As a CBD connoisseur, you may be looking for new ways to cook with CBD flower. Cooking with CBD flower is easy and can be a fun way to incorporate CBD into the foods you already love! Use these recipes for inspiration on what to cook with CBD flower so you can enjoy your food even more.

Prep Steps for All CBD Flower Recipes

There are a few preparatory steps to take before cooking with CBD flower, no matter what you’re making. First, always prepare the cooking area and make sure that the kitchen has a working exhaust fan. You’ll be cooking with and decarboxylating CBD flower after all, so the aroma could be a lot to handle for some. Once you’ve verified this, you can move onto decarboxylation.

Decarboxylation involves activating the compounds naturally present in cannabis flowers. The heat involved in decarboxylation helps break down the carbon bonds. To decarboxylate the buds of CBD flower for cooking, follow these steps:

1. Preheat oven to 225 °F
2. Break 1/8 to ¼ oz of the CBD flower into small chunks
3. Spread the CBD flower a cookie sheet
4. Bake the CBD flower in the oven for 45 minutes
5. Let the CBD flower cool for 20 minutes after removing from oven

Recipes for Cooking with CBD Flower

CBD Brownies with Cannabutter

Brownies are a go-to in any CBD lover’s diet, but how you make them makes all the difference. You can either add ground-up CBD flower to your brownie batter before you put the brownies in the oven, or you could CBD flower into CBD oil to make cannabutter.

Follow these steps to make cannabutter:

1. Decarboxylate the CBD flower (see above).
2. Grind decarbed CBD flower to melted butter.
3. Simmer the mixture on low heat between 160 °F and 200 °F. Do not let the mixture boil.
4. Once the cannabutter cools, strain it by pouring it over a funnel in a jar lined with cheesecloth.
5. Refrigerate the cannabutter and use as you would regular butter in brownie mix.

CBD Flower Pancakes

Similar to CBD Brownies, cooking with CBD flower for pancakes can take shape in the form of using CBD oil or sprinkling decarboxylated CBD flower into the pancake batter directly. If you choose the latter, follow these steps:

1. Using a large bowl, sift 1 ½ c all-purpose flour, 3 ½ teaspoons baking powder, ¼ teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon white sugar, and ¼ oz ground, decarboxylated CBD flower together.
2. Pour 1 ¼ c milk, 1 egg, and 3 tablespoons melted butter (and/or cannabutter) in the center.
3. Mix until smooth.
4. Lightly coat a frying pan with oil and set it to medium-high heat.
5. Pour about ¼ cup pancake batter onto pan.
6. Flip once the sides start to brown.
7. Enjoy!

** note: If you taste the hemp after trying the first pancake and would prefer not to, add chocolate chips to mask the flavor.

CBD Flower Salad Dressing

Now for something savory: CBD Tomato Vinaigrette. Consider this CBD flower salad dressing a different way to get in your greens while cooking with CBD.

First, you’ll need to make CBD-infused olive oil. To do so, add just less than 1 tsp of CBD-rich decarboxylated CBD flower to 1 c of olive oil. Stir thoroughly. Then use the CBD-infused olive oil in the following recipe for a CBD Tomato Vinaigrette:

Ingredients:

• 1 c cherry tomatoes
• 1 c CBD-infused olive oil
• 3 tbsp regular olive oil
• ½ c red wine vinegar
• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp pepper

Instructions:

1. Place regular olive oil, tomatoes in large sauté pan and set to high heat.
2. Let tomatoes redden until they blister.
3. Turn off heat, allow to cool, and blend in blender with red wine vinegar.
4. Add mustard and slowly drizzle in CBD-infused olive oil slowly.
5. Season with salt and pepper.
6. Bon Appetit!

If you’re new to using CBD, you may be wondering whether CBD oil or CBD capsules are better. Both CBD oil and CBD capsules are popular ways to take CBD, but which one is right for you? That depends on several factors. The competition between CBD oil vs. capsules is fierce; learn about how to choose between CBD oil and CBD capsules here.

Many people enter the CBD game wondering which form of CBD is best? The truth is that there is no one “best form of CBD.” The best CBD is the one that is best for you. CBD oil vs. CBD capsules comes down to personal preference. Take into account your lifestyle, the reason you’re taking CBD, convenience, dosage, the effects you want to get from CBD and those factors will determine the kind of CBD that is right for you.

