At a glance
Valhalla Confections is a cannabis-edibles brand owned within TerrAscend's portfolio and known for soft lozenges and gummies. It originated in California and now appears in several TerrAscend markets through state-specific manufacturing. Its current identity is an operating brand inside a public multi-state company, not an independent confectioner.
Origins and early history
Independent 2017 coverage says Valhalla had finalized a strain-oriented gummy recipe by June 2015. Public business records and profiles have associated Drew Bulfer with co-founding and leading the original company, but TerrAscend's current pages do not foreground the founding team. The founder attribution is therefore historical, not a claim about present management.
TerrAscend acquisition
On June 6, 2019, TerrAscend closed transactions covering The Apothecarium's California operations, two planned retail sites and Valhalla. The release described $36.8 million in cash plus share consideration for the broader package. Later SEC filings confirm Valhalla as a TerrAscend-owned premium-edibles business and explain that the acquisition occurred with the Apothecarium group.
Current products
The brand page lists soft lozenges in Blue Raspberry, Orange, Sour Watermelon, Green Apple, Strawberry Lemonade, Grape and Pineapple. Market menus also include higher-dose and RSO formats where local rules allow. Indica, sativa and hybrid labels are merchandising categories and do not guarantee a uniform individual response.
Dosing and formulation
Valhalla emphasizes consistent dosing, flavor and fast action. A 2021 New Jersey launch described gluten-free soft lozenges made with THC oil, terpenes and cannabinoids. Exact milligrams, ingredients, allergens and extraction inputs differ by product and state; only the package and batch record should govern consumption.
Markets and retail access
TerrAscend's locator shows Valhalla through dispensaries in markets such as Maryland, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, with historical roots in California. The 2021 East Coast launch began at Apothecarium New Jersey stores. In its full-year 2025 results, TerrAscend reported Valhalla ranked third among Pennsylvania edibles, citing an external market dataset.
Growth and achievements
TerrAscend reported 54% sequential Valhalla growth after launching one of Pennsylvania's first 100 mg edibles in early 2024. That is a company-reported operating result, not an award. The brand's longer achievement is surviving the transition from a California craft gummy maker to a multi-state portfolio line while retaining a recognizable flavor system.
Safety and verification
Edibles can have delayed onset and long duration. Start with a low dose, wait before consuming more, never drive impaired and keep packages locked away from children. Confirm the state-licensed producer and batch because the same Valhalla name can represent different local manufacturing operations and dose rules.
