Some basic Recipes based off of what you have.

RY4 Double 8%
Caramel 4%
Vanilla Swirl 2%
Bavarian Cream 2.5%

ry4 Double 8%
Acetyl Pyrazine 1% (I'm assuming this is the 5% version from TFA)

Maybe a caramel cheesecake with the Bavarian cream and vanilla swirl thrown in. Whatever you make, keep your flavor mix at 20% or lower to 16% if you sub ohm. Too bad you don't have some Ripe Strawberry, Dragonfruit, and sweet cream, you could make something similar to Dragon's Blood or Sucker Punch

Welcome China_Joe

Sounds like you're on your way to "bakery-style" vapes. The Acetyl Pyrazine - USE SPARINGLY (1%, or merely a few drops per mL) as this can offer up a "corn chip" essence to your mix. I'm not familiar with the Circus Cotton Candy, but I use the regular Cotton Candy to add sweetness, sometimes in lieu of actual sweetener.

I don't mix a lot of tobacco recipes yet (I've been more fruits/vanillas/chocolates/desserts), so without hunting for a specific recipe (rsunderl has offered a bunch of GREAT sites for suggestions) I'd play with something using the Cheesecake, Caramel, a few drops of Brown Sugar (not a sweetener in this case, but an actual flavor - kinda like a caramel or a molasses, but much lighter), a touch of Vanilla Swirl, and either the Dulce de Leche or the Bavarian Cream to enrich the body of the mix.

Get your posts in, and come over to the TFA thread in the DIY section!

Thanks for the quick replies and the warm welcome.

Found this in the TFA threads

Cinnamon Danish - 10%
Cotton Candy - 10%
Bavarian Cream - 6%

Worked out pretty good but I still feel it's missing something.

Maybe add some AP or Cheesecake Graham Crust?

Also thanks for the RY4 recipes they taste great.

+ 1 on RY4 with caramel and vanilla. It's guud.

Question for a newbie...what is the Acetyl Pyrazine? I lean towards fruits/sweet bakery stuffs...would I ever need that one?

 

[China_Joe]

It adds a nuttiness type flavor to your mix.

 

[Hans Wermhat]

It's a bread crust flavor basically. It mixes well with some bakery flavors, but yeah, it tastes like tostitos if you add too much.

 

[Kodak]

Doesn't sound like anything I would probably use/want for now....gonna put it on the future wishlist though! Thanks guys!

I make a Castle Long clone that calls for AP (Acetyl Pyrazine). It's used in very small amounts, but it just adds "something" to the mix. When I first started DIY, I didn't have the AP, but I had Banana Nut Bread. I actually subbed that - it was o.k., but the AP really works much better in this instance.

P.S. Welcome Kodak!

 

[DingerCPA]

@China_Joe - I like "sweeter, creamier" vapes. I'd be inclined to add maybe 3% Vanilla Swirl and possibly even some Sweetener (I use Stevia, but there are other options out there.) Maybe back off the Cotton Candy a couple percent and replace with the combo of Vanilla Swirl and sweetener (no more than 1-2% on the sweetener)

Hmm....okay, maybe I'll order it and give it a shot. I've heard that Castle Long is good stuff!