Timing your CBD

There are two main things to consider about the timing of your CBD. How quickly do you want the CBD to take effect and how long do you want the effects to last? CBD oil is fast-acting and can go into effect within 15 to 30 minutes of taking it sublingually. CBD capsules, however, take a little longer to kick in. Users typically start to feel the effects of CBD capsules within 30 to 90 minutes.

Then consider how long you want the effects of CBD to last. CBD oil typically lasts around 4 to 6 hours, whereas CBD capsules could keep you going for 8 to 10 hours. One is not better than the other; it just comes down to what your day looks like and your schedule.

CBD Taste and Consumption

Do you have a problem swallowing pills? If so, CBD oil would be the way to go over CBD capsules. Do you care about how CBD oil tastes? People who are sensitive to certain flavors or tastes may prefer CBD capsules over CBD oil. Even unflavored CBD oil varieties sometimes have an earthy taste that doesn’t sit well in everyone’s mouth. Again, the debate about CBD oil vs capsules comes down to preference.

Think About Convenience of CBD

Your lifestyle is a key determining factor in whether CBD oil vs capsules will be best for you. People who want to take CBD on the go may find that capsules are better suited for them than oil because the capsules are more transportable and easier to travel with. On the other side of the coin, if you’re taking CBD at home, the pros of CBD oil vs CBD capsules may outweigh the cons.

The Bioavailability of CBD

Both CBD oil and CBD capsules can give you the effects you’re looking for, but something to keep in mind is bioavailability. CBD capsules have less bioavailability than CBD oils because they lose some of their potency on their way to the bloodstream. Don’t let this deter you from taking the capsules. The loss of bioavailability is minimal, but it is something to keep in mind if you’re drilling down into the scientific nitty gritty elements.  

Dosing CBD

Some people prefer to manage and self-regulate the dosage of their CBD whereas others want it to come pre-portioned for them. It’s easier to adjust the dosage with CBD oils than it is with CBD capsules because capsules come in a fixed amount. With oils, you can choose to take a full, ½, or part of a dropper as your dose depending on how strong you want the effects of CBD to be.

CBD gummies may look like the fun candy you’d find on the shelves of your local convenient store, but these gummies are meant to give you a different kind of effect that goes beyond a sugar high. Finding the right CBD gummy dosage can be a little tricky, which is why some manufacturers don’t even put a recommended dose on their bottles. While the CBD gummies dosage at Black Tie CBD has 1 piece as a serving size, we still recommend that users start with ½ a gummy and wait 90 minutes for it to take effect.

That said, it can still be tough to determine the right dosage for CBD gummies for you. That’s why we’re here to help! Use this article as a guide for figuring out your perfect dosage for CBD gummies.

The right CBD dosage for you and your goals depends on several factors, some of which include:

CBD Dosage and Body Weight

Body weight is the one of the easiest ways to estimate how many CBD gummies you can (or should) eat in a day. People with less body mass, i.e., lighter individuals who weigh less, tend to get affected more quickly than heavier folks. This is not an insult, nor is it to say that those with more body mass will always require a higher CBD gummy dosage than others. Body weight is simply one way to gauge tolerance. To find your recommended starting dose for CBD gummies, take 1 mg per 10lbs of body weight. Divide your weight by 10 and you should have a good idea of what CBD gummy dosage will be right for you.

CBD Gummy Dosage and Your Body’s Chemistry

How CBD gummies affect each person varies; while body weight is one indicator, body chemistry may be equally, if not more, important. CBD is a substance. Like any other substance, your body’s chemistry will impact how the substance reacts internally. Some people have more muscle mass; others are on certain medications that could result in chemical imbalances.  It is always a good idea to consult with your doctor prior to taking CBD gummies so you know how to get the effects you want without going too far.

The Effect You Want from the CBD Gummies

How many CBD gummies you should eat in a day may also depend on what you want the gummies to do. Do you want CBD gummies to help you relax? Instead of constantly increasing your CBD gummy dosage, the trick may be to find the right strain, like Delta-8 THC for Relaxation. If you’re looking to use CBD gummies for pain relief, however, you may want to go with LunchBox Alchemy’s CBD Squib Full-Spectrum Gummies. As a general rule, for calm and relaxation, stick to 15-30 mg. For sleep, aim for between 10-25 mg. For pain relief and/or inflammation, anywhere from 5 mg-50 mg is advised. Some people go all the way up to 600 mg, but remember that everyone’s body makeup is different, so start slowly.

