  • Gently tap the molds against the counter or other flat surfaces to release any remaining air bubbles.
  • Place the chocolate-filled molds in the refrigerator or freezer for 15 minutes to set.After 20 minutes, pop the chocolates out of the molds and place them in a ziplock bag or other air-tight storage container.

Do I Need To Decarb My Weed?

Absolutely, 100% yes!

If you’re new to edibles or rekindling your love of cooking and baking with cannabis then here’s a great article about how to properly and efficiently decarboxylate your weed.

Decarbing basically means you heat the flower to activate the THC so that you can get high. Without decarbing you will not get high, period.

How To Determine The Dosing

The Ideal Dose for a Total Newbie

If you are a microdoser, or this is your first time using cannabis to dose some edibles, use the lowest dosage possible.

A starting dosage of one to five milligrams per edible is sufficient to give you gentle relief from pain and stress and help you deal with anxiety.

At this dosage, you will feel more clear-minded and better able to focus on your studies and work.

A quick way to dose is to add some cannabis-infused oil or cannabutter to some peanut butter as a yummy treat.

The Perfect Dose for a Beginner

If you’ve used cannabis before and are familiar with some of the after-effects, then you can up your dosage slightly. You will be more familiar with how many more edibles you can dose and consume without suffering an unpleasant high.

If you are a beginner and use cannabis for simple relaxation or to sleep better, use a five to 15-milligram dose.

If you start at the recommended 2.5 milligrams and find the effects aren’t strong enough, don’t simply up the intake of THC.  Instead, wait several hours after eating the first dosed edible to let your body metabolize the THC.
