Type I
THC-dominant
Terpene profile most dominant first
Chemotype — the cannabinoid and terpene profile — is the signal that stays true to a cultivar’s genetics, which is why scientists classify cannabis by chemical profile (a “chemovar”) rather than by name (Hazekamp & Fischedick 2012). The dominant terpenes below are aggregated from community and lab reporting; aroma and effect associations are preliminary and not medical claims. Lab-verified COA profiles roll out as Areto’s data comes online.
Indica / Sativa — retail shopping guide
Indica, sativa and hybrid are a retail shopping convention — not a reliable guide to genetics or effects. When researchers analysed 89,923 commercial samples across six states, these labels did not predict a plant’s terpene or cannabinoid profile, and a genome-wide study found sativa- and indica-labelled plants to be genetically indistinct (PLOS ONE 2022; Nature Plants 2021). The labels are so fluid that AK-47, a hybrid, won “Best Sativa” at the 1999 Cannabis Cup and “Best Indica” four years later. For an accurate, genetics-true picture, see the chemotype above.

Keep reading to learn all there is to know about Cake Mix, its genetics, aromas, flavors, and more. History of Cake Mix Cake Mix is a hybrid cannabis strain sold by Lemonnade—the sister company of Cookies, focusing primarily on sativa-dominant cannabis strains and products. Lemonnade was founded in 2015 by rapper Berner and Brett Wilson, a longtime cannabis cultivator whose first experiences in the grow room date back to when he was 12 years old and being called in to help his Dad tend to his weed plants. Originally from Santa Cruz, Wilson always had a passion for the old-time genetics he saw his Dad growing when he was only a kid. Just before meeting Berner in 2015, Wilson had begun a meticulous hunt for strains with that iconic lemony freshness characteristic of Santa Cruz strains like Lemon Diesel. Together with Berner, he then crafted a menu and brand dedicated to these strains, their unique flavors and aromas, as well as their uplifting, creative an
