The Cream Caramel® Family

The Most Awarded Strain from Sweet Seeds®

At Sweet Seeds®, we have always worked with the idea of offering stable strains that are easy to grow and productive, and aromatic profiles capable of leaving a mark on the palate. When we launched Cream Caramel® (SWS04) onto the market, it soon became clear that we were looking at a very special strain.

Over the years, Cream Caramel® not only established itself as one of the most classic and appreciated strains in the Sweet Seeds® catalog, but also as a genetic base of enormous value for the development of new high-quality genetic lines.

Its combination of potency, yield, stability, and organoleptic excellence has given rise to a whole family of strains with personalities of their own, yet united by a very recognizable common thread: a distinctly sweet, caramel-like flavor, dense flowers, and a deeply satisfying effect.

Cream Caramel® Has Been One of Sweet Seeds®’ Most Influential Strains

Cream Caramel® has not only shone on its own merits as the most awarded strain in the Sweet Seeds® catalog, but it has also proven to be an extraordinarily fertile genetic base for the development of new strains.

The remarkable characteristics of this strain made it possible to develop different new strains from it, ranging from top-quality autoflowering versions to ultra-fast hybrids, strains with more pronounced citrus profiles, and CBD-rich versions. Below, we take a look at these wonderful strains and what you can expect from growing each of them.

Strains That Contain Cream Caramel® in Their Genetics

Many years have passed since the arrival of Cream Caramel®, and to this day its imprint remains very present in the Sweet Seeds® genetic collection. From this genetic line, new photoperiod-dependent strains, autoflowering strains, F1 Fast Version® strains, and even CBD-rich lines have been developed. Among the main strains in this family, we find:

• Cream Caramel® (SWS04)
• Cream Caramel Auto® (SWS22)
• Cream Caramel F1 Fast Version® (SWS40)
• Cream 47® (SWS26)

• Cream Mandarine Auto® (SWS29)
• Cream Mandarine XL Auto® (SWS55)
• Sweet Mimosa XL Auto® (SWS94)

Cream Caramel®

Cream Caramel® is one of Sweet Seeds®’ most emblematic classic strains. It results from the cross between Blue Black, Maple Leaf Indica, and White Rhino, a genetic combination that resulted in a predominantly Indica plant, compact, resinous, productive, and with extraordinary organoleptic richness.

It is a highly appreciated genetic line for those looking for plants with a relatively fast flowering time, a robust structure, and dense buds loaded with resin and showing a very uniform growth.

Cream Caramel® offers very sweet, caramel-like aromas and flavors, with an earthy background and nuances reminiscent of humus and gummies. The effect is powerful, relaxing, and very pleasant, while still retaining a cheerful and creative side. Not surprisingly, we are talking about the most awarded strain at Sweet Seeds®, with 27 awards to its name.

The result is an autoflowering strain with great hybrid vigor, fast flowering, short internodal distance, and good production of side branches. Aromatically, it perfectly preserves the spirit of the original Cream Caramel®. Its flowers present a sweet, musky, and earthy perfume, with a clear presence of caramel and wood notes.

Cream Caramel F1 Fast Version®

With Cream Caramel F1 Fast Version®, we brought one of the most beloved strainsin the catalog into an ultra-fast flowering photoperiod-dependent format. This strain is the result of the cross between an elite clone of Cream Caramel® and a selected genetic line of Cream Caramel Auto®.

The plant shows strong hybrid vigor, a mainly Indica structure, and great uniformity in the offspring, something especially valuable for those seeking plant structure consistency and reliable results. The reduction in flowering time without losing the essence of the original genetic line is one of its greatest attractions.

In terms of aroma and flavor, it faithfully preserves the family’s organoleptic signature. Sweet, caramel-like tones predominate, accompanied by earthy nuances inherited from the Blue genetics present in the original Cream Caramel®. Its chemotype features high THC levels and enough CBD to promote deeply relaxing and pleasant states.

Cream 47®

In this strain, the sweet and dense side of Cream Caramel® meets a genetic line of enormous strength and character, resulting in a very complete and high-performing hybrid.

It is a very vigorous plant, with thick, strong stems and branches, capable of producing large, dense buds abundantly covered in resin. Its aromatic profile moves along a sweet and earthy line, with notes of humus, while its effect combines psychoactive potency with a relaxing base.

Cream 47® is another great example of Cream Caramel®’s versatility as a parent. When crossed with a genetic line as well-established as AK 47, it continues to pass on solidity, organoleptic quality, and a great capacity for producing resinous flowers.

Cream Caramel CBD®

Cream Caramel CBD® is the cannabidiol-rich version of one of the most appreciated strains in the Sweet Seeds® catalog.

The plant retains a mainly Indica structure, with a large central bud and good lateral branching. It develops a strong stem and long, flexible secondary branches. It clearly maintains the line’s sweet and caramel-like identity, while also incorporating an earthy background and hints of cypress.
