Description
The Certified Cannabis Edibles Professional is a comprehensive career-preparation textbook for individuals interested in producing safe, consistent, and compliant cannabis-infused foods and beverages. Written in clear, accessible language, it introduces the science, techniques, and professional standards needed to succeed in the rapidly developing cannabis edibles industry while supporting preparation for the Certified Cannabis Edibles Professional (CCEP) credentialing exam.
