Historical sample observations
A historical UK review sample provides the following sample-specific context. Ice Cream Cake by Seed Junky Genetics is an indica-dominant hybrid strain bred by crossing Gelato 33 X Wedding Cake . \nWe took a look at a frosty looking sample of this strain for this edition of the archive's cannabis strain review series. \n Background \nThis strain was bred by Seed Junky Genetics, and the phenotype was found by Dank Growing Farms , a grower in the UK with a history of finding good cuts (like the Marmalade people are currently raving about) and grown by Chemdank. \n\nApparently the genetics weren't terribly stable with this strain - many of the plants hermie'd, but the plant this sample comes from made up for it.\n\n Gelato and Wedding Cake both bring indica/indica-dominant genetics to the table, and these heavyweight strains are rightly popular on both sides of the Atlantic due to their appearance, smell, taste and effects. The Ice Cream Cake combines the genetics and the results do not disappoint!\n Appearance \n \n\nThese are some of the frostiest nugs the reviewer ever did see! At least here in the studio - this looks good even compared to other 10/10 strains. \n\nThe sample consists of tight, stacked and dense nugs which are covered - and the reviewer mean covered - with white trichomes, giving the appearance of frosting caked all over the bud.\n\nIt is also presented well, with a top-class hand trim, plus a good dry and nice cure.\n\nThere's not much critical the reviewer can say about this sample.\n Smell \n \n\nThe Ice Cream Cake smells strongly pungent, gassy and sweet, with solid skunky notes that are apparent before the bud has been squeezed.\n\nWhen the reviewer crack open the sample and grind it up, a stronger gassier scent fills the reviewer's nostrils. It smells similar to an OG strain but with more sweetness. Pinene is definitely in the terpene profile of the Ice Cream Cake as well.\n\nThis is a very nice smelling strain - and the smell is so strong that it is going to offend anyone in your vicinity that does not like the smell of cannabis - this sample has got that deliciously offensive pungency you get from some strains.\n Taste + Smoking Experience \n \n\nI tried this out in two ways for the video review, bong and vaporiser, but the reviewer had also smoked it in a joint, enjoying the strain it in the weeks running up to this review. With all that in mind, the reviewer will still say that the reviewer cannot pick the reviewer's favourite consumption method for Ice Cream Cake.\n\nThis bud tastes good however you consume it. The flavour matches the aroma - particularly when vaped. The terpene profile gives it a rich, gassy, moreish flavour that is as sweet as it is piney.\n\nThe bong goes down really smooth, and the vapour tastes wonderful.\n Effects \n \n\nA strong indica-dominant stone awaits consumers of the Ice Cream Cake. For the reviewer, this takes the form of some initial relaxation which does not inebriate the reviewer massively, leaving the reviewer free to continue with the reviewer's regular work.\n\nThe effects do fall on the indica side, but the reviewer still felt chatty and happy/uplifted. It lasts a moderate length of time, and is not over strong, so the reviewer can get used to smoking this one day and night.\n Conclusion \nThe grower of this sample, and indeed the genetics of this strain itself both really knocked it out of the park! Really strong appearance (this looks much better than anything the reviewer had ever purchased in Amsterdam or Barcelona, for a start).\n\nIt does not fail to impress in the aroma, taste or effects and the consumption experience is smooth and tasty - second to none.\n\nIce Cream Cake has earned a near perfect strain review, as the reviewer cannot think of anything critical to say about this bud. the reviewer rate this one 10/10.
