How much of the edible market gummies hold
1. Gummies are 89% of edible sales in Ohio
In Headset's Ohio retail panel for the 12 months ending March 2026, gummies accounted for 89% of edible sales and chocolate for 7%. Ohio edibles cleared $139 million over that period, up 35%.
2. Gummies are 88.6% of edible dollars in Colorado
Headset's 2026 Colorado deep dive says the category is "heavily concentrated in gummies at 88.6% of dollars". Edibles are 13.9% of Colorado sales, against 11.9% nationally, but the Colorado category fell 8.1% year over year.
3. In 2023, gummies were 69% of edible dollars across 13 states
BDSA found gummies made up 69% of edible dollar sales from January to April 2023 across Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, New York and Oregon. That was 10% of all cannabis dollar sales in those markets.
4. In 2021, gummy candy was 89% of candy edibles
BDSA's full-year 2021 tracking across 12 states put candy at 71% of edible dollars, and gummies at 89% of candy. That works out to roughly 63% of all edible dollars (our math). The rise to 69% in 2023 and to 88–89% in Ohio and Colorado today shows the shift. These come from different panels and years, so read them as a trend, not one series.
Market size and fast-acting gummies
5. The U.S. gummy market is about $2.57 billion
The 2025 Edibles Premiumization Report from BDSA and Azuca puts the U.S. gummy market at $2.57 billion. MJBizDaily's write-up of the same study rounds it to $2.6 billion. Azuca sells fast-acting technology and commissioned the study, so weigh the framing accordingly. The sales figures are BDSA's.
6. Fast-acting gummies are about 3% of gummy sales
Fast-acting products account for about $74 million, or 3%, of the gummy market, per the same BDSA analysis.
7. Fast-acting gummies sell at a 31% higher price
Shoppers paid a 31% higher original price and a 39% higher sell-through price for fast-acting gummies than the average of all other 100mg THC gummy types. BDSA's data also shows fast-acting SKUs are discounted the least.
8. They move 4–5× more sales per SKU
Fast-acting products generate 4–5× more sales per SKU than non-mood-specific gummies. For brands that carry them, about half of sales come from fast-acting products. Baskets with one fast-acting SKU are 6× more likely to include another. Wana Quick, about $26 for 100mg in our catalog, is a fast-acting line built on Azuca's technology. See our best Wana gummies guide.
Who eats gummies
9. 49% of consumers had a gummy in the past six months
In BDSA's 2023 consumer surveys, 49% of consumers across adult-use and medical states said they had eaten a gummy edible in the past six months, up 2.8 points since fall 2022. That beat flower, at 47%, even though flower dollar sales were four times gummy sales.
10. 72% of edible consumers eat gummies, and 47% prefer them
Among past-six-month edible consumers, 72% had eaten gummies and nearly half (47%) named gummies their preferred form. The top reasons were ease of use (36%) and taste or flavor options (34%).
11. Edible spending skews older and more female
Headset says women drive 42% of edible dollars, compared with 32% of flower and 34% of vapor pens. Baby Boomers and Gen X together make up more than half of edible spending.
What a gummy pack costs
12. A 100mg gummy pack runs $8 in Oregon and $25 in New York
CannaiQ's scan of public dispensary menus puts the typical shelf price of a 100mg gummy at $8 in Oregon, $16 in California and $25 in New York. In Michigan, the most common gummy listing is a 200mg pack at a typical $5. These are menu listings, not completed sales.
13. Edible prices fell about 6%, the steepest drop of any category
Across Headset's U.S. markets, edibles average about $11 per item, usually a 100mg pack of ten 10mg gummies, or roughly $1 per 10mg serving. Average edible prices fell about 6% year over year.
| Our catalog (100mg THC) | Pieces | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Wyld Marionberry Indica | 10 × 10mg | ~$25 |
| Kiva Camino Midnight Blueberry | 20 × 5mg | ~$24 |
| Wana Quick Fast-Acting | 10 × 10mg | ~$26 |

Formulas, brands and the hemp rule
14. Multi-cannabinoid edibles hold 44.3% of Colorado sales and are growing
In Colorado, THC-only edibles are 55.7% of category sales but fell 14.1%. Multi-cannabinoid formulas grew 0.7% to 44.3%, against 52.2% in Washington. The biggest additions by sales were CBN ($19.6M), CBG ($10.5M) and CBD ($9.7M). CBD alone fell 10.6%.
15. Hemp THC gummies face a 0.4mg-per-container cap on December 11, 2026
Congress's November 2025 hemp redefinition caps final hemp-derived cannabinoid products at 0.4mg total THC per container. The change was due November 12, 2026, but H.R. 6500, signed September 2, 2026, pushed the total-THC standard and per-container cap to December 11, 2026. The synthetic-cannabinoid ban still starts November 12. For scale, a single 10mg gummy holds 25 times the 0.4mg container cap (our math). State-licensed dispensary gummies are regulated as marijuana under state law, not as hemp.
Brands: Headset says Wyld alone takes roughly 15% of U.S. edible sales. By shelf presence, CannaiQ counts Wyld on 3,956 dispensary menus in 26 states, ahead of Good Tide (2,493) and Wana (2,192). Product picks: best THC gummies, best edibles and best Wana gummies.
