Frosted Cake
Frosted Cake
Also known as: Frosted Cakes
Overview
Frosted Cake, also known as Frosted Cakes, is a hybrid cannabis strain created from crossing Strawberry Shortcake and Jungle Cake. Developed by the legendary breeders at Jungle Boys, this strain is an indica-dominant hybrid with an 80% indica/20% sativa composition. The strain is characterized by its fluffy, dense, popcorn-shaped forest green nugs adorned with light amber hairs and covered in a thick, frosted layer of amber-tinted crystal trichomes, which gives the strain its distinctive "frosted cake" appearance that resembles dessert frosting.
Frosted Cake delights the senses with a creamy strawberry exhale that blends harmoniously with sweet vanilla undertones, skunky and sweet notes balanced by an earthy richness from its Jungle Cake lineage, and an aromatic finish of spicy diesel and gas. The strain typically expresses myrcene, caryophyllene, and linalool as the predominant terpenes, giving it a super sweet flavor profile with barely perceptible notes of cheese and diesel. With THC content ranging from 13% to 22% and CBD levels between 1% to 9%, Frosted Cake offers a balanced cannabinoid profile that makes it suitable for both recreational and medicinal users.
