Gummies are probably the simplest way into CBD. There’s no dropper, no earthy hemp taste, and you know how much is in each one. They’re not all alike, though, so this is what we’d look at before buying.
Per jar vs per gummy
400mg, 1200mg, 4800mg: that’s the CBD in the whole jar. The figure you actually want is how much is in one gummy. It should be on the label, and if it isn’t, divide the jar total by the number of gummies.
It matters because the FSA advises healthy adults to keep to 10mg of CBD a day or less, and a lot of gummies are above that per piece. We go into it properly in how much CBD should I take?
Vegan, sugar-free and allergens
Plenty of gummies are made with pectin rather than gelatine, which makes them vegan, but check the label or product page to be sure. If you’re cutting down on sugar, we have a sugar-free range. If you have any allergies, read the ingredients every time, even on a brand you’ve bought before.
Ask to see the lab report
The lab report (COA) is what shows the CBD content is genuine and that THC is within UK limits. Look for the “View lab report” link on the product page, or just ask us in the shop.
Shapes and flavours
Bears, cherries, cubes, rings, and a good spread of fruit flavours. If gummies aren’t your thing, there are CBD lollipops and other sweets and edibles too.
Keeping them fresh
Lid on, somewhere cool and dry, out of the sun. Keep them well away from children and pets, because they look exactly like ordinary sweets. Use them by the best-before date on the jar.
Things people ask us
Are they legal?
Yes, as long as they have no more than trace amounts of THC and other controlled cannabinoids and meet the FSA’s rules for CBD food products.
Will they get me high?
No. CBD doesn’t do that, and legal UK gummies only contain trace amounts of THC, which is the part of cannabis that does.
Can I have them alongside a CBD oil?
You can, but count everything together. The FSA’s 10mg is for your total CBD across the day.
We sell our own CannaPower gummies (400mg to 4800mg) alongside Royal Hemp Co., Supreme and Hempthy, with vegan and sugar-free options in the mix. See the full range, or come and see them in person in Camden.
