4.8 (247 reviews)

Wedding Cake, also known as Triangle Mints #23, or Pink Cookies, is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain with award-winning genetics. It’s typically made by crossbreeding Triangle Kush (an indica-heavy strain) and Animal Mints (a hybrid strain). It can also come from crossing Girl Scout Cookies (a hybrid strain) and Cherry Pie (an indica-dominant hybrid), depending on the breeder.

About Wedding Cake Strain

A quick overview of the Wedding Cake strain:

  • Type: Hybrid (60% indica, 40% sativa)
  • THC Range: 25% – 27%
  • Dominant Terpenes: Caryophyllene (pepper), Limonene (citrus), Myrcene (herbal)
  • Aromas: vanilla, peppery, buttery, earthy


Wedding Cake set the industry standard, becoming one of the most popular cannabis strains due to its potency, containing a high level of THC. It’s also popular due to its rich terpene profile and tangy, sweet flavors with earthy undertones.

Due to its popularity, Wedding Cake cannabis strain is widely available in multiple formats such as flower, concentrates, vapes, and edibles.

The flower can be easily recognized by its dense, chunky structure. The colors can vary from dark to lighter shades of green, with occasional purple hues. It’s also coated with a rich, trichome coating, giving the nugs a frosty, glistening appearance. Some buds might also have vibrant pistils (hair-like strands) that range from red to orange shades.

Wedding Cake Cultivation Notes

  • Genetics: An indica-dominant hybrid (Triangle Kush x Animal Mints), moderately challenging to grow — not the best pick for a first-time grower, but manageable with some experience.
  • Climate: Prefers a warm, semi-humid climate outdoors (70-80°F / 21-27°C) with low humidity through flowering. Indoors, it’s sensitive to humidity spikes late in flowering given its dense bud structure.
  • Growth pattern: Short, bushy structure with minimal stretch — stays compact, which makes it a good fit for growers with limited vertical space. Heavy lateral branching means it often needs support once buds fill out.
  • Flowering time: Around 7-9 weeks indoors; outdoor harvest typically early to mid-October.
  • Yield: Moderate yields — on the lower-to-moderate end compared to Blue Dream or Gelato, though quality/potency is often prioritized over quantity with this strain.
  • Susceptibility: Dense, chunky buds are prone to mold and bud rot in humid conditions, so airflow management is important. Reasonably resistant to pests otherwise.
  • Nutrients: Responds well to standard feeding; some growers bump phosphorus/potassium in flowering to support the heavy trichome and resin production it’s known for.
  • Training techniques: LST and topping help open up the dense canopy for light penetration; SCROG works well given its short, bushy growth habit. Branch support (stakes/trellis) is common once colas get heavy.
