Chocolate and cannabis – two hot favorites in one place! What more can a marijuana lover ask for! Whether you have a recreational or a medical dispensary, you must sell cannabis chocolate to increase sales. Some cannabis chocolates are even consumable by the patients.
Storing cannabis chocolate at a dispensary can be a tricky thing. Today, we will discuss how you can easily store cannabis chocolate. We will start with how to prepare cannabis chocolate. That’s because many dispensary owners prefer to make and sell exclusive cannabis chocolate at their dispensaries as opposed to buying them from the wholesale market. They cite two reasons for this. Firstly, selling self-made cannabis chocolates costs less. Secondly, these exclusive items increase sales.
So, we will start at making the cannabis chocolates in a hygienic manner. This will ensure better storage.
Tips to make hygienic cannabis chocolate
Decarboxylate the bud! It converts the CBDA and THCA available in raw marijuana in the most active forms. If you fail to do this step and directly put some California hemp into the chocolate mix, you cannot preserve it for a long time.
The best way to decarb the weed is to finely grind it and spread it on parchment paper. Now place these in a preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes. You can also keep an eye on the weed for another 5 to 10 minutes. You don’t want to burn it but don’t keep it raw as well. It should have a brick color.
Melt chocolate
This is a regular process. We have nothing to mention here except for one thing. Many often, people use hands while processing the molten chocolate. Don’t do this. It reduces the longevity of the chocolates. Don’t even dip your finger to check its warmth or taste it. Instead, use a spatula or a spoon.
Follow the same direction while pouring the ground weed. Use a spoon while pouring and don’t simply pour it with your hands. The harmful oil at our fingertips adversely affects the moisture-level and the taste of the cannabis chocolates.
Refrigerate in a wrapper
While storing the chocolates, make sure to wrap them in parchment paper. This will keep all the buttery texture and retain the fragrance and flavor intact. Also, instead of storing a bulk amount of cannabis chocolates, make it in small batches.
