Are Marijuana Baked Goods And Other Edibles Profitable? Not Yet

October 18, 2016: 12:00 AM EST
Turns out, the burgeoning cannabis market isn’t fueling tremendous profits among makers of marijuana-infused baked goods. According to industry experts, so-called cannabis edibles makers end up having to plow profits back into their businesses just to keep up with the mercurial regulatory environment. This despite the fact that edibles comprise as much as half of the marijuana sales in places like Colorado and Washington. Edibles include chocolate, candies, gummies, drinks and baked goods; baked goods are about 10 percent of the total cannabis market, which is expected to reach $27 billion by the end of 2016.
