Functional and Amanita mushroom gummies are taking off in the wellness and alternative products market. Whether running a smoke shop, wellness boutique, or specialty retail store, you're probably hearing more customers ask: “Do you carry those mushroom gummies?”
This surge in demand has retailers wondering: Are mushroom gummies safe to sell? Are they legal? And what’s the difference between functional mushrooms and Amanita Muscaria?
Let’s break it down so you can stock confidently and stay compliant.

What Are Mushroom Gummies?
Mushroom gummies are edibles infused with either functional mushrooms or Amanita Muscaria—each offering a completely different experience:
-
Functional mushroom gummies (like Lion’s Mane or Chaga) are non-psychoactive and fit into the wellness niche. They are used for cognitive support, energy, immunity, and stress relief.
-
Amanita mushroom gummies contain Amanita muscaria, known for its red cap with white dots. These gummies may offer a light psychoactive experience—often described as dreamy or euphoric—but they are not the same as psilocybin mushrooms.
Are Mushroom Gummies Safe?
When made by credible manufacturers using tested ingredients and proper extraction processes, mushroom gummies are safe for adult use. Here’s what to look for before stocking:
-
3rd-party lab testing (for potency and purity)
-
GMP certification (Good Manufacturing Practices)
-
Transparent dosing on the label
-
No claims of psilocybin or “magic mushrooms”—these are illegal at the federal level.
Note for retailers: While functional mushrooms are widely accepted, Amanita products should be clearly labeled and kept behind the counter or in locked cabinets to prevent confusion.
Are Amanita Gummies Legal?
Yes, in most of the U.S., except Louisiana, which bans the sale and possession of Amanita Muscaria products for anything other than decorative purposes.
Because they don’t contain psilocybin or psilocin, Amanita mushroom gummies are not classified as Schedule I substances. However, keeping up with state-specific laws is essential, as this space evolves.
Why Are Customers Buying Amanita Gummies?
Unlike psilocybin, Amanita affects GABA and glutamate receptors, not serotonin. This leads to effects that are more sedative, introspective, or dream-like rather than psychedelic.
Some customers report:
-
Relaxation or “floating” sensations
-
Enhanced sleep or restfulness
-
A light euphoric mood
-
Gentle body buzzes
Think of Amanita as the legal alternative to the classic "magic mushroom" vibe, without the same intensity.
Why Retailers Are Stocking Mushroom Gummies

High demand from wellness customers, smoke shop regulars, and new alternative product buyers
-

-