The maximum number of CBD gummies you should take in a day will be specific to you and your needs. CBD gummies dosages will vary from person to person, but the most important thing to remember is to make sure they come from a high-quality source like Black Tie CBD.

As you may have learned from our last blog, terpenes are the most overlooked yet arguably the most important aspect of cannabis. They’re a little bit like cannabinoids—THC, CBD, and others—in that they have specific and medically useful interactions with our bodies.

If you aren’t familiar with terpenes; unlike cannabinoids, terpenes are found in many plants; they’re the chemicals that give a plant its aroma and flavor. Different levels of terpenes in different strains of cannabis give it a more earthy, fruity, or skunky smell and taste. In addition to stimulating our senses, many of these terpenes have medicinal effects.

In the last several years, scientists started to speculate about the synergic and/or entourage effects of the other cannabis compounds. Today, in the first row are terpenes/terpenoids, but we’re also focused on talking about flavonoids, flavonoid glycosides, and polyphenols. There are 120 terpenes found in cannabis, but for the sake of time, this article will focus on the 5 most dominant terpenes found in cannabis.

So, what are the top 5 terpenes?

‍

One of the most common terpenes found in cannabis is myrcene (also known as alpha-myrcene or beta-myrcene). β-Myrcene is the most common and a particularly potent terpene and is a component of the hydrocarbon fraction of many essential oils. It occurs naturally in over 200 plants and is present in the emissions of many trees in different parts of the world. Exposure to β-myrcene from natural food sources is estimated to be 16,500 times more than from its synthetic use as a flavor substance.

On average, myrcene represents over 20% of the terpene profile in modern commercial strains, although individual samples vary widely in their terpene content.

Scents and Aromas

Myrcene has a spicy, earthy, musky scent that gives cannabis strains a mildly sweet flavor profile. β-Myrcene is a pleasant-smelling, olefinic, acyclic unsubstituted monoterpene that occurs naturally in many plant species, especially in the essential oils of plants such as hops, cannabis, lemongrass, verbena, and bay, as well as in citrus fruits and citrus juices.

Effects of Myrcene

Antioxidant Activity:

In recent decades, there has been growing interest in the use of naturally occurring antioxidants in food preservation. Antioxidant agents are accountable for preventing aging and degenerative diseases such as atherosclerosis, cardiovascular diseases, cancer, diabetes and neurological illnesses. They also have an important role in inhibiting lipid oxidation within food products.

Anti-inflammatory Activity:

Myrcene has shown anti-inflammatory and anticatabolic effects on human chondrocytes. Cartilage degradation and osteoarthritis progression was slowed down. The anti-inflammatory activity of β-myrcene may not only be credited to its antioxidant potential, but also with its interaction with signal pathway cascades involving cytokines and transcription factors.

Central Nervous System Effects and Neurobehavioral Activity:

In a study, Myrcene in cannabis demonstrated measurable effects on the autonomic nervous system in healthy human subjects. Inhalation of cannabis essential oil for 5 min improved nerve activity and was shown to relieve stress and anxiety, and the subjects generally felt more relaxed, energetic, calm, and elevated mood, five min post inhalation.

Farnesene, also known as Trans-β-farnesene, is a sesquiterpene considered soothing for the mood with calming and sedative effects.  Farnesene is an umbrella term for six different sesquiterpenes which are all chemically similar. There are two types of farnesene: alpha (a) and beta (b), both of which are naturally-occurring in a variety of different plants.

Farnesene is an analog of farnesol and is found in various natural sources, including hops, ginger, turmeric, ylang-ylang, and German chamomile. Another intriguing effect of farnesene is that it acts in many plants as a natural insect repellent, functioning as a pheromone that interacts with various insects. Some studies have demonstrated that aphids release farnesene before the danger of death or when dying to warn their companions of the near threat.

Scents and Aromas

The terpene offers a number of notes, including sweet, woody, berry, fruity, and reminiscent of apples. In fact, that is what the smell reminds of - green apple. Whenever you feel these tones when smoking your fine cannabis, that would be Farnesene.

