A Bay Area company is catering to medical marijuana users statewide who have a sweet tooth.
It's not the eggs that make these pastries special, though there are eggs along with sugar, chocolate and flour.
These pastries are high in calories, high in carbs, but these are high in potency, too.
"We pretty much make our cookies like you would any other bakery, any other cookie, we just have a little bit of green in our butter," said Danny Nunan, a baker at Korova Edibles.
The Bay Area's Korova Edibles is making a name for itself in medicinal marijuana circles for the amount of pot it puts in its products, for having a trained pastry chef with culinary credentials, and a respected lab that works to make sure doses are accurate.
CW Analyticals is the lab that checks the potency of the "cannibutter," the marijuana-laced butter they use here. That's generally a sketchy area as accuracy is not regulated in California.
"We are actually advocates for lab tested products...whether it be us or another company," said Lauren McNaughton of Korova.
The bakery would rather not reveal its location; marijuana is still against Federal law. Not to mention, with piles of marijuana and sometimes cash, it's still a dangerous business.
And the pot is plentiful, especially in the products. They specialize in high potency, 1,000 milligrams, ten times the maximum THC content allowed in states where it's regulated.
"We meet people that not only eat 1000 mg but ask for something stronger, whether it be for pain relief or insomnia, or just their tolerance," McNaughton said.
Korova products are in more than 200 dispensaries in California, among the largest pot bakers in the state.
Laws or so vague here edibles could be coming from someone's home kitchen with no expertise or testing, or from places like this. What you buy to get high can vary greatly.
