Pairing cannabis strains with Halloween candy
Since we’re all about to binge on sweet Halloween candy anyway, we figured this would be the perfect time to break out some of the best cannabis strain pairings to go with each and every flavour. Whether you long for the flaky indulgence of full-size Kit Kats or you prefer some sweet and delicious candy corn, we’ve got a strain recommendation list to suit all your needs on this spooky occasion.

This sweet and sticky Halloween candy is a popular choice because they tend to include a sour twist that tingles the tongue.
Cannabis pairing: Blueberry, Grape Ape, Super Lemon Haze, Cherry Pie, Blackberry Dream
2. Kit Kat

Cannabis pairing: Biscotti, Captains Cake, White Choco Haze, Alien Kush, Tootsie Roll
3. Candy Corn
