Auntie Dolores Background<\/strong><\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
Founded by Juliana Carella in 2008,<\/span> <\/span>\u00a0Auntie Dolores was named after Dolores Park, one of Frisco\u2019s most popular public parks; plus in Latin and Spanish <\/span>dolor<\/span><\/i> means \u201cpain,\u201d so \u201canti dolores\u201d (against pain) is a clever pun. Sorry if you thought these THC infused snacks were made by a sweet, little old lady.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The company is committed to making edibles that’ll help health-conscious patients improve their quality of life (check out their <\/span>manifesto<\/span><\/a>). Everything is made in-house, accurately labeled, and lab tested for a consistently delicious and safe experience.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
All their edibles are infused with CO2 cannabis oil using a proprietary, supercritical extraction process, derived from blended and balanced hybrid strains. They also preserve the <\/span>terpenes<\/span><\/a> to enhance aroma and taste, providing a wider range of cannabinoids for a more balanced effect. <\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Healthier Edibles<\/strong><\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s take a look at what auntie Dolores has\u00a0to offer, starting with her\u00a0more unique and snackable medical marijuana treats.<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Chili Lime Peanuts<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
![\"Chili](\"https:\/\/getnugg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/20150818-auntie_dolores_0057.jpg\")
<\/p>\nThese protein-rich peanuts are gluten and sugar-free and flavored with lime, chili, and garlic. If you like spicy-tart flavor combos, you’ll scarf these down quickly because they have an addicting hotness\u00a0followed by a heavy lime aftertaste.<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If not, you\u2019ll probably eat them as recommended\u2014<\/b>five per dose (10mg) <\/b>slowly over the course of the day. Either way, keep some cold liquids handy as you munch.<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Chili Lime Peanuts cost about $15 per canister<\/b>, so the price is right, and actually test a bit higher than the labeled 50mg THC<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Glazed Pecans<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
![\"Glazed](\"https:\/\/getnugg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/glazed-pecans.jpg\")
<\/p>\nThese 100mg THC ($20) <\/b>glazed pecans are a three-pronged treat!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Firstly, they have a gourmet flavor you\u2019ll flip for since their ingredients are as simple as they are flavorful: balsamic vinegar, organic coconut, chipotle powder, cayenne pepper, and kosher salt. Add them to salads, desserts, or just eat them right out of the package.<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Secondly, snacking on this delicacy will keep you medicated for a few solid hours, depending on your tolerance; auntie recommends starting with a single dose (about five), or just 10mg<\/strong> of THC, though that\u2019s hardly enough to feel glazed over. Still, proceed with caution.<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Lastly, this classy epicurean delight provides an excellent source of manganese, protein and unsaturated fats without compromising taste. And as a special bonus for you more health-conscious patients, they\u2019re paleo, vegan, gluten-free and low glycemic<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Savory Pretzels<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
![\"Savory](\"https:\/\/getnugg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Savory-Pretzels.jpg\")
<\/p>\nAuntie Dolores\u2019 flagship product, these savory mini-twist pretzels are spicy, vegan, sugar-free, potent and downright delicious. Coated with <\/span>cayenne, cinnamon, clove, paprika, onion, garlic, ginger, mustard and tamarind, there are <\/span>120mg of THC (about $23)<\/b> in each container.\u00a0We\u2019re willing to bet you can\u2019t eat just three of the recommended 10mg dose!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Want this great taste and medicinal benefits without the psychoactive fun? Try the <\/span>60mg CBD<\/b> version (roughly $25).<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Caramel Corn<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
![\"Caramel](\"https:\/\/getnugg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/caramel-corn.jpg\")
<\/p>\nOh boy, sweet, savory and delicious! Auntie has outdone herself with these <\/span>120mg THC <\/b>canisters of crunchy kernels <\/span>(about $22)<\/b>. Movie night\u2019s never felt so good. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Again, the labeling suggests trying <\/span>3 or 4 pieces (10mg)<\/b>, but you know caramel corn\u2026the pieces tend to stick together and pretty soon one dose turns into five. Their ingredients are all-natural and gluten-free: cannabis oil, hand popped non-GMO project certified corn, brown sugar, butter, pure vanilla extract, and kosher salt.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We recommended consuming no more than half the canister, even for high-tolerance patients, or auntie may have you crying uncle!<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Cheese Biscuits<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
![\"Cheese](\"https:\/\/getnugg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Cheeese-Biscuits.jpg\")
<\/p>\nWhat the heck are infused cheese biscuits? Actually, they\u2019re cheese crackers gussied-up with <\/span>200mg of THC <\/b>in every $20\u00a0<\/b>container<\/strong>. These sugar-free snacks are made from sharp cheddar cheese, mustard powder and paprika, only with a milder flavor and heartier texture. Auntie Dolores claims you can freeze them in a Ziploc bag for up to six months without losing flavor or potency, but why save them for later when they’re so good?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Chocolate Edibles<\/strong><\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
