I'm having a lot of fun with my renewed interest in mixing. I'm really enjoying some flavors I would have never dreamed about vaping.:):)

Did you mix for a long time b4 losing interest?

    I've been mixing for about 7 years. I'm 100% DIY now. I never lost interest in mixing. Just was in a slump at finding new things to vape.

    I ended up dumping a boat load of flavorings.
    Was going through my flavoring box to see if anything was interesting.


    Mercy !

    Playing in my wishlist. Do I need Pink Guava?

    I have CAP guava and sweet guava but have never tried Pink Guava!! The ones I do have really complete the tropical flavor Ive been wanting for my “summer” recipes.

    My purchase was less about real "preference," and more about local availability. I use the Graham brand "cellulo-cotton" purchased from a local Sally Beauty Supply. It seems (to me) to be the most popular/common/readily available rayon used by the vaping community. A 500' box ran me about $17/tax incl., no shipping, and I had it in hand immediately. That satisfied my need for instant gratification! :D

    (If you do go the Graham/Sally route; be sure you are getting actual rayon. They sell both a cotton version, as well as a crayon version, and it can be kind of hard to tell is some descriptions. The Rayon is not available in the 10' packaging.)

    I have not. I eagerly wait for your impressions. :)

    In my twisted mind; that kinda-sorta makes sense. If "sweet" is the last(?) taste to disappear from our plates; then is would make (some?) sense, that as the other flavors are diminished (from dilution), the sweetness might become more noticeable. :D:confused::confused::D
    I love it, especially since I’m a Sally club member:D Every discount helps! Thank you!

    I hear you!! The steeping process is torture for me lol! I mixed up abt 8 recipes. Several are custards that need time but the others should be snv ‘s so I’ll try them out tomorrow and let ya know if anything is exceptional. Well for me anyways. I’ll admit my tastebuds are not as refined as some of the more experienced mixers here lol!
    Looking forward!:)

    Another thing. I have Pudding Base on my wishlist and really thinking I should dump it. Thoughts?
    I was about to tell you about it. Then realised I don’t have that one but FLV vanilla pudding. (Store bought vanilla pudding cup.) I could've sworn I purchased VTA pudding base at some point but I was wrong. I’m now curios about it too.

    If you're going to get it then I'll wait for your review. Sounds like a plan to me:)

    @Letitia I discovered today that I have TFA Orange Cream. Do I have any good use for it?
    Well Fran not sure, you don't like sweet or cream. I would mix it with some raspberry and mango or maybe raspberry and lime. You might try it in a lemonade or lemon cheesecake. If you have a tart strawberry that would work too.

    Looks like trial and error
