Now, knowing I want to avoid acetoin, can you recomend a cream, sweet cream, or bavarian that you use which doesn't have the custard notes? I'm looking for the rich creaminess, or sweet cream addition to mixes.

None of these have those "custard notes" ingredients:

Flavour Art Vienna Cream is rich, sweet, very creamy, vanilla. 2-3% on its own it's like that vanilla custard in the middle of Boston cream pie. I think this is the one you're looking for. I recommend it highly as a replacement for bavarian cream and vanilla custard flavors.

Flavour Art Fresh Cream is plain cream, no vanilla, no sweetener. I use it to add cream flavor or round out just about any recipe without adding vanilla flavor. Very useful flavor.

Flavour Art Catalan Cream does indeed have a little spice in it, but not much. I taste warm cinnamon with the creamy vanilla. Make sure you're shaking the flavor bottle before you're measuring it out.

Flavour Art Custard also has no custard notes, despite the name. It is a base ingredient to use in recipes. You add the vanilla, caramel, fruit, spice (etc) to get a finished flavor. It's super with a little Rum.

They also have 3 vanillas, each different, each useful. None are creamy; they are like an assortment of tasty vanilla extracts.

And you are correct - you have to check manufacturers' websites. FA separates e-cig and "kitchen magic" flavors and warns against using the later for inhalation. TFA lists known ingredient information on their website. But most resellers DO include the ones with the ingredients you don't want, usually without mentioning it. Most other manufacturers don't disclose this info, if they even know.
