Heisenberg Shatter Icecream Cake

Wedding Cake and Gelato #33 are the parents Leafly gives for Ice Cream Cake, an indica-dominant hybrid and the strain this Heisenberg shatter is named for.

An indica-heavy cross with two descendants

AllBud calls Ice Cream Cake a rare indica dominant hybrid and puts the split at about 75% indica to 25% sativa, and our Ice Cream Cake strain guide describes it as heavily indica-dominant.

The cross has since been bred onward. Leafly names Sherb Cream Pie and Halle Berry as offspring and shows the short code Icc beside the strain’s name, and its users rate Ice Cream Cake 4.6 across 1,503 ratings.

From head rush to couch-lock, per AllBud

AllBud describes a lifted, relaxing high that opens with a cerebral rush of happiness, after which a body high builds slowly and edges toward couch-lock. Body high, relaxing and uplifting are among the effects its users tag, and the strain averages 4.7 there from 221 votes and 130 reviews.

Snap, dab or crumble

Shatter is a glassy extract you can see light through, and cold makes it brittle enough to snap. It is usually either dabbed or crumbled over flower. Our shatter explainer goes into how it is produced, how strong it can be and the usual ways to use it, while our shatter and wax comparison weighs the two on texture and stability.

Above-average potency, and shatter on Health Canada’s list

Leafly marks Ice Cream Cake’s potency as higher THC than average. Health Canada’s lower-risk page lists shatter by name, next to wax, kief and hash, as an extract with high THC, and its suggestion for anyone just starting out, or for occasional users, is to pass these by. A related set of lower-risk guidelines from the agency keeps anyone who has used cannabis out of the driver’s seat for 6 hours at the least.
