Looking for the perfect last-minute gift to delight a special stoner this Valentine’s Day? Chances are, if you’re a committed cannaphile, your significant other also likes to puff tough, making your daily 4:20 rituals a chance to connect with each other on deep emotional issues. As one half of a “cannabis couple,” I’ve realized that sharing the herb offers my husband and I opportunities for collaborative creativity, relaxation and reconciliation, keeping our relationship strong and vibrant.
Create a romantic evening by offering a massage with infused cannabis topicals, a finely rolled joint, and decadent cannabis chocolate to help your lover get in a sensual mood. You could even prepare a classy infused feast, but make sure not to go overboard, lest you end up getting too sleepy to consummate the occasion!
Best Cannabis Chocolates
Happy Eatable’s Heart-Shaped Chocolates
Nicely boxed for gift-giving, these heart-shaped chocolates are dosed at 25 milligrams of THC. Start with one and let the waves of bliss blanket your body, building to a crescendo of pleasure and contentment. Keep in mind to time your dose correctly. If you’re eating a nice Valentine’s Day meal and consuming cannabis chocolate for dessert, you might not feel the effects of the THC for two or more hours. Sometimes it’s best to start with dessert first!
G Farma Labs Liquid Gold Delights Mint Meltaways
First place winner at the High Times Medical Cannabis Cup in 2014, these beautifully decorated truffles were favored by all of the judges for their taste, as well as their mellow dose. Each truffle contained 25 milligrams of THC for a relaxing treat that won’t send you into the stratosphere, unless you eat all eight! Very professionally packaged and presented, this box of truffles is appropriately dosed for the occasional edible-eater and makes a wonderful gift. Best of all, you can find GFarma Labs chocolates in over 600 California dispensaries.
Grace Notes Chocolate Box
These amazing bonbons arrived in conceptual packaging that celebrated marijuana’s long history with jazz music. The various flavors were dubbed with jazz-inspired names like Muggles, which was a Blackberry Sage truffle, and Watermelons Pickles, containing caramelized fruits. The “Ain’t Misbehavin’” was my favorite, with classic salted caramel. There are six bonbons per box, and they range from 20 to 35 milligrams of THC per chocolate. If your baby just cares for cannabis, this is the perfect gift!
