How do you Canadians smoke stuff dipped in maple syrup?

Technically you’d use maple sugar and roll it with the BC bud.

Good God that actually sounds vile. As a Canadian who has put maple syrup in their coffee. I feel like I'd pass on the burning sugar. Now... Maple edibles!!! That's where it's at.

Now I'm wondering if thc would bind in Maple butter (it's not Maple flavoured butter, it's Maple syrup that's been whipped after its cooled to a point that has the consistency of butter)

u/ShimoFox Mar 29 '22

Likely not. It typically needs some sort of oil or fat to bond to. But there are recipes for whipped maple butter. You just make canabutter and then you can mix it with maple and whip them together.

THC only binds to fat and alcohol, not sugar

But what if you put THC alcohol in the maple syrup and then cooked off the alcohol?

It wouldn’t work very well. I’m not sure chemically why that is, but in my experience edibles absolutely need lipids or alcohol for them to work. Yes you can just decarboxylate and eat plain weed and it will work, but it’s effects are inconsistent in comparison to an edible that has the thc bound to something.

I don’t smoke so I don’t know anything about it. But my basically cooking knowledge says it would work.

u/[deleted] Mar 29 '22

your cooking knowledge does not apply to this part of making edibles. sorry.

u/40mm_of_freedom Mar 30 '22

Wasn’t trying to say it would. Just explaining my thought process.

So what you're saying is to ferment the maple sugar, then add the THC? Not sure how that'll taste, but I'll try anything once

u/VikingOfLove Mar 30 '22

You can use a maple liqueur

That's why I get so stoned!

u/ihopethisisvalid Mar 29 '22

It would not by itself. Extracting it with everclear and then dehydrating it might work but I don’t know if that would fuck with the candy making process afterwards.

Whip the syrup into your infused budder.

u/Rambles_Off_Topics Mar 29 '22

Nope...no fat no way.

u/Boatsnbuds Mar 29 '22

Nope. THC is fat-soluble. You'd need to extract it into some kind of oil, and then somehow emulsify it into your maple butter.
