What is the best green and/or black tea flavor? And good pastry and cake flavor? I want the pastry type flavoring for making something like a fruit tart and cake flavor just for my sweets/bakery juices in general. I have the vanilla cupcake from TFA and also got sugar cookie from Capella's. I'm thinking about picking up yellow cake from Flavor West as well. Does anyone know if pie crust tastes "crusty" or fried or just kind of a buttery/oily pastry type taste? And does anything that resembles something gelatinous or glutinous? I want to try making a strawberry matcha/green tea mochi ball... if that's even possible to get a flavor like that.

The best cake flavor i have so found so far is Capella's Cake Batter-8%,absolutely deliscious and creamy.Capella's Boston Cream Pie-12% is another of my favorites and a must to keep on hand,my last must on hand is another Capella,Chocolate Glazed Doughnut-9.5%-10%.
I think TFA Green Tea will melt your face if you're looking for a green tea. Capellas cake batter and TFA pie crust is creamy and batter"y". Adding acetyl pyrazine could help gain a more toasted or baked flavor.
What do you mean by melt my face off? Is it super strong or just nasty? I should be getting my stuff today if the tracking info is correct. Also another question while I'm here... should I premix my VG/PG/nic base and add flavoring to it as I see fit? Or use the juice calculator to add exact percentages of stuff (even though I wouldn't know how much of anything I want to begin with). How will I know what % I have if I do it the first way? Like if I mix a 10ml bottle of 70vg/30pg and 12mg nic then add drops of flavoring to it? I
In the first scenario - the final nic percentage will be based on the final percentage of flavoring you add. So let's say at 12mg pre mixed you added 20% flavoring. Now, the flavoring has no nic, so essentially you are diluting it from the 12mg base point. Bringing your nic level to about 10 or 8mg per 10ml.
Best way to handle it is by mixing separately. I prefer 100mg pure nic with a 30/70 blend so that when adding 20% pg flavoring, I'm at an approx 50/50 blend. Take note that my nic is all VG. Add the nic when you start or at the end, no deviation from your initial calculations.
Melting faces is like blowing minds. The TFA green tea is to die for.
Honestly - don't have my recipe book with me but if not mistaken, it should be good around a 2-5%. Also, from my experience, no steeping needed but 24hrs do a lot of magic for liquids.
Good luck and let us know how it goes!
Would like to add the disclaimer that I've never did a green tea stand alone. IMO, it's best as an additive/mixer.

FW yellow cake is actually great in recipes and horrible on its own. Cap cake batter on the other hand is great on its own.

This thread is blowing my mind. I wish I had some of y'all's taste buds! I thought Cap's Cake Batter was one of the most disgusting things I have ever tasted even at 1%. I am envious of the Cake Batter love.
Haha yea well it's good in the right recipe. Yellow cake for example is awful on its on. But add some sugar cookie and cream and you get something great.

Thank you, Lord. I will praise unto thee when I attempt this concoction on the morrow.
As is everything in vaping,all subjective.From your previous post about Cake Batter i am assuming you mixed it at 1% and you said it tasted disgusting,correct??
If you thought it tasted like that at 1% i would recommend not mixing it again as you will/can urge DIY'ers who might like the flavor,to pass on it instead,because of how it tasted to you.

I have Capella sugar cookie and I really like it. Thinking of trying more Capella flavors, I will order vanilla custard and cake batter for next time. The sugar cookie does have that cake-esque flavor and adds some body and smoothness to the lemon cheesecake I'm attempting to make.
I'm pretty sure that whether or not I decide to try it again will have no bearing whatsoever on someone else's decision to try it or not. There are plenty of positive reviews of it here to give a balanced perspective.
