I just placed my order with BCF. I ordered HS Italian Cream to use with cheesecakes along with quite a few flavorings. I have never used this before so cannot provide any feedback and purchased it based on this review: Hangsen Italian Cream : DIY_eJuice
I use it in my cheesecake. I have an alternate recipe steeping with mascarpone instead. We’ll see which one wins out, but my bet is on the H it cream. To me, it’s perfect to round out cheesecake

    Bull city orders placed. I couldn't do it on my $25 PP GC so I had to go back and spend another $15. Think I can handle that. 14 flavors total.8 new flavors. Finally got the VT Blueberry Milkshake and Pudding Base. Also got FW Graham,FW White Chocolate,Cap Sugar Cookie,TFA Ruby chocolate,FLV Milk Chocolate and WF Almond cookie.

    No new flavors for me but I'm not complaining. LOL. I think I mislabeled a couple vats. I think I filled up a Siren with peaches and cream and it doesn't taste like it at ALL. I think it's that Sherbert toasted coconut mint one shot flavor or something, but I'm not exactly sure. I would like to know what it is.

    Talked to my sis and Mom for the obligatory thanksgiving call, LOL my sister had a few notes of "forced cheerful" in her voice.

    My mom is a nutball sometimes. She is "slightly gluten intolerant" which is not a thing. At all. Like, it's more of a diet strategy really I always used to get gluten meals because she would be like, "I can have a tiny bit and be okay!" and I would watch her poach, and be totally fine and say n nothing. There are better diet strategies IMHO and also, she's 77 she is not going to LOSE weight without a major surgical intervention.

    So I fully expected her to be onboard with my "Soy" solution I mean if ANYONE should be... it's her. Instead she went on and on about pre-menopausal bleeding and stuff and how like, I needed to get (she is an acupuncturist and at one point when to China for a summer to study Chinese herbology) this Chinese herb that "instantly stops catastrophic bleeding."

    When I was like, "Okay ma but like what is it's mechanism of action and how will it interact with my other meds?"

    She said, "Oh, Anna,, it's totally fine. It's so safe actual US vets are using it on animals."

    I wrote it down. I don't plan on getting any. I am not a dog, plus I bet most animals "US vets are using it on" are not also bipolar and on a bunch of other meds. She made it sound like it should be in First Aid kits everywhere, etc., but I was like, "I am not convinced."

    I'm okay with some supplements buy my feeling is, "Chinese medicine, US medicine, for the most part just stick to ONE and don't like intermingle them it's bad enough."

    I told her I would, but frankly I just did is because she is my mommy and she worries. But, I don't see why I should take medical advice from someone who just IGNORED 2 weeks of heart palpitations. I mean, I got to a DOCTOR (albeit a crappy one) in like 3 DAYS, and I'm WORKING and I didn't have any PTO etc.

    I am waiting for my dicodes and also wondering what atomizer is worthy of being on it. This is a dangerous line of thought, so I may just sit and admire it for a few weeks while I decide what if anything to get. There's some good not to crazy expensive MTL RTAs on the horizon ATM. I am gonna take my time with this one.

    A couple of questions — how much of the HS Italian Cream do you add to your cheesecakes and who makes the Mascapone?

    I got almond cookie too! I better start digging now for the recipe that caused it to land on The List. Still covered up with family, so no mixing until they go home. The boys immediately hit up the closet stash for setups to borrow for the visit. Gin and tonic was the huge hit of the night with them. I’ll be mixing up a big bottle of it Monday, I’m all out :(

    I think H ic is at 1.5%... @FranC can correct me. My recipe book isn’t where I can get to it right now

    UGH!!! — unfortunately for me I cannot vape any of the WF SC flavors. Hopefully the HS will work out. Thanks.
    I really like it. It “finished” the cheesecake recipe, at least to my taste buds, ymmv. I also add a touch of greek yogurt to some cheesecake recipes, but I like the “tart” it adds. If you don’t like unflavored greek yogurt irl, I’d skip that one.

    You all did a bad thing posting all those great comments about the WF Hazelnuts & Cream, that got me to try it. :)

    Have bought the 30mL size and then the 4oz. size since then. But...since its been giving my OSDIY Caramel Latte (my ADV for 2+ years), a fight for its position...I broke down this time and bought the 16oz. size of H&C from BCF. Already have 16oz. of OSDIY's Lucky Shot + several 4oz. bottles of their Lotta Latte, to make the CL. I figured I wanted enough of the flavorings it takes to make my 2 most favorite eliquids for 3-4 years each, at least.

    Meanwhile, probably 90% of my other 170+ flavorings just sort of sit there, waiting for me to do something with them. :rolleyes: Yep, this rabbit hole has been travelled down now...as far as I intend to go.
