Blazed Gummy Challenge
The Blazed Gummy Challenge: How It Works The Blazed Gummy Challenge is the next evolution of Blazed product competitions, built to evaluate one of the fastest-growing segments in the cannabis and hemp-derived market: edibles. Much like our Flower competitions, this challenge is designed to be structured, consistent, and experience-driven, while recognizing that gummies are consumed differently than flower and evaluated with more context around formulation, dosing, and intent.
The Goal The goal of the Blazed Gummy Challenge is simple: To identify the best gummies on the market based on quality, effectiveness, flavor, and overall experience across multiple dosage tiers and formulations.
This is not a popularity contest. It is an evaluation of how well a product performs for its intended audience.
Judging Panel • 5 total judges •
Judges include industry professionals, experienced consumers, and trusted Blazed contributors Because gummies are not blind-tested, judges are aware of brand, dosage, and formulation details.
This allows for more informed evaluations, particularly when it comes to potency accuracy, ingredient quality, and intended use. Each judge scores every entry independently.
Gummy Categories To ensure fair comparisons, gummies are divided into three distinct categories based on potency and formulation.
Low Grade Category: 5–25mg Designed to reflect everyday, approachable gummies. This category focuses on:
• Entry-level and moderate potency products • Gummies intended for casual or newer consumers • Balance, consistency, and overall enjoyability
High Grade Category: 50–100mg Built for experienced consumers who expect stronger, more pronounced effects. This category highlights: • Higher potency formulations • Effect clarity, strength, and duration • How well flavor and texture hold up at higher doses
Mushroom Category: 5–50mg A dedicated category for gummies formulated with mushroom compounds.
This includes: • Functional or psychoactive mushroom formulations • Balance between effects, flavor, and texture • How clearly the product delivers its intended experience Scoring System Each gummy is scored on a 1–5 scale in the following categories:
• Flavor • Texture and Consistency • Potency Accuracy • Effect Quality • Overall Experience
Judges are encouraged to consider how well each gummy delivers on its stated purpose and target consumer. Scores from all five judges are averaged to determine final rankings. Consumption and Evaluation Guidelines To maintain consistency and responsible judging:
• Judges follow standardized dosing guidelines
• Products may be evaluated over multiple sessions
• Judges document onset time, peak effects, and duration
• Adequate spacing between samples is required This approach ensures gummies are evaluated thoughtfully and responsibly. Final Results and Recognition Top-performing gummies in each category will receive:
• Blazed Gummy Challenge recognition • Editorial coverage highlighting standout products
• Industry credibility earned through consistent evaluation Recognition is based on performance, not hype. Why This Matters Gummies have become a primary consumption method for a large segment of cannabis consumers. As the market grows more crowded, thoughtful evaluations matter more than ever.
The Blazed Gummy Challenge exists to spotlight products that execute well, respect the consumer, and deliver on their promises. If you are entering, know this: We are judging the gummy, not the marketing.
