essential flavorings

[shanobi187]

Hi all, I had a question about your most used flavors. I'm just beggining my DIY mixes and as of yet only have a few flavors that I ordered to start with. I'm just about ready to order some more and thought it couldn't hurt to ask if there are certain flavorings that are used most often in lots of different recipes. I know this boils down to personal taste in most cases but things like EM are used by a lot of people. it's these kind of flavorings that i'm interested in getting first. For example some type of breading or croissant flavor for bakery type juices. Any suggestions are welcome, and thanks in advance!

The FlavourArt "Cookie" flavor is very buttery and smells like fresh baked bread! It doesn't taste like cookie to me but I'm going to keep trying to add stuff to it and make something vapable

Excellent thread idea! I'm looking forward to reading the posts.

For me, it's just about half the catalog of vape Haven flavors from FlavourArt (every flavor I've tried so far). They make for a very flavorful tobacco base for all my accentuating flavors. Each flavor has some distinguishing characteristic that compliments different types of other sweet or fruity flavors. The ones I use on a regular basis so far:

-Virginia
-Dark Vapure
-Shade
-Maxboro
-Perique Black

The sweetners are a must have in my book. The EM is easier if you buy it premixed (Cotton Candy Flavor) and the Flavor Apprentice sweetner is Sucralose. I find I like the EM in tobacco based sauces and the sweetner in bakery, coffee and fruit based juice. I use sweetner sparingly but it does make a world of difference in making flavors "pop". I have had good luck with all flavors and my arsenal is mostly stocked with Flavor Apprentice bought from One Stop DIY. I agree with Silkakc and the FA cookie is a very versitile flavor and can be used to make some good juices. I have collected about 130 different flavors. The only ones I would not buy again are the Loranns Cherry (tastes chemically), Flavor apprentice Cheesecake (smells like bad feet) and the Flavor Apprentice Absinthe (not my cup of tea but the flavor is good). I recently tried the Flavor West stuff (gummi bear and Fruit stripe gum) and these two flavors where spot on. Cappellas also has some nice stuff and the Ch. Fudge brownie, Choc galzed dougnut and Cinnamon danish are al really good. These make mixing a complex juice flavor a little easier since the base flavoring has done all the work for you already. Hope that helps a little

thanks for the replies, i appreciate it. I think i'm going to get some basic flavors like vanilla, cookie, and almond. that way I have some good bases to work with. Then i'll move on to some of the more area specific flavors. thanks for the help all.

I always suggest when starting to DIY, to start mixing single flavors before complicated multi flavor mixes. So I would suggest flavors you like on their own
