When the great nation of Canada legalized cannabis across the country in 2018, the national dessert options suddenly spread far beyond Nanaimo bars and maple syrup taffy. While edibles had a rougher start than flower did in the early days of legalization, there is a large selection today.
Much like in the United States, edibles are continuing to gain in popularity across the Northernmost part of North America. While Canada has tight regulations concerning edibles and concentrates, some of Canada’s biggest producers have stepped in to fill the demand. Here are the top edible brands in Canada, some of whom are producing the best edible gummies in Canada.
Spinach Sourz
Fruity, sweet, or sour, you’ll want to eat your spinach with this gummy. These edibles come in many varieties, like Pineapple Starfruit and Strawberry Mango. They also have options of Sativa, Indica, 1:1 THC:CBD, THC:CBG, and others to provide the perfect fit for your lifestyle. Producer Cronos has been a big name in Canadian cannabis since the beginning, so it should come as no surprise that they’ve created one of the top edible companies in Canada.
Wana Gummies
A favorite wherever they’re found, Wana gummies are known for their consistency and their non-hashy fruit flavours which are enhanced by a blend of over 30 terpenes. Wana gummies aren’t lacking in variety either. There’s CBD blends, indica and sativa dominant, regular and fast acting formulas, and plenty more that any edible consumer could want. Maybe that’s why they’re North America’s #1 edible, as well as one of the best edible gummies in Canada.

There’s a reason that Bhang chocolates have won awards. Their chocolates, made by a master chocolatier, use only sustainably sourced, premium ingredients. The taste of these chocolates, as well as the consistent, dependable dosing, has made this a favorite from California to Canada.
Slowride Bakery
A pastry-brand based out of Ottawa, Ontario, Slowride Bakery has gained fans all over the nation for their small-batch, homemade cookies. Slowride Bakery uses distillate instead of cannabutter, as well as real ingredients, so that when you bite into one of their cookies you’re only tasting that classic cookie flavour.
Trailblazer
Trailblazer’s chocolate bars are made from 90% distillate. That means that Canadian edible consumers will be able to taste the delicious flavours of these creamy chocolate bars instead of the weed. Trailblazer bars come in mocha, milk chocolate, and mint flavours.
Shredems
Bursting with vivid varieties like Wild Berry, Sour Cherry, and Sour Melon, each of Shred’s line of squishy edibles harkens to the nostalgic old days of Gusher’s fruit snacks with a burst of flavour.
Chowie Wowie
Chowie Wowie offers both pure THC and THC:CBD edibles in their line up. Their Watermelon gummies are pure THC, while their deliciously balanced Pineapple Mango is a 50/50 split. They also offer a line of chocolates with both pure THC and THC:CBD options.
Jewels
Jewels set themselves apart from other candy edibles by being a tart. These cannabis fruit tablets are crafted from freeze-dried fruit, which is then rolled in cannabis sugar. This creates an additive-free, lighter edible option for those consumers who value a more subtle effect and cleaner flavour profile. That alone makes them one of the best edibles in Canada, even if they aren’t gummies.
The Wrap Up
While these are the top edible brands in Canada, that doesn’t mean that they’re the only options. As Canada’s cannabis industry continues to grow, anyone who was around for the early days of legalization in states like Colorado, Washington, or Oregon knows that when it comes to the best edible gummies in Canada, the best is yet to come.
