I never got the premium because it's a "kitchen" flavor for cooking, not vaping, and it contains some undesirable ingredients. ;)
It does not say anything about being a kitchen flavor but it does say this "Product may contain traces of diacetyl"
Not that that ever stopped me

    No idea. Never heard of FA Flavor Creative Custard. Sorry.

    Flavor creative is FA that is private labeled by Chefs. It's the same thing but usually a little cheaper for some reason.

    OK> Just went to the site. I see what I did. There is a choice of Flavor Creative Custard and Flavor Creative Custard Premium. I bought the wrong one :ohmy::ohmy:DRATS

    Premium is a cooking flavor--at least it used to be. You may want to read this:
    FlavourArt's Custard Premium is GOLD (Hard to Get, Yet Very Valuable) | DIY OR DIE Vaping

    I use and love the regular FA Custard. It's great as a single flavor, also wonderful with extra lemon, lime, and all kinds of fruit, or bakery good, if you like those.

    From HIC's flavor notes:

    "FA Custard: If you are looking for an American vanilla pudding flavor, read my notes on FA's Vienna Cream, Catalan Cream, and all three FA Vanilla flavors. FA Custard is a true custard flavor, the chefs’ version made by cooking egg yolks, sugar, milk/cream, and vanilla into a thickened cream. FA is an Italian company, so they've included lemon zest as an Italian chef would. This is a bright, sweet, lemony-vanilla cream. Use Custard with your favorite fruits to make them creamy. The vanilla accents all fruit flavors, and the lemon complements most. If you enjoy vaping fresh fruit flavors, you need FA Custard. Gelato is Italian ice cream that begins with cooked custard. Simply adding FA Custard to your favorite FA fresh fruit flavors can give you authentic Italian gelato flavor. The stronger the fruit flavor is, the higher the ratio of Custard to fruit. If a (real food) recipe begins with egg yolks, milk/cream, and sugar stirred together over heat, then the vape equivalent needs FA Custard. You'll find it's the beginning of many cooked candies, ice cream, cakes, pies/tarts, etc. You can use Custard along with Vienna Cream to minimize the lemon flavor."

    ok read up a bit and it is considered the kitchen line, for baking and such, due to the diacetyl. Thanks Katya.

    Am I the only one here afraid of diacetyl? :lol: :blush::facepalm:

    I don't use that much of it. I'm not afraid of it. I've been using out of the same 30ml bottle for a long time now. I don't have a lot of recipes that include it.

    I have the FA regular custard and it looks like your big bottle.

    I am so burned out. Just applied at the marketplace insurance since I qualify. I don't have a secure job It's a PRN job and considered a no benefit job. I think this will work for me considering my health problems and such. I'm going to wait till Friday to pay for it. My bank said things might be slow due to the impact of power outages, etc. I'm in WI but they must use some services where power is out. They sent out a email this morning.

    Just 2 Solos, and 1 Asmodus Lustro. All of them have USB I've just have never used that function. The regular USB cable I have (not USB C) probably has .5 amp charging, so might be fine for the solos. I probably wouldn't charge up the lustro, which requires USB C. I have a C cable but it's high amperage. What's the worst that could happen though? Does it harm the mod, or the batteries, or both?
    I have used the USB to charge my Solos and have not noted any problems doing it. I would suggest you use a low output wall-wart.

    Hi, all. I'm still with electricity and water on day 3 of this freeze in. My mom, whose on rolling blackouts, pointed out that I live on the same side of town as the hospital, which may be why I haven't lost power. Of course if the grid fails...BOOM BOOM Out go the lights!

    I'm going to be lazy (again) today, but this evening I'll bundle up and walk to church for Ash Wednesday mass.
    It has been my experience that Hospitals, Fire Departments, and Police Stations are the priorities when there is a power outage. So if you live near one of the above you will have power restored quicker.

    With all the rolling power outages and/or many people with no electricity at all for days...I'll bet there will be quite a few generators bought by people who've never thought of getting 1 before.
    Living in Tornado Alley, having power is a priority for me. I have a small generator I can use in an emergency. In the spring I can power the air conditioning and the fridge. In the winter the heater and fridge. I have a gas stove so I can have all my comforts during an emergency. I keep at least 5 gallons of gas on hand just for the generator. I swap the gas out during grass cutting season and I use a fuel stabilizer to keep the gas fresh.

    I have two bottles labeled so hopefully I can mix soon. Thinking of reworking one recipe just a bit.
    Hi @FranC, I wanted to thank you for your "Cream Base" recipe. I am using it as just a stand-alone vape and really enjoying it. Yes, I have more steeping in the cupboard.

    Am I the only one here afraid of diacetyl? :lol: :blush::facepalm:
    No, you are not alone.

    Good afternoon, all. Nothing planned for today. I'm just sitting here looking out the window and reading up on things online. It must be true because I read it on the internet. l took the dog out for her to do her morning ritual and couldn't find the cardboard and birdseed I had put out a couple of days ago. I texted my daughter and asked her if she had picked it up, she hadn't. I went back outside and found it under 2" of snow. I also discovered that I hadn't cleaned the gutters. I had a 4-foot ice-sickle hanging down the gutter. I'm going to put that on the "be productive" list.
    I hope everyone has a good day. Stay safe and well.

    I don't believe I have a Cream Base.

    I love creams but cream bases aren't really my thing. With that said I will share a very surprising test recipe with you. It is a simple one. @Zazie

    Creamed Coffee
    White Coffee 6%
    Fresh Cream 1%






    No idea why I like this but I do. It doesn't have much coffee taste, more like a creamy coffee or whatnot. I've been vaping my test recipe in a Sceptre and it's very smooth.
