Key lime is insanely strong.

Apple and coconut are very weak (the coconut smells lovely but tastes weak).

My $0.02 and a word of caution:

In addition to filtering the list of Lorann's for the ones that have oils, based off what I've read here, I found another potential concern on some of them:

Several of the Lorann's flavors have an additional warning on the side of the bottle:

"Avoid contact with mucous membranes"

Now, dunno about your folks but I consider my lungs to be pretty much well into the mucous membranes category.

Flavors I noticed that had this warning were:

Wintergreen
Spearmint
Cinnamon extract

Of the ones they had at the local hobby lobby, I only found these that both DIDN'T have oils listed (i.e. PG, Flavoring & Alcohol only) and DID NOT have the "Avoid contact with mucous membranes" on the label:

Orange, Strawberry and Grape (which I bought)

And a couple others that I didn't.

Just a FYI. Dunno if it has a bearing or not, but I'd rather play safe than sorry.

lewnworx, thanks for the heads up, I'm with you, I think I'll stay away from the ones labeled "avoid contact with Mucus membranes", just to be safe...I ordered a bunch of flavors today, unfortunately, one of them was Cinnamon . I'm also wondering if they are referring to the nostrils, as those flavors seem to be ones that could really burn the nose, throat etc. Anyhow, I'll let everyone know how I like my new flavors. I picked up my first 2 bottles at Hobby Lobby a few weeks ago, along with some Wilton Glycerine. I've been mixing the English Toffee flavoring with Coffee and Cappucino...pretty good stuff! It's all that I've vaped since I got the stuff! I can't wait to start mixing up some new concoctions!

Anyone know how long it generally takes to receive an order?

Maybe I'm being thick or blind but I can't see the warning about mucous membranes anywhere on any of my bottles from the Lorann "Super Strength Flavors (Candy Oils)" section.

Apart from which, they're food flavourings, so when eaten all of them would come in contact with mouths - which are, I believe, mucous membranes.

I may be wrong but the Lorann flavourings that are recommended for use for vaping are from the "Super Strength Flavors (Candy Oils)" in the "Gourmet" section, not from other areas of the site? Are you sure you're buying the right ones and not ones for aromatherapy or fragrance?

I'm gettin ready to start makin my own liquid and I thought I'd bump this up to see if there were any additions to the list.

Also, are the bickford flavors relatively the same in strength?

i've tried the prailines and cream, also the marshmallow; both of which i'd say are "just right" flavor wise, the prailines being the stronger of the two.

on the way i have cotton candy, cinnamon ROLL, cheesecake, champagne, and blueberry- i'll update when they get here

"Avoid contact with mucous membranes". That's straight up flavoring, and because it will burn on sensitive skin. Diluted into a vape juice, probably not a problem, but with cinnamon, some candy is hot and burns, so I would be careful with it.