Effects of Farnesene

Antimicrobial Properties

In some studies, farnesene, in conjunction with other terpenes, has shown antimicrobial activity against some serious types of bacteria, such as Staphylococcus subtilis. Even though the research is limited in this area, using the terpene for this advantage in the human body is no doubt fascinating.

Anti-Cariogenic Properties

Certain types of bacteria in the mouth are directly responsible for causing the tooth enamel to break down and deteriorate. Because of the antimicrobial farnesene effects, terpene may help fight tooth decay. The terpene may be active against Lactobacillus acidophilus, one of the common culprits behind tooth decay.

Anti-Inflammatory Properties

Farnesene has been shown to have prominent anti-inflammatory properties. So much so, that the terpene has been used in the past in place of things like ibuprofen to ease everyday discomforts. The anti-inflammatory actions of the terpene may also be important for future studies in its ability to act against allergic responses.

If you’re a grower who appreciates cannabis with a great terpene profile, you may well have heard of beta-Caryophyllene. It is also known as ‘b caryophyllene’, β-caryophyllene or simply caryophyllene. Ever wondered what the difference is between beta caryophyllene and caryophyllene? There is no difference, they are just different names for the same terpene. It was one of the first cannabis-derived compounds other than THC, CBD, and CBN shown to bind directly to endocannabinoid receptors.

It was one of the first cannabis-derived compounds with a fundamentally different structure from the classical cannabinoids that interacts with the endocannabinoid system in humans. In many ways, beta-caryophyllene is an important reminder that terpenes and cannabinoids are not separate and that the two work in conjunction with one another.

Scents and Aromas

β-Caryophyllene is the primary sesquiterpene contributing to the spiciness of black pepper; it is also a major constituent of cloves, hops, rosemary, copaiba, and cannabis. It’s responsible for the slight bite of pungency associated with smelling cracked pepper.

Effects of Caryophyllene

Sleep

In combination with other terpenes, caryophyllene has shown promise as a sedative. A 2012 study published in the journal Pharmaceutical Biology found that mice treated with essential oil containing caryophyllene experienced increased sleep time as well as decreased locomotion and body temperature.

Beta-Caryophyllene Anti-Inflammatory Properties

Beta-caryophyllene can reduce inflammation in the brain and chemicals that cause oxidative stress associated with inflammation. These properties can aid the brain from swelling during a stroke and improve its outcomes. Besides, it has been shown to reduce gut inflammation.

Beta-Caryophyllene Antibacterial & Antimicrobial Properties

Studies suggest that beta-caryophyllene helps fight bacterial dental plaque build-up and is a potential alternative to prescribed medications like chlorhexidine. Also, it reduces microorganisms like Streptococcus pneumonia, Haemophilus influenzae, and E. coli.

This sesquiterpenoid differs from other terpenes because of its unique structure. Guaiol, sometimes referred to as “champacol,” is most abundantly found in oily timber and resin of the tropical guaiacum plant. Moreover, the cypress tree is also known to be rich in this sesquiterpenoid and other conifers. Guaiol differs from many other terpenes—which are oil-based—because of its unique structure as a liquid.

It is a terpene that conveys an aroma of pine that features fragrant undertones of wood and rose. Like other terpenes, this medicinal molecule is produced by many plants other than cannabis, including cypress pine and guaiacum (an evergreen tree of the Caribbean and tropical America).

Scents and Aromas

Guaiol is responsible for the scents of many plants like nutmeg, tea tree, conifers, apples, cumin, and lilacs. It presents a refreshing piney and woody aroma with some undertones of rose in it. For this reason, guaiol is added to a large variety of foods and household items as an aromatic agent.

Effects of Guaiol

Antibacterial Activity:

A 2017 study entitled “The Essential Oil from the Fruits of the Brazilian Spice Xylopia Sericea A. St.-Hil. Presents Expressive In-vitro Antibacterial and Antioxidant Activity” and published in The Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology found guaiol to be effective in treating bacterial infections. The research revealed that this terpene may be useful as an antimicrobial ingredient in food preservation.

