Why You Will Love This Guide

Members of the Well With Cannabis community consistently tell me that cannabutter is one of the most versatile and user-friendly ways to infuse recipes. It blends seamlessly into baking and cooking, making it an excellent base for turning favorite desserts into infused treats.

In this guide you’ll find more than 25 dessert recipes that use cannabutter, plus practical tips for making your own or choosing a high-quality store-bought option. If convenience matters, my Bliss Cannabutter is lab-tested and ready to use, shipped nationwide to simplify your baking.

How to Make Cannabutter

If you haven’t made cannabutter before, don’t worry — I cover step-by-step instructions for multiple methods. Most techniques use a gentle water bath at low-to-medium heat to infuse cannabinoids without overheating them. That means longer prep time but safer temperatures for preserving potency and flavor.

You can use slow cookers, Instant Pots, stovetop double-boilers, or other low-and-slow methods depending on your schedule and tools. The main differences are equipment and cook time; pick one method and learn it well for consistent results.

Pro Tips for the Best Results:

  • Don’t over-grind your flower. Break it into small pieces rather than pulverizing it to keep flavors mellow.
  • Consider using ghee to reduce separation issues with your final product.
  • If you need help with dosing, consult a flower-to-oil ratio guide to estimate potency before baking.

Buy Cannabutter

If making cannabutter feels overwhelming or you’re short on time, a reliable ready-made option can help. High-quality products such as Bliss cannabutter are made with ghee and lab-tested cannabis to provide consistent dosing — for example, a measured teaspoon may contain specific THC and CBD amounts so you can dose with confidence.

Add cannabutter to your favorite recipes, divide the total THC by servings, and you’ll have predictable, consistent edibles every time.
