Here’s what Redmond shoppers can look forward to in the coming year. 

 
 

Precision Dosing for Consistent Experiences 

One of the biggest trends in 2026 is exact dosing. Consumers want predictable effects without surprises. 

What to Expect: 

  • Pre-measured gummies, chocolates, and beverages with lab-tested THC/CBD content. 

  • Single-serving infused oils or tinctures that simplify cooking at home. 

  • Clear labeling that helps users select products based on desired intensity. 

Pro Tip: Start low and go slow—even with precise dosing, individual tolerance varies. 

 
 

Functional & Wellness-Focused Edibles 

Beyond recreation, edibles are increasingly being designed for wellness. 

Trending Options: 

  • CBD-Forward Gummies: Targeted for relaxation, sleep, or focus. 

  • Adaptogen-Infused Snacks: Combining cannabis with herbs and botanicals for mood and stress support. 

  • Microdosing Options: Low-dose THC edibles for subtle effects that fit into daily routines. 

Mistake to Avoid: Assuming “wellness” means “no psychoactive effect.” Always check the THC content. 

 
 

Culinary Creativity & Gourmet Experiences 

Edibles are moving beyond traditional gummies and brownies. 2026 is shaping up to be a year of culinary exploration. 

Notable Trends: 

  • Cannabis-infused beverages like sparkling waters, teas, and coffee blends. 

  • Savory snacks and meal kits, including infused sauces and dressings. 

  • Vegan, gluten-free, and allergen-conscious options for diverse dietary needs. 

Pro Tip: Pair strain-specific infusions with complementary flavors—like citrusy Super Lemon Haze in sparkling drinks or earthy Wedding Cake in desserts. 

 
 

Sustainable & Transparent Products 

Consumers care about sustainability and transparency more than ever. 

What to Watch For: 

  • Eco-friendly packaging and minimal-waste edibles. 

  • Lab-tested, responsibly sourced ingredients. 

  • Full disclosure on cannabinoids, terpenes, and allergens. 

 
 

Tech & Smart Infusions 

Technology is playing a role in 2026’s edibles trend: 

  • Smart dosing devices for consistent home infusion. 

  • Apps that track intake and effects to help users optimize their experience. 

  • Innovative formats like dissolvable strips or powdered infusions for versatility.