Cancer Potential:

A 2016 study entitled “Guaiol Regulates RAD51 Stability via Autophagy to Induce Cell Apoptosis in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer” that was published in the journal Oncotarget found that guaiol is an effective agent against cancer cells, resulting in their apoptosis, which is a form of genetically pre-programmed cellular death in which cancer cells basically kill themselves off.

Terpinolene is one of the many terpenes in the terpinene and pinene family. While they all share the same molecular formula, weight, and construction,  the placement of the double carbon bond differentiates them. This defines their unique synergistic qualities for therapeutic benefits when combined with CBD products.

Besides showing up in many cannabis varieties, terpinolene is also found in turnips and turpentine. For a long while, research scientists believed terpinolene to act as a sedative. This was due to experiments that determined mice inoculated with terpinolene showed a great reduction in muscle motility contributing to sedation.

Terpinolene by any other name is still terpinolene. Because of its wide use, terpinolene is called by many names depending on the industry and application. Below are a few other names used for terpinolene which you may have encountered in many household products:

• δ-Terpinene (delta-Terpinene)
• 586-62-9 [RN]
• (±)-α-Terpinyl acetate

Scents and Aromas

Terpinolene, though, carries an array of smells you might find in cannabis: It’s piney, floral, herbaceous, and even a little citrusy. Like most other terpenes, terpinolene is produced by various other plant species, including apple, conifer, cumin, lilac, mint, nutmeg, parsnip, and tea tree.

Their extractions from plants are the most important components of the essential oils used in herbal medicine, nutritional supplements, and cosmetics. Terpinolene is used as an aroma agent in soaps and perfumes and as a component of some insect repellents.

Effects of Terpinolene

Sedative

A 2013 study showed sedative effects after nasal absorption into the body(Shimoadachi-cho, 2013). Additionally, In a previous study, the Journal of Natural Medicines tested the sedative effects of terpinolene-dense essential oils on mice. After they isolated terpinolene as one of its active ingredients, they then attempted to determine the structural reason why this terpene has sedative effects. Their research found “Comparison of terpinolene analog activities showed that a double bond in the side-chain or pi bonds in the six-membered ring play important roles in the sedative effect.”

Antimicrobial Activity

One study of a terpinolene-dense plant native to Iran states; “The antimicrobial activity of the essential oil was tested against three different bacteria by disc diffusion method and showed maximum inhibitory activity against Gram-positive bacteria, especially Bacillus subtilis.”

Antioxidant Activity

The International Journal of Phytotherapy and Phytopharmacology published a study where the preparation of LDL from human blood plasma enriched in terpinolene was isolated. The lipids of LDL were protected, and the proteins also didn’t experience oxidation, “This inhibition is due to a retarded oxidation of intrinsic carotenoids of LDL, and not, as in the case of some flavonoids, attributable to a protection of intrinsic alpha-tocopherol.”

From the list of terpenes described, you should see the importance of terpenes in cannabis. They are not merely there for the scents and aromas, but they also have individual medicinal benefits worth considering. Cannabis is so much more than just a strain.

As a THC user, you’ve probably heard the buzz around town about Delta-8 THC. As one of the relatively newer products to hit the market, Delta-8 THC has gotten a lot of attention as of late. This type of THC offers a lot of unique features and potential benefits, but it’s important to be educated before diving into using it. We’re here to give you an overview of what to consider when buying Delta-8 THC products, including what you need to know before you purchase. As always, stay safe and enjoy responsibly!

What is Delta-8 THC?

First things first, let’s give you a quick tutorial on what Delta-8 THC is! Delta-8- tetrahydrocannabinol is a lighter, milder version of Delta-9 THC. Its reduced psychotropic effects are why some people refer to it as “Diet Delta-9” or “Delta-9 lite.” Although less tested than Delta-9, Delta-8 THC products are said to deliver similar effects to those of Delta-9, just to a lesser extent.

If you are new to buying Delta-8 THC products, the key staying safe is to follow these tips.

1. Buy from a Reputable Company

There are plenty of CBD and THC manufacturers out there, but not all of them have your best interests at heart. Before purchasing Delta-8 THC products, do a little research on the retailer and make sure they are legitimate. Spending a few minutes looking for reviews, scientific-backed studies, and anecdotal evidence from people who have bought Delta-8 THC products from a company will go a long way in terms of ensuring that you have a good experience with the product.

