Since July 1st, cannabis consumers in California have seen many familiar edibles swept off shelves while companies toil to get fully compliant with new stricter packaging and testing regulations. Not to worry, there are still plenty of great edibles available to please every palate! We did some research into the best baked treats in stores now, from cookies and macaroons to pretzels and granola bites. Here are seven of our favorites.

Dr. Norm’s delectable little cookies are perfect for the cannabis consumer looking to start low and go slow. Labeled as “chocolate chip therapy,” the 40-calorie bite-sized cookies are available in 5mg and 10mg doses, and you can buy just one! Individual packages give you the opportunity to try a single Dr. Norm’s cookie before splurging on a whole bag. The cookies are chock-full of chocolate chips and chopped pecans, and have a supremely satisfying toffee crunch. You can buy individual cookies, or bags of 20x 5mg cookies or 10x 10mg cookies per bag (100mg).
Venice Cookie Co.

The Venice Cookie Company is celebrating its 10th year in business. We can taste why! Infused cookies, churros, and chocolate chews are all delectable options on offer from this OG edibles company—and we love its pretzel bites, too. There’s the Classic Pretzel Bite with sea salt, Honey Mustard Pretzels, or Savory Pretzels, which are reminiscent of an everything bagel. With a low dose of 3-5mgs THC per pretzel, depending on the flavor you choose, this is a great option to “microdose” with your edibles: eat a small amount, wait an hour and gauge how you feel. You’ll learn so much about your tolerance and enjoyment of edibles that way! 100mg THC per bag.
