I looked up the recipe for the actual pie, and it has lost of corn syrup and sugar, brown sugar and vanilla are common too. I was thinking Pecan, Pie Crust, Brown Sugar, and Vanilla.
Honey might work too, maybe even caramel. At least I have a starting point! I'm a chicken when it comes to experimenting though, this is gonna be fun... >.<

Any idea on percentages to try? The Pie Crust seems strong, so I imagine very little of it is needed, not much vanilla either, it needs to be a muted flavor.
I just ordered the pecan and brown sugar, haven't tried them yet, does anyone know how strong they are?

maybe a little LA Butter ??
to give the brwn sugar and vanilla a little creamy bonding. IDK.
Or a backnote of whipped cream on top....
Pecan pie needs to have a little creaminess/smoothness to it, custard type filling yumminess. IMO. lol.
Good luck with your pie.

Thanks!
So I'll probably need more Brown sugar than anything else. I think if I add vanilla I'll use the Vanilla Bean Ice Cream, that would give it creaminess.

I agree, Vanilla Bean Ice Cream or Vanilla Custard. I tried awhile back but gave up because the Pecan I have doesn't taste much like Pecan. Not sure who makes it. Looking forward to what you come up with. Even if it doesn't taste exactly like Pecan Pie I bet it will be good. Caramel Candy will also add some sweetness.
I would try Praline Pecan, Butterscotch and/or Caramel with just a hint of pie crust.
I thought I saw Praline Pecan, but it may have been this http://eliquidstore.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=45_33&products_id=106 Pralines and Cream by LorAnn.
If I find Praline Pecan I'll let you know.

So here's what I came up with so far:
I made a 5 ml base of 25/75 PG/Vg at 12mg's and added the flavorings at:
3 drops TPA Pecan
6 drops TPA Brown Sugar
3 drops TPA Pie Crust (I will use just 1 or 2 drops next time probably, it's potent!)
4 drops TPA Vanilla Bean Ice Cream
It's a good sweet vape, but I went a little heavy on the Pie Crust and it's overwhelming everything. I'm going to steep it and see if the other flavors come out more later. I may add a drop or 2 of Cotton Candy to add a bit more sweetness since Pecan Pie is inherently super sweet. It is a good start though! I did 25% PG because the added flavors would raise the PG a bit more to my normal 40/60 vape. I also went ahead and added nic because I can tweak it to something else if necessary. I may try adding caramel too.

It's a difficult one, the first time I used it for a strawberry pie and it was all Pie Crust! Still have that one sitting around, think I need to work on tweaking it lol. 3 drops in approximately 5 1/2 ml's is way too much lol. I'm leaning towards 1 now.
The vape is good, I have it speed steeping in hot water, and keep reaching for the bottle to drip more, only I can't find it because it's in the kitchen steeping lol. I think it's a winner even if it isn't exact!
