How do you bake a spacecake? We’ve all tried it or thought about it! But still not sure how exactly to make a space cake and what the steps are? Then be sure to read on!

A space cake is a cake that contains cannabis as an active ingredient. It is usually made by cooking cannabis in butter or oil, after which the oil is used in preparing the cake. Eating space cake can lead to a slower and milder spread of effects compared to smoking cannabis.

Long-lasting and intense high

Among the benefits of eating space cake is that it can provide a long-lasting and intense high.^[1]When you eat cannabis, the active compounds are metabolised in the liver and converted into another chemical compound called 11-hydroxy-THC. This compound has a stronger psychoactive effect than the original THC found in cannabis. As a result, eating space cake can produce a more powerful and long-lasting high than smoking cannabis.

Improved pain relief

An additional scientifically proven benefit of eating space cake is improved pain relief. Cannabis is known for its analgesic properties^[2], and when consumed in the form of space cake, it can have a longer-lasting effect compared to other forms of administration such as smoking. This is because the active ingredients are gradually absorbed into the body, making the effect last longer.

Improved appetite stimulation

Consuming space cake can also help stimulate appetite. The endocannabinoid system, which is involved in the regulation of food intake, is affected by cannabis consumption^[3]. Several studies have shown that eating space cake can lead to increased appetite and promote calorie consumption. This may be beneficial for people who have difficulty eating due to medical conditions or treatments such as chemotherapy.

How do you make a space cake?

Ensure that you carefully weigh the ingredients, especially the cannabis, using a precision scale. Your cake will taste even better if you’ve grown the cannabis yourself with our high THC seeds!

Here is a simple basic recipe to get you started:

Supplies:

250 grams of butter
250 grams of flour
250 grams of sugar
4 eggs
10 grams of ground cannabis (more or less depending on the desired strength)

To prepare space cake, start by preheating the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Next, melt butter in a pan over low heat. Add ground cannabis to the melted butter and simmer the mixture for 20-30 minutes to activate the active ingredients. Strain the liquid butter to remove any cannabis residue.

Meanwhile, in a separate bowl mix flour, sugar and eggs thoroughly. Then add the sifted cannabis butter to the batter and stir well. Pour the batter into a greased baking tin and smooth the top. Place the baking tin in the preheated oven and bake the space cake for 40-45 minutes, or until a skewer comes out clean when you stick it in the middle.

Finally, let the space cake cool completely before serving. Enjoy your meal!
