Benefits of technology

[0083]Immediately above is a second example of making a baked good with a known amount of medicinal cannabis per unit volume. Here again baking temperatures have been reduced, baking time increased, and a known amount of medicinal cannabis has been added to the recipe providing a baked good with a known amount of medicinal cannabis per unit volume of the baked good.

Problems solved by technology

Other processes have been used to extract Δ9-THC from raw cannabis in uncontrolled ways, some of these processes use toxic materials and others do not; frequently such processes attempt to produce a final product in a single uncontrolled crude step.
In contrast, uncontrolled crude processes that use no toxic chemicals include simply baking cannabis into cookies or bread, or making a tea by steeping cannabis in hot water.
The processes discussed above that rely on temperature simply use temperature yet do not control temperature; if the temperature is too low decarboxylation will be incomplete, if temperatures are too high decarboxylated substances within cannabis will be lost to evaporation.
This is why the “uncontrolled” processes reviewed above that rely on temperature are truly uncontrolled.
Processes discussed above that use toxic or flammable solvents in “uncontrolled” ways rely on saturating available cannabis with the toxic or flammable solvent then filtering oil from plant parts.
For example as the raw cannabis material density varies per unit length of the tube, the solvent's efficiency of reducing cannabis will vary because butane evaporates very quickly; the process simply is not capable of controlling how much solvent contacts a given volume of cannabis before it evaporates; thus the process is uncontrolled in at least this one way.

second embodiment

[0085]In the invention an extract with a known amount of medicinal cannabis is incorporated into a hard candy with a known amount of medicinal cannabis per unit volume of the hard candy. Here again modifications of the process for making a food guarantee that a known amount of medicinal cannabis per unit volume of the food. In this instance an intermediate product or extract is incorporated into candy when it is in a molten state and mixed thoroughly. Care must be taken to keep the temperature of the candy below 157 degrees C. or 315 degrees F. to prevent vaporization of the medicinal cannabis.

[0086]An example of making hard candy by modifying an existing recipe is shown below, first the original ingredients and directions are shown, and then modified ingredients and directions are shown.

Original Hard Candy Ingredients:

[0087]3¾ cups white sugar; 1½ cups light corn syrup; 1 cup water; 1 tablespoon orange, or other flavored extract; ½ teaspoon food coloring (optional); ¼ cup confectio...

third embodiment

[0095]the invention relates to incorporating medicinal cannabis into an ice cream base, an ice cream, or into yogurt. Here again an intermediate product or extract is uniformly blended into an ingredient for a food yielding a known concentration per unit volume of the food. In this instance the food requires refrigeration.

[0096]Three examples follow immediately below are examples of how recipes may be modified to make an ice cream base, ice cream, or yogurt with a known amount of medicinal cannabis per unit volume of the food: The first example shows how a recipe for an ice cream base may be modified to contain a known amount of medicinal cannabis per unit volume of the ice cream base. The second example shows how a recipe for peach ice cream may be modified to contain a known amount of medicinal cannabis per unit volume of the ice cream. The third example shows how a recipe for making yogurt can be modified to make a yogurt with a known amount of medicinal cannabis per unit volume ...

example 2

[0128 of mixing extracts:

[0129]Extract 1: Volume 2 fluid oz comprised of 40% flavonoids & waxy materials: 60% total cannabinoids (95% of total cannabinoids are Δ9-THC, and 5% of total cannabinoids are CBN)

[0130]Extract 2: Volume 4 fluid oz, comprised of 40% flavonoids & waxy materials: 60% total cannabinoids (58% of total cannabinoids are Δ9-THC, and 42% of total cannabinoids are CBN)

[0131]Mixed cannabinoid content: Volume 6 fluid oz; (95*0.33333+58*0.66666) Δ9-THC; (5*0.33333+42*0.66666) CBN=(31.67+38.67) Δ9-THC; (1.66+28) CBN=70.34% Δ9-THC; 29.66% CBN.

[0132]Please note that the extracts do not consist of 100% cannabinoids, in the example above only 60% of the extracts consist of cannabinoids and 40% of the extracts above consist of flavonoids and waxy materials. Please also note that the calculations above have been normalized to a total cannabinoid content of 100%.

[0133]Therefore the total content of the mixed extract in Example 2 are 40% flavonoids and waxy materials; and 60% to...

Abstract

The invention is a product and a process wherein cannabinoids such as Medicinal Δ9-THC and / or other substances associated with medicinal cannabis, including yet not necessarily limited to cannbidiols, cannabigerol are contained or processed into foodstuffs or medicinal compounds in controlled ways and with specific characteristics. First a medicinal substance with a known about of medicinal cannabis is mixed into a foodstuff such that the medicinal cannabis is distributed uniformly in the foodstuff. Foodstuffs consistent with this invention include baked goods, hard candies, ice cream, bases, ice cream, and yogurt. The product is characterized by a controlled amount of cannabinoids per unit volume of the foodstuff. Another provision of the invention is providing controlled amounts or ratios of Δ9-THC as compared to CBD in a foodstuff.
