Cannabis concentrates have taken the cannabis industry by storm, offering consumers potent, flavorful experiences with various forms of extracts. Two of the most popular concentrates today are badder and diamond sauce. While both deliver intense effects, they differ significantly in texture, flavor, potency, and extraction methods. For those new to concentrates or seasoned dabbers looking to broaden their knowledge, understanding the differences between these two can enhance your experience and help you choose the right product for your preferences.
What is Badder?
Badder (also known as budder) is a soft, creamy cannabis concentrate with a smooth, batter-like consistency. Its texture resembles cake batter or butter, hence the name, and it is easy to handle, making it ideal for dabbing or adding to joints and bowls.
Texture: Creamy, smooth, and easy to manipulate.
Color: Typically light yellow or golden in color.
Potency: Badder generally contains high levels of THC, often ranging from 60% to 80%, depending on the strain and extraction process.
Extraction Process: Badder is typically made using a butane hash oil (BHO) extraction method. During the process, cannabis is purged of butane or propane and then whipped to achieve its soft, malleable texture. The whipping process incorporates air, which gives badder its smooth, creamy consistency.
Flavor Profile: The whipping process used in creating badder helps preserve the terpenes, making it one of the most flavorful concentrates. Terpenes, the compounds responsible for cannabis’s aroma and flavor, are retained well, allowing for a robust and rich experience that captures the essence of the cannabis strain.
