TFA Vanilla Cupcake is pretty good for a cake batter-y flavor too. I just got my 1st bottle of Cap VCV1 yesterday. I have always avoided it in the past because it's on the "naughty list", but I'm trying to clone a flavor for a co-worker. Vanilla Swirl is a staple in my DIY kit though.

I got the DX Vanilla Cupcake (never having tried the original, it's very good in my opinion!), and mixed with some sweet strawberry and some cake batter (actually cake batter DIP, now), OMG, what a great juice! I think there were a few other ingredients in small proportions, but those were the main players (my recipe is in a book upstairs). Of all the juices I've made, I have many favorites, but that strawberry cupcake one might be my favoritest! :D I now have big bottles of all three and I just got a bottle of vanilla swirl on my last order, but haven't used it yet. I can't wait to try it, but I need to use up some of the stuff I've already made or get more empty bottles. I've turned into a MONSTER! LOL!

How does the vanilla custard play in tobacco and fruits.

What percent do you use.

I haven't tried it out yet. I'll mix up a few bottles this weekend. The Vanilla Swirl works pretty well in a RY4 juice though, and it's great for (fruit)'s & Cream type flavors. Works very well with TFA Juicy Peach. I've had commercial juices that use CAP VCV1 before, and it is super tasty in anything that benefits from a vanilla flavor. Creamy and buttery. The VCV2 you post about is the same basic thing, but reformulated to remove the diketones. I haven't tried the V2, but I assume it's just less buttery.

I got the DX Vanilla Cupcake (never having tried the original, it's very good in my opinion!)
Same here. I just neglected to type the DX for some reason. :oops:

I've used the custard with sweet strawberry and it's very good, but I also like to add a bit of graham cracker, just for that sweet "bite" on the back of my tongue. Now that I have the big bottle of custard, however, I'll be mixing it with the other fruits I have as well, like peach and blackberry and mixed berry... YUM.

I don't like tobacco flavors, so I can't tell you how it would work with those.

You can find custards in many many recipes at lower percentages including fruits and tobacco's (no i don't have links but their out there) the Capella's Custard V1 is much much too buttery tasting to me and i get a lead pencil type after taste to it when i tried it in the past .

I like V2 much better and it gets outstanding reviews.

Tobacco and custard is a combination I've not heard suggested but it is intriguing. A recent fave of mine is SoHo ans Meringue, as suggested by the FlavourArt CEO. SoHo and custard? Hmmm ... ya never know! :)

I mix up 120 ml or so 10% Caos VC Custard with my nic base & let 'er steep so I can combine it when this sort of inspiration presents itself, so thanks, Adam!

Caps custard and fruits (particularly strawberry, of course) are quite popular; I don't care for fruity vapes myself but I'm confident someone else will help with suggestions,

Your very welcome and I'm honored that you have become inspired.

Please though do tell how the custardbaccer turns out :)

If it's good let us all know. If it's bad...well...STILL let us know!

I'm going to mid a small 10ml shake and vape of some caps vanilla custard v2 and a tobacco...probly Virginia.

I'm hoping the extreme contrast turns into magic.

It works with food..why wouldn't it work with juice. :)

Cool! Let me know how the custardbaccer turns out for you.

Would it be insane to mix caps vanilla custard v2 and TFA vanilla swirl with some strawberry or would the custard cancel out the swirl

Per the TFA web site the swirl is same as the custard only with the Custard note removed.

Thank you, sir! I was just about to invest in a jug o' this stuff. Since I'm sitting on 240 ml bottle of Caps VC (I'm OK with custard notes), I think I shan't!

Anyone use cheesecake Graham crust with it?

I have done so several times as I like it a lot although I add a coupla other flavorings as well; it's still in the experimental stage. The Cheesecake Graham Crust is just that: Graham Crust as one might use for cheesecake. I can discern no cheesecake flavor in it myself.

Tried the CAP Vanilla Whipped Cream?

I've not tried this either but it sounds like a worthy addition, thank you!
