How to Read a Gummy Bag
Every THC gummy bag in Canada leads with a big number, and it is not always the one you need. There are two: milligrams per piece and total milligrams in the bag. They are related by the piece count, and the maths is the whole trick: per piece × pieces = total. A "1000mg" bag with ten pieces is 100mg a gummy. A "1500mg" bag with fifty pieces is 30mg a gummy. Same headline size, completely different product.
The number that decides your experience is the per-piece figure. The number that decides your value is the total. Read both before you compare anything else. On our BC edibles wall every Dripped bag is labelled the same way: 30mg a piece, 50 pieces, 1500mg a bag — so the maths never changes from flavour to flavour.
One habit worth keeping: if a bag only shows the total, find the piece count on the label or the product page before you buy. A big total split across few pieces means each gummy is a serious dose, and that is only good value if you are happy splitting them.
Bag Value: The Cost-Per-Milligram Table
Once you know the total, value is one division: bag price ÷ total mg = cost per mg. It is the only fair way to compare a $30 bag against a $45 bag, because the sticker price says nothing on its own. Here is how the current Dripped lineup works out, using live prices:
| Bag | Price | Total mg | Cost / mg |
|---|---|---|---|
| Blue Raspberry Slices | $30 | 1500 | 2.0¢ |
| Assorted Gummies | $40 | 1500 | 2.7¢ |
| Gummy Worms | $40 | 1500 | 2.7¢ |
| Bulk Assorted Handcrafted | $45 | 1500 | 3.0¢ |
Two things jump out. First, the spread across flavours is small — two to three cents a milligram — so pick by flavour, not by price. Second, the per-piece dose is the same 30mg across the whole line, which means a cheaper bag is not a weaker bag. That is the point of a single line made in one lab: the value comparison stays honest.
Prices move with sales, so check the edibles page for today's numbers. The formula does not change.
Infused, Not Sprayed
This is the part almost no Canadian guide explains, and it matters more than flavour. There are two ways to get THC into a gummy. The good way is to homogenise the extract through the whole batch before it is portioned, so every piece carries the same dose all the way through — half a gummy is half a dose. The cheap way is to make plain candy and spray or coat the surface with extract afterwards, which leaves the dose sitting on the outside and varying piece to piece.
Why it matters: a research letter in JAMA that lab-tested edibles found only about 17% were labelled within 10% of their real THC content — most were under, some were over (reported by the Seattle Times). Label drift like that comes from inconsistent process, and sprayed candy is the easiest way to get it. Dripped gummies are made entirely in-house in our BC lab, dosed at a consistent 30mg per piece with the extract folded in clean — one line, one lab, every batch. No re-labelled white-label candy.
When you are comparing brands, ask one question: is the dose in the gummy, or on it? If the seller can't tell you, that is your answer.
Dripped or Handcrafted?
We run two gummy lines, and the honest answer to "which one" comes down to what you want from the bag, because the dose does not change: both are 30mg a piece, 50 pieces, 1500mg a bag.
Dripped — the candy-first line
Dripped gummies are made entirely in-house in our BC lab and built to taste like the candy they are modelled on first — worms taste like worms, cola bottles like cola bottles, blue raspberry slices like the sour slices you grew up on — with the extract folded in clean so there is no harsh cannabis note fighting the flavour. Each bag is one flavour (or the Assorted mix), and it is the sharpest value on the wall at two to three cents a milligram. If you know the flavour you want and you buy edibles regularly, this is the line.
Handcrafted — the artisanal mixed bag
Handcrafted is our premium line: small-batch artisanal gummies made with top-quality ingredients, packed as ten flavours in one bag. Same 30mg per piece, same 1500mg total, a little more per milligram, and a richer, fuller flavour that suits people who care about the details or want variety without buying five bags. If you are choosing your first bag or sharing, the ten-flavour spread is the easier pick.
Rule of thumb: Dripped for value and a flavour you already love; Handcrafted for variety and the premium chew. Both sit on the edibles page with today's prices.
Formats: Sour, Sweet, Worms, Slices, Colas
Shape is cosmetic. What changes the experience is the coating and the size of the piece, so choose by use rather than by looks.
Sour vs sweet
Sour gummies are the same gummy dusted in sugar and citric or malic acid — sharper flavour, slightly gritty coat, and the sourness does a good job of covering any extract note. Sweet is plain or sugar-sanded and lets the fruit flavour lead. If you are sensitive to cannabis taste, start sour.
Worms, slices, cola bottles
Worms and slices are easy to bite in half for a smaller dose; cola bottles and cubes are single-bite pieces. With a 30mg piece, being able to split cleanly is worth something — a 15mg half is a gentler evening. Our Gummy Worms and fruit slices split well; the assorted bags mix formats so you can find the shape you like before committing to a full bag of it.
Pectin vs gelatin
Gelatin gummies have the classic soft, bouncy chew but soften in heat and are not vegan. Pectin gummies (plant fibre from citrus or apple) have a firmer snap, hold their shape in a warm car, and are vegan. If either matters to you, check the product page for the base — it is not always on the bag front.
Why BC-Made Matters
"BC gummies" has become shorthand across Canada for a reason: the province's edibles scene grew up alongside its flower scene, and the best makers treat gummies as a lab product, not a candy product with THC added. The practical difference is control — the same extract, the same batch process, the same 30mg piece every run. That is what lets a $30 bag and a $45 bag from the same line be compared honestly, and it is what the cost-per-mg table above depends on.
It is also why we keep the whole Dripped line under one roof. We grow the flower, run the extraction and make the gummies ourselves. No middlemen and no white-label candy with our name on it. Newer to edibles? The edibles page covers onset, how long effects last and how to store a bag — this post stays on choosing.
