Wedding Cake Strain — THCA Profile, Effects, and Where to Buy
Wedding Cake — also known as Pink Cookies or Triangle Mints #23 — is an indica-leaning hybrid by Seed Junky Genetics. Tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA) tests 22-28% with a tangy sour-vanilla-cake nose.
Where Wedding Cake comes from
Wedding Cake is a Seed Junky Genetics cross — Triangle Kush × Animal Mints — first popularized in the late 2010s and now a perennial top-seller. Aliases include Pink Cookies and Triangle Mints #23, depending on the phenotype and breeder. The cultivar quickly became one of the most-licensed strains in the legal cannabis market and migrated into the THCA hemp segment as a top-shelf staple.
Buds are dense and frosty with soft purple-and-green calyxes under a heavy trichome glaze. The aroma is exactly as the name suggests: tangy sour vanilla cake batter with a faint earthy back end.
Terpene profile and what it means
Wedding Cake leads with limonene, caryophyllene, myrcene.
- Limonene — citrus brightness that drives the euphoric front of the high.
- Caryophyllene — peppery, body-relaxing, CB2-binding.
- Myrcene — mango-musk, sedating; brings the back-half body weight.
The limonene-caryophyllene-myrcene trio is one of the most common “indica-leaning hybrid” terpene signatures, which is why Wedding Cake reads slightly heavier than balanced.
What Wedding Cake feels like
The high is heavy-leaning — calming the body and anchoring the mind in a warm, satisfied euphoria. Relax 8/10, euphoria 7/10, sleep 6/10. Energy and focus run lower (3/10 and 4/10).
Best for evening relaxation, light pain relief, and decompressing without dropping straight into sleep. It’s not as sedating as Bubba Kush or After Dark — you can stay social on Wedding Cake — but it’s clearly not a daytime cultivar either.
THCA percentage range
Wedding Cake from credentialed indoor growers tests 22-28% THCA. That’s strong for the format and consistent with the cultivar’s reputation. Verify the COA and confirm federal compliance before ordering.

Frequently asked questions
Is Wedding Cake indica or sativa?
Wedding Cake is a hybrid that leans indica in effect. Body relaxation outweighs cerebral energy, but it doesn’t deliver pure couch-lock.
What does Wedding Cake taste like?
Tangy sour vanilla cake, with a faint earthy back end. Sweet and creamy without being cloying.
Is Wedding Cake good for sleep?
Moderate sleep effect (6/10). Better as a wind-down strain than a sleep-onset cultivar; for full sedation, look at Northern Lights or After Dark.
What’s the difference between Wedding Cake and Pink Cookies?
Same cultivar, different names. Pink Cookies and Triangle Mints #23 are aliases used interchangeably with Wedding Cake.
