- Sunset Sherbet × Nip OG
London Pound Cake, often abbreviated as LPC, is a distinguished strain developed by the pioneering Cookies Fam Genetics from California. This cultivar gained widespread recognition in the late 2010s, specifically around 2018-2019. Its name, "London Pound Cake," is a nod to its unique sweet, dessert-like flavor and aromatic profile.
The strain is a cross between Sunset Sherbet, celebrated for its fruity and sweet notes, and Nip OG, a proprietary OG Kush variant known for its gassy undertones and dense resin production. London Pound Cake inherits desirable characteristics from both parents, resulting in a robust structure and flowers heavily coated in trichomes.
London Pound Cake quickly became recognized as a flagship strain for Cookies, appearing on numerous "best-of lists" during 2020-2021. Furthermore, DewPoint's London Pound Cake secured a gold medal in the Sun-Grown category at the 2021 High Times Cannabis Cup, solidifying its reputation as a prominent "dessert strain" in the contemporary cannabis landscape.
