Flavour Art - Single Flavor Percentages

[Heabob]

Ohhhh yeah! Bilberry and lemon are a classic combination, and FA's Bilberry flavor is packed with flavor, very realistic fresh bilberry flavor. (Actual bilberries are stronger flavored than blueberries - more 'wild' tasting, imo.) If you find other brands' blueberry flavors too bland, FA Bilberry belongs on your wish list.

Thanks for that, but already got the Bilberry as I'm kind of a Blueberry hound, and Custard, and Cheesecake, and...
Gonna mix some up asap.

That sounds yummy right there! HIC had recommended the Cheesecake Graham at 3%. I liked it quite a lot, but just a bit ago mixed some of 4% for just a tad more. It's sitting, atm.

...or add 0.5% - 1% FA Meringue for the sweet part, especially with fruit + cream. Good stuff, that.

Ah, FA Meringue used for sweetener just like TFA Marshmallow, thanks, good tip.

Yes, for fruits, FA Meringue is a great sweetener. FA Caramel for coffees, FA Marshmallow to make candies fluffy...

 

[Heabob]

Rummages through flavor cabinet...

Bah!, no FA Marshmallow

Gonna have to make another order soon anyway as I've run out of Blueberry Wild.

I'll definitely mix another batch of cheesecake tonight at maybe 3-4% and maybe like 3-4 drops of coconut cause the tfa coconut extra seems very potent. And I'm thinking maybe a blueberry wild mixed with it. But it seems most people have said you need around 10% of blueberry wild to even taste it?? Any good ideas for a blueberry cheesecake??

I'm working on one now, but I'm using FA bilberry. Not sure how that would translate with the TFA blueberry?

Skip, your TFA cream is probably Sweet Cream. It can be used interchangeably with FA Fresh Cream, at about the same percentage.

Here's inspiration for you to collect some FA flavors.

The first one is refreshing and an easy vape. Easy recipe, too.

LUSCIOUS LEMON CUSTARD
2% FA Custard
1% FA Lemon Sicily
0.5% FA Raspberry

This one is one of my all-time favorites. I make it for friends, too. Very flavorful, complex, and unlike any juice out there. It's a sweet, strong, lemon liqueur mousse:

LIMONCELLO TORRONE PARFAIT
2.25% FA Lemon Sicily
1.5% FA Torrone
1.5% FA Custard
0.75% FA Meringue

There are notes for variations in my blog (click 'Blog Entries' under my avatar on the left) - and probably a few other recipes that use FA Custard.

Torrone is a taste acquired and no doubt rounds this mix out nicely, now I have to put this on my shopping list.. Thanks H.I.C. for this recipe. I love lemonny soury salivary concoctions.

Ya the tfa blueberry is most likely not as strong as the fa bilberry. But I'll try something tonight. Maybe like a 4% cheesecake 7% blueberry and 1% coconut I think might come out delicious

I cannot stand actual torrone candy, but it is an excellent flavor for vape recipes. I have never heard of anyone who didn't like the flavor of FA Torrone. If you get it, try this recipe too: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/blogs/headinclouds/6146-hics-mandarin-nut-torrone-recipe.html That's an excellent flavor, FA Torrone, nothing else like it.

Can anyone please advise me of the best % for the Custard flavour? Also what would bring the flavour out the best RE VG / PG ratio? (I don't want to drop under 50% VG).

Thanks

Phil

I use FA Custard 3-4% standalone, and I vape max VG (all VG except flavorings, water to thin). I use it mostly with fruit flavors, say 2% Custard, 1-2% of the fruit(s), depending on their flavor strength.

Thanks. But I do not have any other (fruit) flavours to mix with it. How is the Custard stand alone? Is it ok alone?

It's not American vanilla custard. Italians make custard differently, and FA Custard tastes like that instead: cream and milk, sugar, egg yolks, a little bit of vanilla, and a hint of lemon. In Italy it's often served poured over fresh fruit or as an ingredient in desserts. I like it fine as a plain flavor, but I like it much more as an ingredient.

What other flavors do you have? My favorite addition is Lemon Sicily, but it's also good with with a touch of Rum and/or vanilla, and it's super added to most bakery-type flavors, great with pie recipes. You might love it plain, too. Try it at 3-4%

I Have:

Uber Menthol, After Dark, Cookie, Chocolate, Marzipan, Tiramisu, Maple Syrup

Perhaps I should mix it with 10% Cookie ?

Phil

 

[HeadInClouds]

Excellent flavors - you can mix with those for sure! A couple quick ideas:

3% Custard with 1% Tiramisu (for very creamy tiramisu; simple recipe but would have great, complex coffee-coco-custard-cake flavor)

2-3% Custard, 0.5% Maple, 0.5% Marzipan (for sweet maple-amaretto custard, mm!)

2% Custard, 2% Cookie, optional 0.5% Marzipan (sweet cookies with amaretto flavor)

Don't go 10% on Cookie! Try it as an ingredient like this first. Add it 1-2% to anything you want to turn into a cookie (After Dark?)

 

[Ambassador]

Thanks for this it REALY helps! I've found I over do it on flavour and have been diluting back my mixes. I will try all your recommendations

 

[Ambassador]

After Dark is I think Chocolate and Mint. It's one of FA's mixed flavours

Yes, I was thinking you might like it turned into a choc-mint cookie. Girl Scouts sell those here - Thin Mint cookies - and they're very popular.
Let us know how your mixing goes - have fun!

 

[Ambassador]

I will. Thanks again for your help!
