Potency
The Vanilla Frosting strain is a slightly Indica-leaning hybrid (60% Indica/40% Sativa) made through crossing the infamous Humboldt Frost OG and Humboldt Gelato BX3 strains. The strain name says it all. With the broad terpene profile dominated by myrcene and caryophyllene, this marijuana has a flavor remarkably like vanilla frosting, featuring sweet and creamy notes that are accented by light, rich floral hints. The aroma is similar, although it boasts hints of pungent, woody herbs too. Stoners describe the effects of this strain as happy and light. This is why Vanilla Frosting is used by medical patients struggling from stress and tension. In combination with its extra high THC level of 21-23% and these effects, this cannabis is suitable for experienced patients.
The cannabinoid make up is also made up of the following compounds:
- CBD 0.43-0.76%
- CBC 0.36-0.74%
- CBG 0.44-0.93%
- CBN 0.06-0.22%
- THCV 0.28-1.1%

The terpene profile is vast and is dominated by sweet berry-like myrcene and earthy with spicy hints of caryophyllene. The strain has a sweet vanilla cream flavor with berry undertones that can be noticed when the nugs are burned away. The aroma is more floral with lavender and pine hints that are perfectly combined with the same vanilla cream hints.

Deeeellliiish taste and even better when it comes to pain management. My all time fav.
Yeap, everythinhg #Stoned says is true but i would add that the flavors are HEAVENLY
Quite strong , i was certainly not expecting it but i wouldn't be caught dead complaining.
If it's the vanilla frosting strain wake me up even at 3! am doing this for its euphoric feeling. Yes Please, I want more.
Am saying it for the first time, marijuana doesn't need to leaven awful aftertaste. That is why am stuck with this baby
I will say it now that this wasn't the high I expected it to be. Dope overperformed! Loving the relaxing effect it has on my mind. I am never getting depressed again.
This baby calms my migraine down. Am loving the vanila taste too. Tastes like cake to me.
Great taste for a day's puff. I want to have it for ever.
One of the best strains to grow. Stinky , strong and dank.
You might want to change Vanilla Frosting to 60% Indica 40% sativa and not the other way around. you also have it marked as a Sativa when it is a Hybrid that is Indica dominant Strain. if you go to Humboldt seed's web site it will give you confirmation on the strain they created. just like to see the correct info when looking things up!
I'm just curious as to why it says Sativa Dominant here and on the Humboldt seed web site they say it's 60% Indica 40% sativa? they should know since they created this strain!
Its like fresh black grapes. Gives you a high that lasts long but keeps you focussed. I flt its good to take in slow puffs than hurry. Otherwise, you get al dizzy and sleepy.
Its nutty, makes mouth a bit bland but that is also very very good because any aftertaste can spoil the mood for me. A good addition that I got from leafly suggestion
Trusted allbud for first time and I am not disappointed. It gives you a happy relxation that is enough for a person like me. Dealing witha shitty boss is torture.
It is a true depiction of tropical fruits. A great one for fruity lovers.
I dont lose my mind but the happiness is immense too!
MORE AND NOW! Love you!
Wheres the Vanilla? <3
Id rather eat my childs vanilla milk powder. Both give no high.
