THC lollipops are delicious treats that are perfect for consuming cannabinoids throughout the day. And now that hemp is federally legal, weed lollipops using hemp-derived THC are a great option for those wanting to experiment with cannabis.
Plus, they’re super easy to make and give you a chance to get creative with flavors and shapes.
Here’s how to make THC lollipops using cannabis concentrates.
What You’ll Need to Make Weed Lollipops
First, you’ll need a few supplies to get started.
| Ingredients | Equipment |
| 1 cup of Sugar | A lollipop mold |
| ½ cup of corn syrup | Lollipop sticks |
| ¼ cup of water | A candy thermometer |
| ½ to 1 tablespoon of distillate | A saucepan |
| Flavoring (optional) | Lollipop wrappers (optional) |
Picking out lollipop molds is probably the most fun part of making weed lollipops. You can find molds in just about any shape or size, so have fun with them. Your local big box craft store will probably have a good selection, or you can find them online.
If you’re unsure how much distillate to use, remember that a little goes a long way. We recommend ½ tablespoon for beginners and one tablespoon for more experienced cannabis users.
Selecting Your Cannabis Concentrates
As for the cannabis concentrate, you can use anything you want, but we recommend using distillates. Distillates are great because they’re already concentrated and don’t require decarboxylation. This means you don’t have to worry about having any excess plant material or adding extra steps to your recipe.
Decarboxylation is a timely process and may not be an option if you don’t want to use flower or if you want to make THC lollipops quickly.
If you live somewhere where marijuana is illegal, something like a delta 8 THC lollipop or a CBD lollipop is a great option. Here’s a breakdown of the most popular alternatives people like to use when making weed treats.
| Popular Hemp-based Distillates | Potential Effects |
| Delta 8 THC | Intoxicating; Mild euphoria and relaxation |
| THC-O | Intoxicating; Visual and auditory hallucinations |
| CBD | Non-intoxicating; pain relief and reduced anxiety |
Delta 8 Distillate
Since most delta 8 comes from hemp, it’s a popular choice for making weed lollipops since it’s federally legal. Many people like delta 8 green lollipops because of their mild, euphoric effects. As a result, they can be an excellent alternative for those wanting to avoid the strong psychoactive effects of delta 9 THC.
We offer delta 8 distillates in two sizes, 28G and 100G.
CBD Distillate
You can use CBD distillate if you want to make weed lollipops that are non-intoxicating. CBD lollipops provide the same potential benefits as other weed edibles, but you can use them any time of the day without consequence.
Full-spectrum CBD distillate works best when selecting a concentrate for your CBD lollipops. This type of concentrate contains a variety of cannabinoids and terpenes that each have their own set of potential benefits. However, full-spectrum CBD still contains trace amounts of THC, so a concentrate like CBD isolate powder would be a better option if you’re trying to avoid THC altogether.
Making Your Weed Lollipops
Once you have your supplies, it’s time to start making your weed lollipops.
| Steps | Instructions |
Step1 | Set your saucepan to medium-high heat and pour your sugar, corn syrup, and water into the saucepan. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. |
Step2 | Once the sugar has dissolved, bring your mix to a boil. Use the thermometer to check the mixture’s temperature and continue boiling until it reaches 300° Fahrenheit. |
Step3 | After the mixture reaches boiling point, turn the heat off and let it cool. Once your mixture drops to 250° Fahrenheit, add in your flavoring and distillate. Mix everything until it’s well combined. |
Step4 | Slowly and carefully pour your mixture into the lollipop mold. Make sure not to overfill the mold, as this will make it difficult to remove the weed lollipops. After you’ve filled the mold, insert the lollipop sticks and let the weed lollipops cool and harden. This will take about two hours, but you can speed up this process by putting your mold into the fridge. |
Step5 | Once your weed lollipops have cooled and hardened, they’re ready to enjoy! Use an airtight container to store them in a cool, dark place. When storing them, you may want to keep them separated. If they’re all put into one container, they may stick together. You can also individually wrap them if you’re going to store them for a longer period or give them away. |
And that’s it! You’ve now made your very own THC or CBD lollipops.
Buying Weed Lollipops
You can always buy your weed lollipops if you don’t want to make them.
There are a few things to consider when buying weed lollipops. First, check the labels to see how much THC or CBD is in each lollipop. If you’re new to weed edibles, it’s best to start with a low dose and work your way up.
Second, make sure to check the expiration date. Weed lollipops are typically good for six months to a year, but this will vary depending on the brand.
Lastly, consider which concentrate you want. CBD lollipops are a great option if you want the potential benefits of weed without the psychoactive effects.
Delta 8 lollipops are a nice middle ground and offer a less intense high than THC-O lollipops while still providing some psychoactive effects. As a milder THC lollipop, they’re a well-liked option for cannabis users who want to new experience or a smoother experience.
No matter which type of weed lollipop you choose, make sure to enjoy them responsibly! Start with a low dose and see how you feel before eating more.
Weed lollipops are a delicious and easy way to medicate with weed. Whether you make them yourself or buy them, they’re ideal for those who want a consistent dose of THC or CBD throughout the day.
