Heisenberg Diamonds Ice Cream Cake

Each piece of this Heisenberg concentrate is a crystal of THCA, sold as diamonds and named for Ice Cream Cake, which Leafly traces to Wedding Cake and Gelato #33.

Crystals first, THC only with heat

Diamonds form as a cannabis extract separates and its THCA gathers into solid crystals. In that state the THCA has not yet become THC; heating is what converts one into the other. Small THCA crystals of the same kind often turn up suspended in terp sauce. Our article on THC diamonds explains how they are made.

The strain’s THC and CBG numbers

On Leafly, Ice Cream Cake carries a THC figure of about 22% and a CBG figure of about 1%, with its potency marked above average. AllBud‘s average range is 20% to 25% THC, and our Ice Cream Cake guide says the strain typically tests between 22% and 26%. These figures describe the strain in general rather than these crystals.

Indica-dominant, with two offspring

Leafly describes Ice Cream Cake as an indica-dominant hybrid and points to night-time as the time for it. Sherb Cream Pie and Halle Berry appear there as its offspring. Leafly users give the strain 4.6 across 1,503 ratings, and AllBud’s average stands at 4.7 from 221 votes and 130 reviews.

Health Canada on crystals and other extracts

Diamonds come out of an extract, so they belong to the group Health Canada calls high in THC, citing wax, hash, shatter and kief, and its lower-risk advice tells beginners and occasional consumers to keep away from that group. Its starting suggestion for smoking or vaping is just 1 or 2 puffs, using a product that holds 10% THC or less; inhaled effects arrive in seconds or minutes, though reaching the peak may take 30 minutes.

Driving is out for 6 hours or more after use, according to its lower-risk guidelines.
