Just when you thought kratom couldn’t get any better, along came kratom edibles from Happy Hippo. We’ve taken all the great benefits you love about your favorite Happy Hippo products, and turned them into a yummy little gummy that’s more convenient and less bitter than some other traditional kratom products.
Overall, kratom edibles give you a tasty, fun, portable alternative to powders and extracts. But what really makes kratom edibles stand out? We’re here to break it down for you so that you can make informed decisions about whether kratom edibles are right for you and your lifestyle.
What Are Kratom Edibles?
Basically, kratom edibles describe any kratom-infused treat that you take by eating them. Gummies are the most common (and what we currently have on offer here at Happy Hippo). But there are also chocolates, baked goods, and even a few kratom-infused drinks out there.
Why are they becoming so popular? They’re easy to take, they taste great, and they don’t require any prep time or special gear. Open up the tin, bag, or can, and pop one in your mouth. That’s it!
For a lot of our customers who have tried the Happy Hippo edibles, the convenience is a huge factor into why they love them. If you’re traveling or out and about, edibles are a discrete no-mess option that you can toss into a bag or backpack.
And if you’ve ever struggled to get past the naturally bitter taste of kratom, edibles can be infused with flavors that help make your whole experience a lot more enjoyable.
The range of flavors is a huge draw when it comes to these edibles. We currently offer two delicious varieties, but watch this space and you might see more in the near future!
How Edibles Work Compared to Other Forms
Capsules, powders, and liquid kratom extracts all bring their own “personalities.” The experience you have with a capsule will be different from an extract, even if they’re derived from the same strain.
Kratom edibles are no different. And a big part of that has to do with how edibles enter your system. When you eat an edible—surprise!— it first goes through your digestive system. That means that it needs to be somewhat digested before it can enter your bloodstream and start to take effect.
The upshot is that edibles can take longer to kick in. Boooo, you might be thinking. But edibles also tend to offer a longer-lasting and smoother effect than other forms, which can often be worth the wait. It may take anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour for the effects to kick in, and when they do show up they do so gradually. This makes them a favorite for people who want a gentler, more even-headed experience from their kratom, as opposed to those who might enjoy the feeling of a sudden onset of sensations/feelings.
If you’re looking for a bit of power stretched out over a day, edibles are a great choice for kratom.
The Benefits of Kratom Edibles
Now that we’ve gone into some detail about the difference between kratom edibles and other forms, let’s summarize the basic benefits.
Convenience
Edibles are super easy to use. There’s no messy powder, no mixing, no tough-to-swallow capsules. Grab a gummy. Pop it in your mouth. That’s it!
Taste
I think even we can admit that kratom doesn’t have the most naturally delicious flavor. Most of our customers love it despite the taste, not because of it. That’s one of the main reasons we developed our kratom gummies. We wanted to improve the taste so it didn’t get in the way of the overall experience! We’re still tweaking the formula, but we think we’re getting there.
Discretion
Our kratom edibles look like regular gummies or candies. That means you can leave them in your pocket and pop one in whenever you want. You won’t be drawing attention to yourself while you’re traveling or in a social setting.
Lasting Effects
The digestion required with edibles means the effects come on slowly and last longer. That’s just right for a lot of our customers.
Ready-to-Go Servings
With edibles, you know exactly how much kratom you’re taking. You don’t have to worry about preparing the serving yourself.
No Prep Time
No planning required! Kratom edibles are ready when and where you want them, right when you want them.
Perfect for Beginners
Because the effects of edibles are milder and come on more slowly, we think they’re perfect for people who are new to kratom. It’s a great way to “ease in” to the benefits.
Things to Consider
Okay, now let’s wrap up with a few quick possible “downsides” to consider. Really, they’re only downsides if these traits aren’t what you’re looking for in your kratom experience. But they’re worth mentioning, either way.
Slower Onset
If you want to take some kratom and feel the effects fast, edibles probably aren’t for you. Opt for a more concentrated extract that can get to your system quicker.
Milder Effects
If you’re an experienced customer, you might not like the milder effects of edibles. Keep that in mind when shopping.
Cost
Because they’re more convenient and tasty, edibles usually come with a slightly higher price tag relative to their serving than other forms of kratom.
Are Kratom Edibles Right for You?
As you can probably tell, the answer to the question of whether kratom is right for you is: it depends! For some people, the combination of flavor, slow onset, and lasting effects will be just right. For others, it won’t be what you’re looking for. That’s all good! The beautiful thing about kratom is the huge range of varieties, products, and benefits you can get depending on how you take it and your dosage.
Overall, our advice is to at least give our kratom edibles a fair try. If you love them, great—you’ve discovered a new favorite! If they’re not for you, you can go right back to your preferred alternative.
