Cake is hitting different. A hockey stick chart is every founder's dream—but what looks like overnight success often hides expertise built years behind the scenes.

Thriving in California's intense, competitive cannabis market? That’s a different beast altogether.

Pink, chrome, fur—Cake's branding immediately resonates with its target audience. A masterclass in brand authenticity.

This week, we sit down with Chloe Kaleiokalani to discuss the following:

  • How Chloe's vision for Cake became the top vape brand in the country.
  • What is Designer Distillate
  • Playbook for expanding their brand
  • And so much more.

Key Topics Discussed

• CAKE's Origin Story (00:02:55)

• Started as cannabis growers

• Transitioned to extraction and vape production

• Launched brand in 2020

• Branding and Marketing Strategy (00:08:05)

• Unique pink branding

• Targeting festival and EDM culture

• Creating an approachable, fun cannabis experience

• Product Line Expansion (00:14:59)

• Designer Distillate vapes

• Chrome Live Resin

• Upcoming Dab Device

• Plans for flower and pre-roll lines

• Market Expansion (00:28:49)

• Currently in California, Arizona, and soon Nevada

• Careful approach to state-by-state expansion

• Adapting products to local market needs
