Dug through my notes and found my old Gooey Butter Cake recipe. This one tastes like a couple of the vendor's versions, but was not what I wanted (I want a more cream cheesey rich one).

5mls of Gooey Butter Cake:
4.2 mls mix of PG/VG/Nic
.45 Capella's Vanilla Cupcake
.20 LorAnne's Bavarian Cream
.10 PerfumersApprentice Cotton Candy
5 drops PerfumersApprentice Sweetener
3 drops Capella Vanilla Custard
2 drops PerfumersApprentice Toasted Marshmallow

It's got to steep! Also, if you are a big fan of Capella's Vanilla Custard (which I am not), feel free to exchange the amounts of the Bavarian Cream for the Vanilla Custard. You do need both ingredients.

I think I may actually have all this stuff! Thanks Sophie...I wonder if adding FF cream cheese to this would help it? I'm thinking maybe a good vanilla too...
I'll report back ;)

Report back for sure. I had a piece of this cake the other day...the vape is missing that cream cheese note.

It makes for a good vanilla base, if anything else.
If FF cream cheese is a fail, just add some cookie or fruit to it.

I am stalking this thread and waiting til we have a winner before I put in an order for the flavors, lol I am just starting DIY, so I get a few flavors here and a few there. But I want to make sure I have the stuff to make gbc. Seems there is alot of difference in opinions on the cream cheese component and the caramel one? Maybe I should get a couple different ones of those. And what should be used as the butter? I would think that would be very important to the balance of it?

Me too. I would love to make a GBC vape. In my opinion Kick bass has the best out of KBV, Vapealicious and MsT's. Although I've only had Ms.T's a couple days so it might get better after steeping. KBV has more of a buttery taste and actually feels like you have just bitten into the real thing. I've also made the real GBC 2ce in the last week. Yes, I said week. It's that good. It's usually gone in 24 hours at my house. :ohmy: It's my favorite dessert and tied with 2 others for my favorite vape. :drool: Being that I know the recipe for the real GBC I would definitely say the vape needs to have cheesecake in it. I don't have the time with 3 kids 3 and under to mess around with a lot of experimenting and mixing so I usually wait til one of you gets a really good recipe and shares it. ;) I think Capellas chessecake would be a great cheesecake to try in it. Can't wait til someone makes a good one. :wub: Please share if you do:)

Like i said im still doing little tweaks to it which can take a couple of weeks. I vape it for sometime while changing things little by little . Only way to make a great recipe is to get used to it. Iv been working on it for a while and its already great but i can improve it even more.Its not easy making a gbc juice thats as good or better then any vendors. Heres where its at now.

Yup lots of flavors needed to make this one . Cost chart above as well. Its actually a little cheaper seeing that most get their capellas in a package deal. Ill make a thread for it when i feel its finished.
