# Wedding Cake
Wedding Cake (sometimes called Pink Cookies in overlapping naming) is a dessert-leaning hybrid that surged in the late 2010s. Dense frosting-like resin and sweet dough aromatics placed it firmly in the Cookies-era consumer vocabulary even when exact parents differ by breeder story. Cake became a naming engine almost as quickly as Cookies and Gelato had before it, which means the retail label alone is not enough to identify a cut.
A widely published parentage lists Triangle Kush × Animal Mints. Records conflict with other tellings that emphasize Cookies or Cherry Pie adjacency. This library notes the common Triangle Kush × Animal Mints report and keeps disputed alternate trees marked carefully rather than merging them into one false pedigree. Overlapping Pink Cookies naming is another reason to read labels slowly and ask which cut a cultivator actually ran.
Why it mattered: Wedding Cake became a bridge between Kush structure and confectionery aroma, and a parent for popular follow-ons that kept bakery branding on menus. Live Cookies-family neighbors include [GSC](/strain/gsc), [Animal Cookies](/strain/animal-cookies), [Gelato](/strain/gelato), [Do-Si-Dos](/strain/do-si-dos), and [Wedding Crasher](/strain/wedding-crasher) (commonly discussed as Wedding Cake × [Purple Punch](/strain/purple-punch)).

Triangle Kush talk also keeps Wedding Cake adjacent to the wider [OG Kush](/strain/og-kush) family conversation without collapsing Cake into a simple OG cut.
