Review: Double Baked Cake Live Budder by Binske
Multi-state label Binske came to Illinois last year through a partnership with licensee Ascend. While I’ve had the opportunity to sample the brand’s flower, I recently spotted concentrates from Binske at Stash Dispensary in Orland Hills. I picked up a gram of Double Baked Cake Live Budder to review.
Double Baked Cake is an indica-leaning hybrid cross of Layer Cake and Wedding Cake. This batch of live Budder tested at 2.826% THC, 87.165% THCa, and 93.37% total cannabinoids. Terpenes were 3.56% of the total weight with β-caryophyllene, α-humulene, and linalool indicated as the heaviest.

A messy mound of light caramel-colored badder carried a wet sheen at the surface but a drier, more crumbly wax texture in the interior. Dense and sticky, the badder had a tacky stability that made dosing easy.
Tangy fruit notes of ripe raspberry and candied lemon led but were quickly outcompeted by an earthy blend of cacao, forest floor, garlic, and wild onion. On the palate, the earthy mix of fresh dirt, garlic, and onion was cushioned by a roasting fat and barbecue note on the exhale. Despite the strong savory notes, Double Baked Cake had almost no staying power and left a clean palate behind.
Double Baked Cake was heavier than anticipated and even a single-dab sesh delivered a fast-acting mental relaxation that tamped down my stress levels but took my motivation along with them. A wave of clarity took over my awareness and train of thought but left me quiet and introspective due to the motivation dip. The physical buzz began as euphoric tingles in my arms but became a heavy pressure on my crown and brow at the peak that last well past an hour.
