Now available at Elevated Lounge, this indica-dominant hybrid blends rich, buttery flavors with sweet fruitiness, making it feel like a morning feast in every puff. 🍓🥞
The name alone sparks a craving for a lazy Sunday brunch, where pancakes are piled high, strawberries are fresh, and the syrup is flowing. But instead of a sugar crash afterward, this strain delivers a calm, creative, and relaxing vibe that lingers long after the last exhale.
Appearance
Like a stack of perfectly golden pancakes, the buds of Strawberry Pancakes have warm, inviting hues. They’re dense and frosty, with shades of deep green, golden brown, and hints of reddish-orange hairs that mimic a fresh strawberry topping. The trichomes glisten like powdered sugar dusted over a short stack, making it a visual treat before you even take the first hit.

Aroma
Opening a jar of Strawberry Pancakes is like walking into a bakery at sunrise—the air is thick with sweet cream, fresh berries, and doughy warmth. The buttery richness from its Pancakes parent strain shines through, while hints of green apples and light pastry notes from Strawberry Fritter add an extra layer of decadence. It’s the kind of scent that makes you wish you had a plate of the real thing sitting right in front of you.
Flavor
This strain doesn’t just smell like breakfast—it tastes like it, too. On the inhale, buttery sweetness and doughy richness take center stage, like a freshly flipped pancake with a drizzle of syrup. As the flavor lingers, the juicy strawberry and crisp green apple notes from Strawberry Fritter create a bright, fruity contrast. The exhale leaves behind a creamy, slightly nutty finish, reminding you of the last bite of a perfectly balanced bite of pancakes and fruit.
Lineage
Strawberry Pancakes is a delicious fusion of two dessert-inspired strains:
Pancakes (Cookies x Seed Junkie Genetics) – Known for its buttery, doughy, and creamy flavors.
Strawberry Fritter – Brings in sweet strawberry, tart green apple, and pastry-like notes.
Together, they create a smooth, luxurious strain that captures the best of both parent strains.
