About this Hybrid Strain
Layer Cake is a popular, high-powered, indica-dominant cannabis strain that many cultivators have produced. Its origins are believed to be in the gardens of Swamp Boys Seeds. It comes from a three-way cross involving four strains. Technically speaking, a Layer Cake is defined as a cake made up of two or more layers with icing or another filler between them. Triangle Kush is mated with Skunk, which is then crossed with GMO (also known as Garlic Cookies), and finally crossed with Wedding Cake. Sounds like the definition of a layer cake to me, with a nice layer of kief as the filler. The Layer Cake nuggets are made up of bright orange clumps of pistils and fuzzy golden trichomes, over chunky dense fern-green leaves. Using a tray underneath when handling the buds is recommended, as the kief content can be extremely high.
Layer Cake is notable for its distinct aroma, blending the sharpness of old cheese with the earthy tones of cedar wood. Upon combustion, this strain reveals a taste similar to its smell, enriched by a buttery aftertaste. Its high THC content, often exceeding 25%, alongside its effects, has garnered attention. Users describe experiencing a deep physical relaxation and a joyful, euphoric mental state. What sets Layer Cake apart is its ability to deliver these potent effects without leading to an overwhelming sense of lethargy. Instead, users report feeling mentally alert and motivated, making it a unique choice among powerful strains. This versatility allows it to be enjoyed as a boost for activities or relaxation, praised for its capacity to elevate mood, stimulate appetite, and provide comfort. For those seeking a robust strain that supports both activity and relaxation, Layer Cake might be the perfect fit.