2. Look for Lab Testing Results

To piggyback off our last point, a reputable company will make the results of their lab tests available for anyone who is interested in seeing them. Black Tie CBD, for example, gives all customers the opportunity to view the 3rd Party Lab Analysis on all our products so you know exactly what you’re getting with everything you buy.

3. Try Different Formats

Because everyone’s preferences are different, it’s important to experiment with different kinds of Delta-8 THC products to find the one that you like best. Are you into gummies? Try our EUPHORIA Delta-8 THC Gummies in a delicious blue raspberry flavor. Highly potent, these gummies take effect within about 90 minutes to give you a steady release of THC. Perhaps you want something more fast acting. For that, we suggest our Delta-8 THC Syrup. Touted for its uplifting effects, this Delta-8 THC additive has fast absorption that works in as little as 15 minutes and lasts for 6-8 hours. Talk about effective!

4. Pay Attention to Dosage

As with any substance, it is critical to pay attention to the recommended dosage on the manufacturer’s label prior to usage. Dosing guidelines are there for a reason, the primary one being to prevent negative side effects and bad experiences. While it may be easy to stay within the recommended dosage guidelines for things like gummies, given that they come pre-dosed, syrups require more of a careful eye.

5. Go Slow and Be Mindful

If you take nothing else away from this Delta-8 THC Product Guide, the most important thing to remember is that Delta-8 is not intended to get you “high” in the same way as Delta-9 THC. The goal is to enjoy the effects of THC but in a milder, smoother way. Go along for the ride and don’t try to overdo. Everything can be enjoyed in moderation.

Have you heard about Delta-8 THC? Sometimes referred to as Diet Delta-9 or Delta-9 Lite, Delta-8 is a relatively new form of THC that’s making waves within the cannabis market. While many people have already had tons of positive experiences with Delta-8, there are some myths that could be stopping others from trying it. Keep reading to learn about some of the common myths about Delta-8 and see if they hold any truth.

Myth 1: Delta-8 is the same as Delta-9

False. Delta-8 is not the same as Delta-9. Anecdotal evidence from users has many saying that Delta-8 is Delta-9’s “nicer, younger sibling,” but what does that mean? Delta-8 has a different structure than Delta-9 THC.  They also interact with the endocannabinoid systems differently and have unique potencies.

Myth 2: Delta-8 is the same as CBD

False. Delta-8 is not the same as CBD. Although both Delta-8 THC and CBD are hemp-derived products, they are quite different. CBD is derived from hemp leaves and the buds of cannabis plants. Delta-8, on the other hand is taken from the hemp flower and distilled with temperature and pressure fluctuations.

Myth 3: Delta-8 won’t get you high

False. It is a myth about Delta-8 that it won’t get you high. It will have psychoactive effects but to a lesser degree than Delta-9 THC. Delta-8 is designed to deliver a smoother, milder sense of euphoria and stimulation than Delta-9.

Myth 4: Delta-8 only comes as gummies

False. Delta-8 comes in many different forms, just like Delta-9 and CBD! Delta-8 THC products come as hemp flowers, pre-rolls, tinctures, oils, dab waxes, gummies, syrups, dab sauces, edibles, and more! Experimenting with Delta-8 in different forms is the best way to find out how it works best for you.

Myth 5: Delta-8 won’t show up on a drug test

Unclear, but Delta-8 will probably show up on a drug test. While additional research still needs to be done on Delta-8 THC, it is a myth that it won’t show up on a drug test. If you are concerned about testing positive, it’s probably best to abstain from any form of Delta-8 or Delta-9.

Myth 6: Delta-8 is illegal

Again, this one isn’t so clear-cut. Delta-8’s legality depends on the state in which you’re using it as well as how it was derived. Delta-8 THC derived from hemp is federally legal in the United States, and Delta-8 THC derived from cannabis is legal in states where cannabis is legal. Bottom line: do your research regarding your specific state’s laws and regulations as they relate to cannabis and THC.

Myth 7: You can’t purchase Delta-8 online

False. This is the biggest myth about Delta-8 of all! You can certainly purchase Delta-8 online and the best place to do it is at BlackTieCBD.net. We have tons of different Delta-8 THC products available for purchase directly on our online store. Find the form that you like best when you experiment with different types.
