Paradox and Dolphins are said to be the best.
For me, all Amsterdam edibles are quite weak.
I don't bother with them anymore.
I concur with Shinken here. Amsterdam edibles are pretty much rip-offs. Granted, this was a few years ago, I've tried both Paradox and Dolphins. Paradox had a slice of plastic wrapped cake with a dire warning on top not to eat more than half of it. After eating the whole thing, I got a mild buzz an hour later for about 30 mins, then it was all gone. That was about 7 euros, I think. Dolphins had "space muffins" with a cute blue gummy dolphin to seal up the plastic wrap - about the same price, if memory serves. This was much better than the Paradox cake, and lasted a couple of hours or so - nothing to write home about.
The reason I say this is that I have since had the opportunity to try Cali made gummy bears. Each package is slit into 4 small cubes, each of which has a 25 mg dosage. With these, the effects take about 30 mins to an hour to come on, depending on how full your stomach is, I believe, but the effects are hellacious and last almost 24 hours, for me anyway. You pretty much don't want to plan a day out if you've sucked on one of these.
I also do a milkshake with my leftover ABV, and while it is a tad disgusting to drink, the effects are outrageous with just 2 tablespoons of the ABV - we're talking just about 24 hours, and again, plan on a major Netflix binge after drinking it.
Point being, you get nothing even remotely close in Amsterdam.
FWIW.
