Smell / Taste
Cake strains are famous for their sweet, deserty aromas, think vanilla icing, warm cookies, and pastry straight from the oven. Wedding Cake is the star of the show, but you'll also find Ice Cream Cake, Birthday Cake, Lava Cake, and a few others that share that same sugary vibe.
Most balance their sweetness with earthy, peppery, or citrus notes, so they're never one-note.
Read MoreWhat makes them smell like dessert?
Wedding Cake is the one that started it all. The main note is sweet vanilla frosting, like someone's just iced a sponge cake nearby.
Underneath that there’s pepper, earth, and a squeeze of lemon. Some cuts throw in hints of butter, cookies, spice, ginger, or even a faint skunk edge.
Ice Cream Cake leans into candy sweetness with a big pine kick, and those frosty buds look as good as they smell. Cookies n Cream is all sugar-cookie vibes, while Birthday Cake brings frosty vanilla sweetness front and centre.
The flavour often shifts the balance a bit. Wedding Cake can taste tangy and lemony with pepper and earth, then leave vanilla on the tongue. Other times it's more like sugar cookies or cherry pie with a berry-vanilla coating.
Ice Cream Cake stays smooth and candy-sweet, and Cookies n Cream mixes nutty vanilla with a herbal-sour finish. Lava Cake is pungent and sweet, and Cake Donut has that floury, buttery marshmallow thing going on.
The Cake is the odd one out, it ditches the dessert angle completely and goes for skunky diesel with pine, spice, and wood.
The terpenes doing the work
Most cake strains lean heavily on caryophyllene, the terpene that gives black pepper its bite. Wedding Cake packs beta-caryophyllene, limonene, alpha-humulene, and linalool, which together create that peppery, spicy, citrusy mix.
Humulene adds an earthy, hoppy scent, and myrcene and limonene bring in the sweet, tangy layers. You'll also find linalool and pinene across the family, rounding out the bouquet.
Cakes N Cream throws lemon, berry, frost, and skunk into the mix, and Garlic Budder, an indica-leaning oddball, goes for spicy garlic and creamy butter instead.
The vanilla note that runs through so many of these strains is what sets them apart. It's not just sweet. It's pastry-forward, and it plays nicely with the other flavours rather than drowning them out.
The big names and what they bring
Wedding Cake is still the flagship. Its aroma blends sweet and earthy with nuts, pine, herbs, berries, and a touch of funk. The flavour is sweet and earthy with pine, lemon, herbs, nuts, and a hint of pepper.
Ice Cream Cake hits with a strong, pungent smell, and those frosty buds with purple flecks and orange hairs are a sight.
Captain's Cake takes a different route with a sour-earthy scent and strong lemon-berry overtones, which don't quite match its sweeter flavour. Cookies n Cream tastes and smells exactly like dessert, no surprises.
Birthday Cake has buds that shimmer with crystals like candle frosting, and Lava Cake delivers a pungent, sweet flavour that stays consistent.
The Cake is the rebel, heavy, spicy, dank, with skunky diesel notes. The flavour is pungent and skunky with hashy diesel undertones.
