Last week, I chatted with Eunice and Aileen of the House of Evil Flower, two badass baked bakers making waves in the Berlin edibles scene with their exquisite underground rosin-infused treats.
Eunice is an American from Chicago living in Berlin. And Aileen is a pastry chef and culinary magician born and raised in Germany. Where art and sugar meets w**d science.

Their creations are exquisite. A Yayoi Kusama-inspired chocolate rose bombe stopped me in my tracks. A white chocolate cream, apricot and elderflower jam, and chocolate brownie encased in a white chocolate shell.
Know before you go. Want to travel and explore Europe’s cannabis scene? Eunice and Aileen share their recommendations for the best spots to find c*nn*bis culture.

Rage Earrings
My collaboration with High On Plants launched last week! I love what Alice and Caroline are doing with their brand to empower people and start conversations around c*nn*bis.
I partnered with them to create a limited edition collection of Rage Earrings to immortalize my Rage Cake story into a wearable piece of jewelry, that can act as a reminder about the healing power of c*nn*bis.
Listen to the podcast episode Rage Cake + Transforming Anger.
C*nn*bis helped shift my mindset to create art instead of getting lost in destructive rage. I hope these earrings will empower you to channel your emotions into art and healing.
Hand-painted white leather leaf earrings are splattered with messy explosive orange, yellow, and hot pink neon paint that glows under black light in large leaf and mini leaf sizes.

“When we heard Christina’s story about how she channeled her rage from a breakup into a beautiful cake, we were so moved and inspired,” Moon said via email. “We were blown away by the results of this collaboration—not only are the colorful earrings beautiful for everyday wear, but under black light, they glow so bright, creating an earring full of duality.”

Best Places to Visit in Europe for C*nn* Tourism
In Europe, flower and hash are the primary forms of consumption and type of c*nn*bis available. Vape pens, edibles, and other forms of consumption that we see here in the U.S. are not as prevalent in Europe… yet.
As a reminder, please respect the locals, culture, customs, and mind your surroundings as well as other people. Keep it low key and don’t be loud or obvious.
Berlin
Legal status: Not legal (yet), but tolerated. Until the new proposed laws pass the final round of parliament in Germany and hopefully take effect on April 1, 2024, finding access to legal weed in Berlin is everywhere and nowhere, unless you know where to look. Good thing we know a couple of rad locals to help you find the best underground sesh.
@evilflower: The city, is an island in itself in the country of Germany. Berlin is a vibrant and exuberant bubble of artistic and intellectual exploration, sexual freedom, and open tolerance of indulgence in all things. The city is electric and their cannabis culture is even more so.
For me, Berlin has the most underrated cannabis culture I have encountered. The cannabis culture is so tightly intertwined with the art and music culture that it is quite hard to separate. My recommendation is to visit during the summertime, have a sunset picnic in one of the many green spaces the city offers, and puff puff the night away. Don't forget to bring snacks!
I recommend traveling to Berlin during the summertime. This is when the city is at its most vibrant.
