Where To Get Free Baked Goods In Malibu This Weekend

MALIBU, CA — What better way to chill out than over a brownie?

Malibu residents can grab free CBD brownies and blondies on Saturday at Vintage Grocers, located at 30745 Pacific Coast Highway, from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.

The samples come from C.B. Dough, a CBD cookie dough brand founded during the pandemic by sisters Sammy and Maddy Davidoff.

These calming brownie and blondie mixes are new additions to the C.B. Dough lineup. The goodies will be sold in a shelf-stable dry mix that just needs butter, an egg and water to make a relaxing treat. Each brownie and blondie contains around 30 mg of CBD, according to C.B. Dough's website.

The brand in December sampled its CBD cookie dough with free, freshly baked cookies at Vintage Grocers — and on National Cookie Day, no less. C.B. Dough sells its products year round at Vintage Grocers. On the shelf, they sell four flavors of ready-to-bake cookie dough. Each cookie has 15 mg of CBD in it.

What is CBD?

CBD is a cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant that doesn't have any intoxicating effects — that comes from THC, according to Healthline. CBD is most popularly known to help relieve physical pain and anxiety.

CBD is most effective for sleeping anxiety, pain and sleep disorders, according to Harvard Health Publishing, while other marketed uses for CBD are less supported by research and testing.

CBD is a safe product for adults, according to Harvard Health Publishing, though it can cause certain side effects and interact with certain medicines. Harvard Health Publishing recommends checking with a doctor before using CBD.
