It looks like the UK is going to leave CBD products on the shelf — for now. The Cannabis Trade Association is hoping to keep it that way.

With varying stages of cannabis legalization in the U.S. and Canada — and the proliferation of cannabis-infused edibles in the marketplace — the Professional Manufacturing Confectioners Association recently hosted a science symposium on incorporating cannabis into confectionery and snack products.

Chocolate supplements manufacturer Good Day Chocolate has launched a cannabidiol (CBD) product line that combines Fair Trade chocolate with pure, third party-tested, THC-free CBD.

The Professional Manufacturing Confectioners Association will host a symposium this fall covering all aspects of developing and producing cannabis-infused candy and snacks.

It turns out legal marijuana is great for candy and snack companies — even if they aren’t making edibles.

The Professional Manufacturing Confectioners Association (PMCA) is planning a fall 2019 seminar on challenges with incorporating cannabis into confectionery and snack products.

Two of the three 2019 New Product winners featured cannabis, including the third place Swiss Cannabis Gum and the second place Hemptastic Hemp Bar.

Use of CBD, or cannabidiol, as a food ingredient is getting too big to ignore, but what does that mean for the candy industry?
