Anybody can tell me if the Cannabis Cooking niche can be profitable?

23,000,000 results in a google search - and you ask if it's profitable?



Do you know more about the topic than the other 2+ million 'medical' users? Do you happen to live in California (just kidding there - look at the graph on the site below)

If you are a competent chef and can provide good recipes that are perhaps targeted to certain markets (diabetics, diet, low suger etc) might be a niche to pursue. My guess is before long there will be more restrictions on selling 'food products' laced with marijuana due to problems with over ingestion or children eating them. Just a guess.


Good place to research is on Amazon books - quite a few cannabis cookbooks showing up there....

i have a non answer answer ..do you know what people actually spend money on in this niche ..

so how are people making money in this niche .. and can you do those things ..and do you know what you can and can do with the current changing rules regulations and laws ..

so business wise what can you do under the current set of laws federal and state .. to make money from this niche .and not end up having the DEA knock at your door .. or knock down your door .

Could be an advantage to be in early....


My view is you need a 'hook' - a focus that is more narrow than simply 'how to cook with cannabis'. Recipes using cannabis and focused on a 'special diet' could end up being a series of books in Kindle, for example.

It is 100% profitable niche, You just need to plan How to present.

"Pass him the peace pipe. Maybe that will shut him up."

Sell or give away a Cannabis cookie, and then sell them anything.



And l lived near neighbours that smoked that stuff, the aroma of burned newspapers and sugar every Sunday, is still in my mind.

If you help people, your business idea is most likely to succeed!

I think it's an industry that's just getting started. In legal states, there's a lot of branded food items for sale at weed shops. Legal weed as an industry is doing billions of dollars in business, and the food stuff is just a part of it. As more and more states legalize, that industry is only going to grow. I think at some point, edibles may even outsell flower and other products that need to be inhaled because there's a huge swath of the population that doesn't want to smoke/inhale anything but still want to get high.

Yes, that's the reason I stopped smoking; very bad for the lungs


Even the growing niche can be part of it I guess since I have a license to produce it as home in big quantities, I could show people how to grow it as well; there are so many products you need to maintain temperature, humidity, perfect soil, treat for insects, treat for mold, adding smell and taste, increasing potency, cropping & trimming, etc

Why dont you give it try and find out , whats the worse that could happen .

just say no to drugs

Any niche can be profitable. You seem passionate about this niche, and that is the necessary ingredient for success.

Build your own blog and do it your own way. Dont worry about the other blogs out there. Give advice for free. Review products (not necessarily the weed), provide honest feedback. You can sell a ton of related products as an affiliate. You will become valuable, build a loyal audience.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Considering you post is in the off topic section. Very few people here take posts like yours serious. Several posts people gave there opinion. Take a look at the thread again and see if any posts help you. It looks like the niche could make a profit, if you find the right angle. You will need to find buyers in that niche.

You may waste valuable time but you will never know either way if you could make a profit or not unless you give it a try. More than half the people on this forum will never try selling anything. Just my .02

If you are a hands on people person(rather than strictly online sales), and want to give classes, it could be a hit. Gets around some of the laws here in Canada. The customers/attendees arrive at your class with product already in hand that they have legally purchased from a dispensary (oil).

You run a 2 hour cooking with cannabis (actually cook) little class. Also promote and sell a cooking with cannabis recipe book (lots of free recipes you can gather from online). Use online for booking and sales of cookbook...your classes are based/prepared from your cookbook. Classes can be held/hosted at many different community oriented locations.

Its legal. Can gear towards theme classes...couples cooking, 40plus, seniors/55plus communities, millennials etc. Cooking with the oil seems obvious. You would be surprised how many people are nervous about actually trying it. Wont bring ya huge money, but definitely nice chunks of pocket money. If I wasn't much of a cook, and intimidated about cooking with cannabis oil, I would pay 40 bucks for a class. x10 participants.

Not sure if teaching the classes would be your thing. If you can book enough locations/participants per week, you could pay a fee to someone to instruct the classes. Strictly MJ restaurants are definitely going to become a thing. I think the learning to cook aspect will also become huge...already starting to.

Brownies/cookies/cupcakes/candies/ are quickly going to become super basic and not as desirable to the public. I feel people will demand a little more sophistication.
