Looking for ideas with flavorings I have

Not open for further replies.
So I have several flavorings that I ordered, and I have successfully made a couple "almost decent" flavors. I was wondering if anyone had suggestions on which combinations of the flavors I have would make "actually decent" e-juice flavors. I looked for software that might be able to make suggestions, but I couldn't find that so I figured it couldn't hurt to ask the awesome members of ECF!

To be more specific, I am not as interested in what % of flavoring A to mix with flavoring B, but more-so which flavorings will compliment each other. I have been sifting through recipes so long I feel like I need glasses, but it is difficult to find any that use the flavorings that I have. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, and would save me time, and money (as if I had any!!)
I have the following flavorings:

The flavor apprentice Lemon flavor, French Vanilla, Papaya, Banana nut

Loranne
Lemonade, super strength coconut, caramel, pomegranate

(Super concentrated) vaping zone
Cream, Blueberry, Blackberry

Flavorart
RY4, Virginia

ecigexpress
Tobacco Additive, Menthol Signature series

Hangsen
concentrates USA, Red, RED USA, RY4

Other stuff Malic acid, Ethyl Maltol

Can't promise they'll be actually decent-lol

Blackberry and french vanilla, maybe a touch of cream, maybe not
Blackberry lemonade (haven't used LA, be easy with TFA but I don't much like that one)
Blueberry lemonade
RY4 with banana nut, maybe some caramel or french vanilla
pomegranate lemonade
coconut with french vanilla and some cream

No ideas on the rest of the tobaccos.

The best thing is to make 1 flavor mixes so you know what each flavor taste like on it's own before attempting combinations. You then know what each flavor taste like and will then be able to determine what flavors may go well together when combined. For all you know you may have bought a blueberry flavor that you expect to taste like fresh blueberry pie when in fact it taste like grape candy. Then you go to make that blueberry pie with whip cream and go nuts trying to figure out what went wrong. Or you may have bought a cherry flavor to make that wonderful cream cherry sherbert that you expect to taste like a creamy fresh picked cherry desert but instead you may find that it actually tastes more like halls cough drops. If you tasted each flavor individually you would have already known that the blueberry or cherry would not have worked in the mix. what you have to realize is not all flavors are created equal and may not be what you expected for the intended recipe. But on the other hand you may come up with a different recipe that will work with those flavors.

Read my blogs before getting started

then read hoosier's blogs.

then read the stickies at the top of the page.

this will explain a lot of the how's and why's.

If you like the ry4 type flavors, it's usually vanilla and caramel as the main addition. You might try adding a little vanilla and caramel to your other tobaccos. Or, even to your ry4 mixes if you think they need bumping up a little.

If I had those flavors, one of the first things I'd try is the Hangsen ry4 with the FA virginia with a little added vanilla, caramel, and a drop or two of sweetener if you have it. I really like the hangsen ry4, but it's just a little mild for me by itself.
