BIRTHJAYS® to Launch in Massachusetts Through Exclusive Deal with Northeast Alternatives

Nov 11, 2022

Fall River, Massachusetts (Newsworthy.ai) Friday Nov 11, 2022 @ 3:30 PM Mountain —

The world’s first joint birthday candle, the Birthjay will be available, filled as a ‘Ready to Celebrate’ offering at Northeast Alternatives’ (NEA) Medical/Adult-Use cannabis dispensary in Massachusetts and other local dispensaries carrying NEA products. This license agreement with Birthjays gives NEA exclusive manufacturing and distribution rights to offer filled Birthjays in the state.

Birthjays are one-of-a-kind, smoke-able cake toppers created by adult novelty product company Higher Celebrations, and before securing this filling partnership with NEA, they were only sold as empty cones in smoke shops across the country and online.

“This is how Birthjays were meant to be enjoyed– packed with some of the best flower the market can offer, ready to celebrate whenever you are,” said Michael Scherr, CEO & Founder of Higher Celebrations.

The festive pre-rolled cone is topped with a candlewick and proprietary mote that prevents wax from leaking onto the cone. Lighting up the party with a Birthjay is easy, especially if they are purchased pre-filled with premium cannabis flower. Simply top the joint with the provided candle-wick widget, attach the cake stake to the bottom of the cone, and then place it on top of the dessert of your choice.

Having amassed a staggering 61 awards in cannabis competitions since 2019, NEA is known throughout New England for producing products of the highest quality. As one of the top five producers in the market, NEA’s award-winning flower, edibles, concentrates, vapes, and prerolls can be found in over 150 retail locations in Massachusetts.

Birthjays are available with the buyer’s choice of three strains cultivated in-house by NEA’s growing experts: Tropsanto #7, Ice Cream Man, or Mandarin Cookies. Available strains and price points may vary based on location.

Tropsanto #7 is a hybrid cultivar cross of GMO x Tropicana Cookies. NEA’s pheno takes much of its flavor profile from its Tropicana Cookies lineage, with a sweet doughy taste topped off with fruit notes. Many users claim they enjoy this strain for its impressive terpene profile and euphoric heady effects.

Ice Cream Man is an indica hybrid cross of Jetfuel Gelato x Legend Orange Apricot F2. Many users report a mildly energetic and euphoric high that hits quickly despite its indica lineage. This award-winning strain is a fan-favorite known for its gorgeous looks and unique aroma and flavor, similar to fresh lemon sorbet. This strain is a High Times Cannabis Cup, Harvest Cup, and a NECANN Competition winner.

Mandarin Cookies is Sativa hybrid cross of Ethos Cookie #12 x Mandarin Sunset R1. The Mandarin Cookies’ flavor profile spans doughy, pancake-like notes and savory garlic, mushroom, and gravy flavors. Mandarin Cookies offers a well-balanced, functioning high, and the strain from NEA has taken home two Harvest Cups and the 2nd Prize for THC Flower at the 2021 Commonwealth Cannabis Competition.
