Can I get opinions on the eggyist custard?
I've got the same recipe going with CAP Custard V1, almost forgot about it. I'll have to try it tonight.
Earlier today I pulled out a bottle of Mangosteen Cream I mixed on Sept. 22. I think this might be one of those subjective tastes type of flavors, but I like it quite a bit. Exotic 
I'm going to remix this soon with a 0.5% more Mangosteen and 1% less Vienna Cream. I stole it from ELR.
Mangosteen Cream V1 -
3% Mangosteen FA
1.5% Cotton Candy (EM 10%) TPA
3% Sweet Cream CAP
5% Vienna Cream FA

I love lemon curd and make it yearly. We grow meyer lemons, which are sweeter and less tart/zesty than a regular lemon. I think this flavor matches that meyer lemon curd profile. I just like a little more bite to my citrus. I also like a little more forward “crust”. I can see people liking it as is, but for my tastes it needed a little filling out
For my palate; FA Custard, and CAP Vanilla Custard (v1), would be the two I would consider.
I am (personally) not a huge fan of the CAP, as I am one of those folks who gets a peppery note from it. That becomes a deal-breaker for custard centered mixes for my tastes. When it is used only as a supporting note (mostly for texture), and the primary flavors are dominant enough, I don't mind CAP's inclusion.
So, for my personal tastes (when I am wanting a heavier, more eggy, custard), I usually start with FA Custard. It does have a slight lemon citrus hint to it. But, I find it quite light, and useful for "brightening" many fruit flavors... and then disappearing into the background. I know you are not a fan of lemon; and if you are hypersensitive to it, keep the percentage to a minimum (or start with the CAP).
If I want a r e a l l y bland custard (minimal vanilla, and no lemon); I find a combination of INW Custard (in the ballpark of 4%), and just a touch of Meringue (either FA or TFA; at only 0.25%) will give me an eggy, though somewhat lighter than either CAP or FA, custard... that can be included in just about anything.
As always; YMMV.
Too long...LOL. I steeped ceecee's Vanilla Custard Base for months because I was sure it was too sweet. Once I tried it I found it wasn't that sweet and I added 2% Raspberry PUR. Only let that steep a couple days. Needs more,but it's good.How long do you steep for?

I do have all those. I will try the FA.
I trying to recreate a food cake and I'm failing badly but my recipe is starting to look good anyway....LOL
Soooo,any mixing plans today folks? Hubs has an early morning session today and when we get home I have to bring in some firewood. After that I hope to finish a couple recipes and maybe get a mix done. My new mix drawer section is almost empty. I know I have enough steeped mixes to vape for a very long time but I miss having new mixes to try so I need to move my .....
It’s right at 70* here, tonight will be low 50’s. I’ll give you a laugh.... I already brought in firewood. People here (Himself included) don’t understand THIS is NOT cold. A couple of years ago, front page newspaper picture was of some tourists from Chicago touring in shorts and tshirts. People thought they were crazy. It was freaking high 50’s out! Year before last, it was 81 Christmas Day. I cranked the a/c to 65 and lit the fireplace anyway.Good luck,Mel
You could do a strawberry with kiwi or mango.

you can add koolada or ws-23 @ .25-.50%
FA Kiwi 2-3% (edited bc I found my notes where I reduced it) OR

Then there is passion fruit with guava and orange.

The only thing I mix at more than 10% quantity is this (all TFA):
Ripe Strawberry 5%
Juicy Peach 5%
Mango 5%

This is one of my two all-day vapes. It's a version of the mix that helped me switch to vaping. I asked the lady at the local shop to make it for me.
Most of my juices are one flavor at 5%. I occasionally make it two at 5% each. I have a simple mind.
If I could find my blooming marshmallow, it would be lovely. I know I didn’t finish it, but it’s hiding somewhereYou could do a strawberry with kiwi or mango.

This came highly recommended by a good mixer. I haven’t mixed it yet though.
