It arrived a couple days ago from sourcemore. I haven't even opened it up yet. I'm hoping to get pictures taken and all three set up tonight since the wife will be gone for about three hours at her Bunco group.
Any sub for flakey pastry, it's the only one I don't have?The last couple days I've been enjoying my new chocolate wafer mix. I vaped this in an RDA and currently have it in an RTA. I vaped this: 12w - 25w in simple wattage mode and then using TC. MTL and RDL.
Creamy Chocolate Wafer
SSA Chocolate Mousse 3%
CAP Wafer Crunch 2.5%
SSA Flakey Pastry 1%
WF Cream Puff 1.5%
SSA Ice Cream 1%
Suggested steep = 30 days / as always... YMMV
I am very impressed with SSA Chocolate Mousse. It is very chocolatey. Color-wise it is very light and similar to VTA CM in color. I was very curious how SSA CM would stack-up to VTA CM. IMO, they are two very different tasting CM's. SSA's leans more towards a milk chocolate while VTA's leans darker but not a true dark chocolate (make sense?).
In my experience, Sobucky Super Aromas chocolates are right up there with VTA's.
IMHO... SSA and VTA chocolates are currently the Top Chocolates for DIY (with one exception... MF DC). The other chocolates (TFA, CAP etc.) are, by far, not in the same league whatsoever.
At first I tried this mix with SSA CM at 2%. It was good and brought a lighter tasting chocolate to the creamy wafer profile. I decided to push SSA chocolate mousse; so I added another 1% (3% total). The extra 1% chocolate mousse took the mix to another level. "Like to a WOW level of chocolate goodness." 3% brought the overall chocolate to what a creamy chocolate wafer should taste like.
CAP Wafer Crunch + SSA Flakey Pastry are a fine combination. Together they make a pleasant tasting soft baked cookie-like wafer that retains both the wafer crunchiness and soft pastry characteristics. WF Cream Puff adds it's own pastry note to the overall bakery profile.
WF Cream Puff is also a really nice tasting cream. I wanted something more for the creaminess aspect. Something that wasn't just a 'cream' per se. It had to offer creaminess but in a more disguised manner. I went with SSA Ice Cream specifically for it's neutral nature compared to other IC's. It brought that in spades.
WF Cream Puff + SSA Ice Cream make a fine overall creamy base for Chocolate Mousse over the top.
Side note: SSA Chocolate Mousse leaves a really nice chocolatey aroma in the air. And also leaves a very pleasant chocolate on the palate (but doesn't linger for long).
SSA CM is not in any way a fake tasting tootsie roll like chocolate. It tastes like a milk chocolate that has been slightly darkened (hope that makes sense!). Naturally, and to be expected, the other four flavors do play a major role in how SSA CM translates in the mix.
@Zazie can you please add this to your blog? Thank you!
You're talking about yourself? If so, are you saying you want to live on my trellis? I have my doubts that you'd provide adequate coverage.may not be quick but do climb
He seems happy so far, still on a test run for leaks right now.
I think he might have been a little jealous this week though as I was paying more attention to my Big Baby.
Oh, no, sorry, I did the RBA build in the Big Baby Beast last weekend...was thinking after I posted that I should have been a bit clearer!
Picture of Your Setup Part 3!
I'm building too many to keep track of, lol!
I need to start writing them down, even I'm having trouble remembering what build is in which RTA/RDA.
I was thinking about doing a Fat Rabbit (not Solo) build recently, but now that Cloudy is tuned up I'm not sure that I'm ready for dual coils with that much airflow!

I tore apart my Thelema quest 100 tonight and ruined it trying to make a dna board fit. Oh well, it was a review sample and I’ve been looking for an excuse to order the blue one.
There really isn't a 1:1 sub for flakey pastry.
My suggestion for a sub would be MB Soft Baked Cookie Base (1.5%). I don't think it would change the overall profile much. The idea is to add the soft baked element to CAP wafer.
