    I found the post I was thinking of. I have a partial screenshot of the recipe. It’s a strawberry recipe that I needed HS cream and FA strawberry for. I have the strawberry coming but will need to order the HS. It doesn’t have the Devon cream or premium custard in it. I really need to record the recipes from the screenshots an get them off my phone.
    The recipe is Custard-The Quickening. Not sure if I changed it yet but I have this

    FA Premium Custard 3.5%
    CCW Devon Cream 1%
    FA Graham Cracker 1.5%
    FA Merique 1%
    NY Cheesecake 4%
    TFA VBIC 1.25%
    FLV Van Pudding 1%

    I'm pretty sure I didn't tweak this yet cause I don't use FA Graham at all.

    I didn’t realize until now but I’m missing something else for the recipe.

    I finally got sick of waiting for my Zeus x from 3avape and filed a complaint with PayPal. It’s been over a month since I placed the order. I know they show it shipped but it hasn’t updated since 3-9. I think it’s lost. Maybe I can at least get my money back. If I’m reading the PayPal service agreement correct, they have 30 days to deliver purchased merchandise. If I ever speak of placing an order with them again, please slap me. I now know why I hadn’t ordered from them in over two years.
    What are you missing?

    I don’t know why but 3avape is really slow to deliver. I’m thinking it might still show up. PayPal is really great @handling various issues though.

    The recipe uses FA Vanilla Ice Cream (Gelato Vaniglia).

    I don’t have FA graham crust or the vanilla ice cream. I looked on bcf but didn’t see the ice cream.

    They have it but they labeled it with the Italian name.
    Gelato Vaniglia-FA

    Maybe try a 10ml with either TFA VBIC or LB Ice Cream

    I don't have nor do I intend to get FA Graham. I will use TFA Graham Clear.

    I just got the Chefs Bienenstich one shot mixed. I went with 19% and mixed 10ml. Hope to get the other two mixed tonight. It's not that I'm busy...just kinda blah.

    In my experience those Chef's one-shots don't need much steeping time at all. I mix Lemon Coconut Cream Cake and vape it right away. :)

    Good to know. Maybe I'll try them after I finish the sft's. I have 6 more to try and some more to mix. In a few days I'll start all over again with the 2nd and final (for most) tries

    @FranC — Some Sweet Rice inspirations. Since rice is a bland taste, the recipes tend to include some type of spice such as cinnamon, bergamot, cardamon, nutmeg, etc. I think you do not like spices. If you do, per HIC’s bergamot is earthy, aromatic orange you may know from Earl Grey tea. Goes well with orange and brandy. Cardamon a sweet, earthy spice related to ginger. If you dislike ginger, you may not like Cardamon.
    Rice Custard w/ Pistachio — pistachio with no spices and no coconut
    Rice of a nation - Cinnamon — with white chocolate, eliminate the cinnamon
    Thrice Pudding Twice — caramel

    I looked at RL recipes for other alternatives:
    Rum and raisins or just raisin, can add almonds or pistachios
    Apricot, can add in brandy, rum or bourbon
    Almond or pistachios

    If I come across other inspirations will let you know. Whatever flavors you use should not require a long steep due to FE Sweet Rice reputation for fading.

    I am vaping Lemondowskii after a seven day steep. It is good and will mix again on occasion. Lemondowskii

    Also tried another new flavor called Yes, We Coconut! If I remix this again, I will drop the sweet coconut and also cut back on the mascarpone to ~1% and call it Yes, We Mango. The mascarpone was a little overpowering for my taste. This was posted on E L R by Hibbadoray.
