Blood Orange THC Olive Oil Cake
(12 mg THC per slice · 12 slices · 144 mg total batch)
Moist, fragrant, bright citrus cake with a golden crust and subtle peppery finish from the olive oil. Zero weed taste.
Decarboxylation
0.7 g flower @ 22–25 % THC (or 0.35 g good kief)
240 °F for 40 minutes in a sealed mason jar → ~144 mg usable THC
Infusion
½ cup (120 ml) good extra-virgin olive oil + 1 tsp liquid sunflower lecithin
Warm to 170 °F → add decarbed material → hold 185 °F sous-vide 4 hours
Strain hard → crystal-clear 144 mg THC olive oil
Cake Ingredients
1½ cups (190 g) all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
¾ cup (150 g) granulated sugar
zest of 2 blood oranges
3 large eggs
½ cup (120 ml) all 144 mg THC olive oil
½ cup (120 ml) fresh blood orange juice
¼ cup (60 ml) whole milk or almond milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
Blood Orange Glaze (optional but perfect)
1 cup (120 g) powdered sugar
2–3 tbsp fresh blood orange juice
pinch salt
Steps
1. Preheat oven to 350 °F. Grease and line an 8-inch round or 9×5 loaf pan.
2. Whisk flour, baking powder, salt in a bowl.
3. Rub sugar + blood orange zest together until fragrant and sandy.
4. In another bowl, whisk eggs + zest-sugar until pale (2 min).
Slowly stream in THC olive oil while whisking → emulsified and thick.
5. Add blood orange juice, milk, vanilla → whisk smooth.
6. Fold dry ingredients into wet just until combined (lumps are okay).
7. Pour into pan. Bake 40–50 min (round) or 50–60 min (loaf) until golden and a tester comes out clean.
8. Cool in pan 10 min → turn out onto rack.
9. While warm, poke holes and brush with extra blood orange juice (optional).
When cool, drizzle with glaze.
