    Good evening. Work was ok. Lots of new work came in today so it’s showing no sign of slowing down.

    Both of the blackberry mixes I tried with my base were a no go. Hopefully the one I have steeping will be better. If I could still get the blackberry crumble one shot then I wouldn’t even bother.
    Why not just buy the premix if you like it a lot? To me, $14 isn't that bad for 60ml. Usually find discounts on top of the regular price.

    Somewhere between here and there
    I was browsing an article about additives on Chemnovatic's site and they name dropped Dinner Lady, though they didn't come right out and say that DL is one of their customers. Chemnovatic does handle things from recipe development on through finished product.
    They might not be the manufacturer for DL products, but if you have any flavors from them or their Molinberry brand that fit the Blackberry Crumble profile then it might not hurt to give them a sniff/taste to see if you recognize anything.

    Thanks! I don’t have a lot of MB and CNV flavors but I’ll definitely check it out.

    My best excuse is that I’m stubborn.

    I read that molinberry was a joint venture between sobucky and CNV since 2014. Perhaps I should look harder at SSA flavors also.

    You're welcome, hitt :)
    It might end up being a dead end but I figured it was worth mentioning.
    I have seen mentioned that some folks believe that CNV Lemon Cream Wafer is in DL Lemon Tart (maybe CNV Lemon as well), so, maybe.
    Wishing you luck!

    The lemon cream wafer is fantastic! You could probably mix it solo.

    It couldn't hurt!
    A deep dive might also involve trying to figure out when the DL liquids were released and what flavorings were available (to the public anyway) by comparing with earliest use in DIY recipes.

    Thanks, I do have a 30ml of that but am pretty sure I've not used it in a mix yet.
    This was a favorite of mine for a long time

    I gotcha but it is on sale right now for $8.30 plus 10% off w/code turkey10 at ejuiceconnect. Don't think the oneshots would be much cheaper but I don't use them so not sure.

    Thanks. The one shot usually sold for around $10 and I could make 150ml from it.

    Thank you, hitt, I hadn't looked at that one before. I'm only missing the CNV Sponge Cake but I do have MB Classic Sponge Cake to try as a sub - thinking it might be close enough from a quick look at the flavor notes.

    This looks good to me, but I don't have sponge cake.
    Would any of these be a decent sub,- Fluffy white cake sc wf,-Yellow cake cap-Red velvet cake sc wf-Custard cake cap?
