I'm with you Shiloh on the fruits & tart flavors. I love sweets in the AM & late PM, but during the day I love fruity & bubbly. So I'd LOVE some good fruit recipes, too.
I will be ordering Sweet Strawberry. In my Cap order that came today I got Harvest Berry, Sweet Tangerine, Apple Pie and Chocolate Raspberry. I've got other fruit flavors from another vendor too. So recipes, estimated %ages, and must haves would be appreciated.

I have now gone through all the flavors from my original purchase several times. The ones I would buy again are Sweet Strawberry, Peanut Butter, Vanilla Custard, Double Chocolate and Fudge Brownie.

I did not care for Popcorn, Butter or Milk Chocolate Toffee. BTW, How do you guys vape sweets all the time? :blink: I get sick if I don't rotate out with a tobacco or something tart.

Anyways, icebob, or whoever has most to say about the fruit flavors, I would like opinions on these other fruits: Harvest Berry, Apricot, Fig, Grape, Pomegranate, Banana, Peaches and Cream, Raspberry and Pina Colada. Any must haves there? I've been using someone else's fruits and want to know if there are any have to haves besides sweet strawberry ?

MY opinion..ymmv
grape...meh. tastes like grape bubblegum
peaches and cream....nasty aftertaste just like every other peach I've tried, but richer and creamier lol!
rasberry is good
cranberry is awesome

That's all I've tried from your fruit list (I know, you didn't ask about cranberry, but it is soooo good- tart and everything)
A fruit LIKE must have is apple pie...honestly. Fantastic alone but mixed with Black Fire it's to die for...

Oh, I'll have to try the Cranberry!! :) I agree, the Apple Pie is to die for!! I don't know how they did it but they got it all in that little bottle, crust and all! LOL

Raspberry is good mixed with Chocolate Fudge Brownie. Peaches & Cream isn't too bad but like you Pattie, I can't find a Peach I love. I've mixed it with Vanilla Cupcake and it was good. I need to try it with Gingerbread maybe.

Newwell, first mix up a test batch of each flavor. That will give you a better idea at what strength you want it. Or you can make a 5mL batch at 10% then if it's not strong enough go up to 15%, then 20%. If it's too much flavor add more of your base. It's so easy to work with that no matter what you do it will still taste like it's name. If you don't like the flavor label it and save it to mix with another flavor.

LMAO @ you..I like that peaches description thank you! You know thats funny you said that about the apple pie-- I just bought the Black Fire and thought what the heck am I am going to add to it it sounds more like a backnote flavor but lately I've been getting more daring add fruits and sweets in with tobacco so thats good to know too.

Ok so I have a cranberry and raspberry on the list---tart is good....:laugh:

OMG trying to keep up with this thread is insane! :lol: We may have to start a Capella's sub forum so we can have threads for each flavor and other Capella's love.

I got my order yesterday. Didn't have much time to play but I had to mix up some bubble gum right away. My first thought was "OMG this is the bubble gum I have been looking for!" Smelled all the rest and they all smell terrific. Compared the smell of the cap spearmint to the TPA spearmint and it smells much smoother and sweeter. I can't wait to play some more, but unfortunately I am losing my taste buds again so I may have to wait a few days to be able to taste anything. :(

Personally I've thought since I first tried Apple Pie that it would be great mixed with tobacco...I have yet to find a 'tobacco' that I like though and have no immediate plans to spend a fortune and eons of time in a 'lab' to find/make one. I am glad I took a chance on Black Fire though...there's no 'tobacco' taste, just a dry smokiness that will compliment lots of stuff...apple being one (I'll think of others...give me time lol!). Tastes great all by itself too when you need a break from sweet :)

Gooddog, try the cranberry 1/2 and 1/2 with apple (I used DV because it's what I have) and you'd swear you're vaping Ocean Spray cranapple! Yuuuuuuum.

I mix my apple pie @ 10% and had some premixed...added the BF @ 3 drops (straight out of the FA bottle) per 5 ml of premixed apple pie. I'm really thinking bumping that up (BF) would be a good thing :)

OK you got me. Just ordered both strawberries, peaches and cream, raspberry, apricot, vanilla cupcake, french vanilla, marshmallow, and a couple of water flavorings. This will be my first DIY efforts, although I've been mixing/diluting premade juices for a while to try and make them vapeable. Is that a word? Anyway, I have everything else I need. Wish me luck!

Just wanted to make clear that I didn't get the water flavors for vaping. I got them for........water! Gotta stay hydrated while I vape.

Everytime I look at this thread it makes me want to order more flavors lol!! Anyways I got my Tart & Sour mix for my fruity flavors. All I can say is WOW!! If you like the Cap fruity stuff you need to have this stuff in it ! LIKE NOW !!! It made my freakin bubble gum so sweet and it also gives the flavor a nice pop. This is a must have IMO as well as the EZSweetz sucralose for the bakery flavors. I feel like He Man when he whips out his sword of power !!

Does anyone have any feedback on Pumpkin Spice and Horchata?

I vape Horchata and love it. At first I wasn't sure I liked it but as soon as I would put it down I wanted more. It's sweet and spicy and a very satisfying vape, plus it packs a good, strong TH. I've been vaping it daily for the last couple of weeks as a standalone flavor (I keep 4-5 different flavors going and change off throughout the day).

Haven't tried the Pumpkin Spice.

I drink a loooot of water, and threw in a bottle of pear for water with one of my orders. Normally a 'straight' water gal with an occasional lemon or other flavor sparkling thrown in, I found this pear very tasty! Ohhhhh...bet it would be fantastic in plain sparkling water!.....

Its not that it sweetens it but it really enhances the flavor so to speak.

Got little time to play! Mixed some popcorn again! this time went higher with the TPA one... initial test is getting there!:
9% TPA popcorn
6% Cap popcorn
2% Cap butter
Will now let it sit a couple days..

Second mix is French toast, just opening the bottle make me want a coffee and some bacon! initial test is awesome! can't wait to try it again in a couple days!:

13% Cap french toast
3% TPA Maple syrup
and 3 drop of EM in 10ml total

And last but not the least Cherry Vanilla coke! Think I got a winner here! gonna be hard to let it sit!:

12% Cap Cherry Cola
2% Cap French Vanilla
2% Koolada

I'm now testing at 50/50 pg/vg and found that the flavors are more "deep"...

Now time to cook dinner!
