Birthday Cake
Birthday Cake, sometimes labeled Birthday Cake Kush, is the Seed Junky cross of Cherry Pie and GSC. It reads as one of the original frosted-vanilla strains and an early ancestor of the entire Wedding Cake family.
Aroma is dessert: vanilla frosting, light cherry, and a creamy finish. Limonene leads, with caryophyllene support. Smoke is smooth and the flavor carries through clean. Some users describe it as a slow-burn evening strain, the kind of pick that pairs with a long dinner or a quiet movie. Common across NY, MA, and California menus for adults 21+.
