cannabis concentrate during the cooling process. The resulting product offers a discreet and palatable means of consuming cannabinoids.
This particular form of edible cannabis has gained popularity due to its ease of consumption, precise dosing, and relatively long shelf life compared to other infused products. Historically, infused edibles provided an alternative consumption method for patients seeking therapeutic relief without the need for inhalation. Further, these candies offer a controlled and often delayed release of effects, appealing to individuals looking for sustained relief.
