    I had done a little research before buying a yogurt flavor so I went with FW. It got some good reviews and comparisions, but this was a while back.

    We shall see how it turns out. How long a steep for the mix with the Cap NY CC @2%?

    :)
    I'd give it at least a week.

    Sugar,have you tried a yogurt vape yet or just going to?
    Just going to.....this is the first attempt. It just sounded good to me but if I don't like it, its no big deal. Just a tester. I did make a bottle the way you wrote the recipe also, so not all if lost. LOL

    :)

    Which Carrot Cake was this, Mel? I tried going back to your posts to find it, but I can't. :confused:

    Any raisin flavor coming out? Raisins and Cream Cheese frosting are a MUST in carrot cake for me. ;)
    It’s VTA carrot cake mixed with la cc icing. It’s just now at 5 or 6 days. I’m going to recheck it next weekend. Off the bat the butter cream frosting flavor is to the front. Carrot and maybe a little nutty cake coming behind. Not getting much if any spice, no raisin. Time will tell. I used ceeceeisme’s % for this mix. It’s good, but just feels like it’ll be better settled with a little rest in the closet.

    BCF is in house but don't feel like mixing now.
    Tomorrow is another day. May be a good time to enjoy the ones that are ready to vape. Or maybe just watch a good movie. It is just that kind of day. Its cloudy, kinda dark here and the leaves finally have turned color. Yesterday was in the 70's and bright pleasant day, today is gloomy and in lower 60's. Wish it would make up its mind.....

    :)

    Ok. Ended up doing it both ways so I have 2 testers now. Do you remember the vendor of the yogurt you tried.

    :)

    I used cap creamy yogurt for quite some time and really liked it in the raspberry yogurt recipe I made. Of course, this is coming from the person that likes blueberry milkshake and juicy raspberry.:D

    So, are you willing to share your recipe for the raspberry yogurt?

    :)

    You’re giving me hope about the blueberry milkshake! I use the cap greek yogurt ( I love plain greek yogurt irl though... it’s a love or hate it kind of food)

    Yes, I shared it once before. It's heavy on the cream so you might want to make some adjustments.

    FA Catalan cream 3%
    CAP Creamy yogurt 4%
    TFA DX sweet cream 3%
    TFA Raspberry 4%
    FW Sweet Cream 3%
    TFA Vanilla bean gelato 4%

    I mixed this as a base then added it at whatever percentage I felt like. Back then I was still at around 15%. I haven't tried it since I started using lower percentages of flavor. I still have some mixed that I should try at around 10% or less.

    I think I've said this before but I think the milkshake is too light on the blueberry so I add blueberry wild.

    I only had blueberry extra/ tfa or blueberry/cap. Went with the extra. Don’t remember the reason why :blush:. It’s steeping peacefully in the vape closet.

    Haven't a clue, as it's not in my crates, but

    "Taste. The mangosteen has a hard, purple skin and very flavoursome flesh. The flesh is white, sweet and juicy. The refreshing, sweet taste is reminiscent of banana or peach."

    Personally not a fan of banana, so if it were me, I'd sub a peach or two.
    Throw a bit of strawberry and maybe something vaguely like mint to the description. I get where banana would come in but I think that is downplayed. It doesn't really quite taste like any of those things, almost savory, the fruit may be sweet and I did sweeten my mix so I couldn't say how sweet the flavoring is, leaving it out next time. It's exotic, can't help but describe it that way.
