Kay, I just noticed we're missing coffee, definitely not everything goes with coffee lol.
How about cream, vanilla, caramel, sweetener, hazelnut, almond

... praline, chocolate, chocolate raspberry combo, I bet cheesecake would be great, but never tried it. 
Oh, and Cake Batter w brown sugar is great with it!

Chai Tea is fabulous with Vanilla Bean Ice Cream. Haven't gotten the % just right yet, though.

In coffee? I never would have thought of putting those in coffee!
It was an organic coffee. I'd say the cake batter was the largest ingredient, then coffee, few drops of brown sugar. I was going for a sort of espresso flavored dessert without being overpowering. But don't know what the difference might be with artificial coffee flavor.
Ooh, and english toffee and coffee! Never tried that mixing, but I use english toffee creamer in my coffee and it rocks. Ok, I'm officially out of ideas for coffee.
CD, I bet you have some tasty flavor pairing results that you have tried. Share please.
I have found out that ANY fruit flavor goes great with Circus Cotton Candy. Raspberry and Mountain Dew flavor make a great "blue dew" , mixing any fruit flavors with bubblegum tastes like fruit bubble gum lol, I mixed hickory smoke with RY4 and almond and came out with a really good tobacco flavor. If I think of any more I will try to add them.
Couple of pairing questions. Has anyone tried pairing coffee with Berry flavors such as Blueberry or Blackberry? What is the real taste differance between coaco flavor and chocolate flavor. I wanted to mix up some coffee with a dark chacolate flavor.
I haven't in vaping, but there's some awesome Raspberry coffees and Raspberry Mocha Coffees in the real world, so guessing it'll be a good combo if you like those flavors together. I love blackberry, so let us know if you mix it with coffee flavors well.
I just made some blackberry champagne in it's pretty good. The champagne sorta dries your mouth out but for flavor its worth trying, Used PA flavorings
I agree, champagne can feel drying to me too. I don't like to use a lot of it. Others love it.
Blackberry (TPA) to me is a strong one. Very little needed in most mixes I have tried it with. JMO.

Wish the champagne was sweeter. I did really like the strawberry champagne I made, I added some circus cotton candy and damn......nice and sweet
The raspberry coffee and Blackberry coffee sounds like my first two choices. I'll give these a try since I like both of those berry flavors and coffee flavor.
Anyone have any flavor pairing ideas for Bilberry?
ETA: In searching online about bilberry...I came up with Raisin and Banana as flavors that Bilberry pairs well with (in wines).
ETA 2: elderberry, fig, and apple...
list updated below with Bilberry, and Mangosteen.