Now that you know about the\u00a0health conscious products, let\u2019s take a close look at her more traditional, cannabis infused chocolate based sweets. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Chocolate Brownie<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
![\"Auntie](\"https:\/\/getnugg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/10mg-brownie.jpg\")
<\/p>\nMade from the same recipe as its stronger brother, this version only has 10mg THC <\/b>(around<\/strong> $5<\/b>)<\/strong>, so it\u2019s ideal for new patients and featherweights; and, unlike the others, it\u2019s low enough to eat in one bite!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Chocolate Chip Cookie Bite<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
![\"Chocolate](\"https:\/\/getnugg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/cc-cookie-bite.jpg\")
<\/p>\nThis <\/span>50mg THC<\/b> incarnation combines soft, brownie texture with classic chocolate chip flavor in a small vegan treat. Cut it in half or into quarters if you have a low tolerance, but if you\u2019re a more experienced patient it can be eaten in one sitting. Costs around <\/span>$10<\/b>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Peanut Butter Brownie Bite<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
![\"Peanut](\"https:\/\/getnugg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Peanut-Butter-Bite.jpg\")
<\/p>\nMoist, gooey fudge <\/span>50mg THC <\/b>brownie is the perfect combination of light, fluffy chocolate cake with thick, sticky peanut butter. A fat dollop sits in the center, so when you bit into it you get more complex combo of flavor and texture. This\u2019ll also set you back <\/span>$10<\/b>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Chocolate Brownie Bite<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
![\"Chocolate](\"https:\/\/getnugg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/chocolate-brownie-bite.jpg\")
<\/p>\nSmall but potent, this <\/span>100mg THC <\/b>baked choco brownie-muffin is made with organic Dutch cocoa and chunks of mini-fudge; not to mention it\u2019s vegan, low calorie and low glycemic. We recommend dividing it into quarters (25mg) or eighths (12.5mg); only eat the whole thing if you have an extremely high tolerance and\/or in severe pain. About <\/span>$15 each<\/b>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Toffee Brownie Bite<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
![\"Toffee](\"https:\/\/getnugg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/toffee-bite.jpg\")
<\/p>\nAnother bite-sized <\/span>100mg THC<\/b> brownie, only this one\u2019s topped with pieces of satisfyingly salty, crunchy homemade toffee. The mix of soft and brittle texture makes for a very enjoyable medicating experience. Split it up or crumble over your favorite dessert. Around <\/span>$15<\/b> a piece.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Cocoa Sparkle Cookies<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
![\"Cocoa](\"https:\/\/getnugg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/cocoa-sparkle-cookies.jpg\")
<\/p>\nOne of auntie\u2019s seasonal products, these mini-cocoa cookies are made with semi-sweet chocolate chips, organic Dutch cocoa, cacao nibs, and sweetened with turbinado and coconut sugars. They come in <\/span>200mg THC<\/b> canisters (10mg per dose) that sell for about <\/span>$30<\/b>. Also vegan, low-glycemic, and sugar-free.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
CBD Superfood Truffles<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
![\"CBD](\"https:\/\/getnugg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/CBD-truffle.jpg\")
<\/p>\nHemp-derived CBD<\/strong> and other beneficial cannabinoids are packed into three (10mg each)<\/b> scrumptious, nourishing truffles. They\u2019re full of superfoods like cacao, coconut oil, a\u00e7a\u00ed, blueberries and even a bit of coffee to give you an extra energy boost; and because there\u2019s an extremely low amount of THC, you can savor these at the same time without getting high.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
CBD Chocolate Brownie Bite<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
![\"CBD](\"https:\/\/getnugg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/CBD-Brownie-Bite.jpeg\")
<\/p>\nThis non-psychoactive version of their scrumptious chocolate brownie boasts 50mg of hemp cannabinoids,<\/b> like CBD, CBN and CBG. The hemp itself is grown specifically for medical purposes so it leaves you still able to function. Like most CBD products, at $15<\/b> these are slightly more expensive than their more fun THC counterparts.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Medical Marijuana Dog Treats?!<\/strong><\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
![\"Treatibles](\"https:\/\/getnugg.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Treatibles-300x166.jpg\")
<\/a><\/h2>\nYes, you read that correctly. All mammals, including dogs, have an endocannabinoid system, just like you! Auntie Dolores now makes infused dog treats under the <\/span>Treatibles<\/span><\/a> label to help man\u2019s best friend deal with a broad spectrum of conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Before you start writing letters to the ASPCA, note that these canine edibles are <\/span>hemp derived<\/b> CBD, CBN and CBG. Non-psychoactive <\/span><\/span>cannabinoids<\/span><\/a> only; no THC. They\u2019re available in pumpkin and blueberry flavors<\/strong>, both in <\/span>small ($24) or large ($35) bags, <\/b>with one milligram of CBD in\u00a0every treat. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Where to Find Auntie Dolores<\/strong><\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
You can do a Google search or check Weedmaps to find a local dispensaries that carry Auntie Dolores<\/a>, but this can be a tedious and time consuming process, especially if you need\u00a0to travel, use gas then wait to speak to a budtender who isn\u2019t as helpful as you\u2019d hoped.<\/span><\/p>\n
