Cheesecake & Sweetener

[Mr. Tasty Vapor]

I will begin working on the site this evening making some minor changes. The changes will be as follows:

Cheesecake - To date we've had Strawberry and Blueberry Cheesecake as our primary cheesecake flavors. This evening, I'll make the adjustment so the premium flavor will read just "Cheesecake", however, like the Customize Your Own feature, you'll be able to choose One or Two flavors that you'd like your cheesecake to be.

If you want Caramel/Pecan cheesecake, use the drop downs and choose that. If you just want plain cheesecake, "Plain" will be one of those options as well.

Sweetener - To date we've had you include shipping notes that you'd like your flavors sweetened or unsweetened. In all of the e-liquids and Doublers, it will now be a drop down option to sweeten or leave unsweetened. Unsweetened will be the default choice. So if you want sweet, you'll have to choose that. I think that's easier than someone assuming it will automatically be sweet.

I hope these variable will add a little more convenience and versatility to your liquid shopping.

If you can think of anything else that would improve your shopping on the site, please let me know.

Yummy!

That's what I had in mind when I asked for the "dairy" option.

Now I have to go think of all the cheesecake combos I can't afford to buy right now. (You wouldn't believe what it costs to board 2 parrots for 11 days.)

Hmmm OK Geoff with that being said can you tell us how much sweetner you use in say your 30ml bottles you make if you sweeten something.???

 

[Upinthehills]

Oh, I like that. So, for your regular flavors, we don't ask for them to be sweetened unless we want them to be even sweeter, right? We order caramel cheesecake, it will be as sweet as strawberry cheesecake, right? But for, say...watermelon, we'd ask for that to be sweetened? Ok, I guess I'm now confused.

 

[Mr. Tasty Vapor]

Since we measure everything in squirts, would that help you?

lol. It would be two squirts. That's probably around 1.5ml

I imagine this will also open a slew of comments regarding using sweetener, to which I'll just jump the gun and say, If you don't want it, we won't add it. The default option is "Do Not Sweeten".

As for the use of sweetener, let's not forget most of you are switching from something that is KNOWN to kill you and give you cancer, to be quibbling about artificial sweetener.

Allergies is one thing, neurosis is another. (lol)

Let's also keep in mind, the amount of sweetener we use would likely sweeten ONE CUP of coffee. This is in a bottle of liquid that will likely last you two weeks, so you're not getting enough artificial anything to really be concerned about, IMHO.

Here's the question I think a number of us need answered:

If we weren't specifying before, were you defaulting to 'no sweetener' for all flavors?

For example, I love my blueberry cheesecake just how it is. I've never asked for sweetener, but it's pretty darn sweet already. If I order this now and choose 'no sweetener', will it arrive here with the same sweetness I'm used to?

Thanks for the clarification, in advance. ;-)

 

[Upinthehills]

Yes, that's the question I should have asked.

The little rant about artificial sweeteners and neurotics was entertaining, though.

Thank You Geoff, answers my question perfectly, and that little bit of sweetner isnt going to hurt anybody and if there vaping your awesome liguids now and love em I dont think there going to change one thing and please dont you. Also please keep offering your straight sweetner I use it all the time while mixing up my batches of your juice, it works perfct just like it is, JUST DON'T CHANGE ANYTHING PLEASE,!!! hahaah unless it can possibly get any better of course. Oh ya I also just tried your Cherry Cola, OMG is that something or what, your amazing dude just amazing.!!!!!

Thank You
Your the best Geoff

Geoff, I hope my suggestion isn't taken in a bad way, but I say (regarding the sweetener) keep doing what you've been doing. Then, allow the option to OPT-OUT of any sweetener for anyone who may be allergic and/or not care for it, while making that option very clear.

There is simply NO way I could produce the quality of juices you produce, so please understand that my 2 cents is just my opinion as a loyal customer who is tired of seeing people try to change Tasty Vapor.

If it ain't broke...and all that...and I think most of would agree, it ain't broke!

 

[Windsage]

The only question I have is this. I like the carmel popcorn and butter rum just like you have been making them. Is this sweetened or unsweetened? I assume the old recipes are sweetened, but I want to be sure. Sorry for the confusion.

 

[Upinthehills]

From looking at the site it appears we have to ask for any sweetener not just more sweetener. I could be wrong, though.

Geoff has never added any sweetner to ANY of his juices unless he is asked to do so! So if you do not ask (or now choose) to sweeten your juice, you will get what you have always gotten! A lot of us like our juice sweetened up a bit so we ask him to sweeten ours in the comments section when ordering. This is not what you got in your previous orders unless you asked for it. Hope that helps clear things up for you!

THANK YOU GEOFF FOR MAKING IT EASIER FOR US SWEET TOOTH ADDICTS!!!!!!!!!

He has been asked this question before, and the answer is yes. no sweetner is ever added to any liquid unless it is asked for by the customer. He is just making it easier to add it now cause I would imagine a lot of customers are asking!! THANK YOU GEOFF! Much easier now!

Hopefully Geoff can clear this up...seems even more confusing now, lol.

I always thought that requesting "extra sweetener" meant "extra" as in "more." Perhaps I have misunderstood...

 

[Poeia]

While I would agree that the world is not ready for licorice cheesecake, I think you should add Amaretto to the list of available flavors. That (and Chocolate Amaretto) are very common cheesecake flavors.

I vape the Lorrans Licorice a bunch it is so dam good, not recomended because its an oil but OMG is it good, it has to have more strong a flavor than anything I have vaped yet including any menthol flavor, the Lorrans Licorice is just so dam good, beside PA can anyone tell me if they have used another flavoring company to get Licorice and how it is, I would like to find a non oil based that rocks just as much as the Lorrans

This is the Tasty Vapor subforum. They do have a licorice flavor (in the Customize Your Own section) that people who like black licorice have reviewed well.

 

[Mr. Tasty Vapor]

There is nothing confusing, just being overcomplicated here.

Some like their liquids sweet. Some do not.

The system is now updated so that if people want sweetener, they can choose it from a drop down menu instead of asking for it in the shipping notes.

If you do NOT want your liquid sweetened, then you need do NOTHING AT ALL, the system by default will be "Do Not Sweeten". So, if you don't want it, don't touch the menu option and you won't have it!

This is for people who DO WANT sweetener, they will have to change that default to "Yes Sweeten".

It's very simple, very uncomplicated.

To date, the "sweetness" is attributed to a food additive, ethyl maltol. But this only carries so much sweetness and not a REALLY sweet flavor. This is where the sucralose BLEND comes in. If you want it, you can select it in the liquid selection now.

I'm actually working with Linda from Perfumer's Apprentice about the Black Licorice flavor. Lorann's DOES have it, but I'm not fond of it.

I KNOW what the ingredients for old fashioned black licorice are and when the flavor components are all available, I'll have it up as a premium. I just need THREE components, but one of them is damned hard to produce. But we are working on it.
