Looking for a good, smooth caramel

[jfreitas1]

I have tried a couple caramels and they seem to be very chemically tasting, has anyone had one that is smooth. I have used Flavor West and Loranns, TFA's dulce de leche. About to try tfa's original and after that I guess Capella's and FA would be next. I am trying in small amounts 3-5% and steeping. Any help would be appreciated

TFA Original Caramel is smooth, coffehouse type caramel. INA e-aromat Karmel is spot on caramel, but light.

+1 on TFA Caramel Original but their Caramel Candy tastes of cough medicine, Capella Caramel is very good too, but tastes of burnt rubber to me when it's mixed with anything, I hated the Inawera Caramel, tasted of nothing to me, just that weird Inawera aftertaste you get with some of their flavours, currently experimenting with Flavour Art Caramel, it's not bad but not as nice as TFA imo.

wow I wish I had caramel flavored cough medicine lol. I taste a burnt caramel hard candy flavor from the caramel candy. its not terrible, has a rubbery feel to it but I actually like it sometimes. FA caramel is like the ice cream topping

FA's Caramel is really nice and really matures in a week or two, even as a standalone flavor. I've found that most caramels, like vanillas, need to steep out and meld together. If you're popping them in your atty after a fresh mix, that's probably why you're not liking them all that much.

Capellas can come off really overpowering at first, but like the majority of their flavors, they tend to mellow with time and become less harsh.

Don't know about by itself, but put some TFA caramel into a banana ice cream I was playing with....used 2% caramel, let it steep and that is ALL I can taste.....caramel.!!! It completely overpowered every other ingredient and it's 2% was the "lowest" % in the mix....fyi.

No problem, always try to help. Had it not been for ECF, I probably would have stuck with DIY and never branched out, so it's only right to help where I can!

As for business, doing well - I can't complain . Thanks for asking!

+1 TFA Original Caramel, have not tried FA Caramel yet, but many people say it's good. Use small amounts, I use TFA Original Caramel at no more than 3%, most often at 2% is the best for most my recipes.

Oneonone flavours has best caramels by far compared to any other vendor and I have every vendors caramels , Ono salted caramel , caramel candy and creamy are the best caramels I har ever tried by far only ones I ever use now

I've tried a lot of caramels. I have two favorites... For a smooth, creamy caramel my first choice would be Nature's Flavors Caramel Cream. It's great on its own. My other favorite is FW Caramel Candy. The FW is good, but on its own it's a bit too much for me. I like it more as a mixer in small amounts.

I think I got my NF Caramel Cream from High Desert Ecigs. They have small, sample sized bottles of flavoring, if you're thinking of trying it.

A lot of flavors do not work well on their own. Very few things we eat are single flavor(thank goodness)

Try TFA original + TFA Candy

TFA Candy Caramel and Bavarian Cream work excellent with RY4 Double

We have seen this example with Chocolates over and over - people looking for a Good Chocolate......ummm...chocolate what?

Has someone yet compared TFA Original Caramel to the later TFA Caramel?
