    This morning before chores I did a 5ml SFT of WF Pastry Cream at 2%. LOL, 2% = 0.1g / think it was like 8 drops. IMO that doesn't require any steep time whatsoever.

    I love my creams, most of my recipes use two. IMO creams help to make nearly every mix taste better. Even a tiny amount (0.25% - 0.5%) can turn a ho-hum mix into one that is vibrant and excellent. I am a huge fan of the Wonder Flavour creams, no two are alike, all are awesome.

    WF Pastry Cream: It's a lovely tasting cream, very nice mouthfeel, not heavy, sweetness sits at about the mid-point, rich, no off-notes, has some moistness.

    Describe it in one word? Heavenly.

    Is WF Pastry Cream a crème pâtissière? IMO, absolutely yes. But, the answer also depends. A crème pâtissière is basically a custard filling. It's not a custard in the way of CAP Vanilla Custard v1, FA Custard Premium, INW Custard or any of the others. Those to varying degrees feature some level of egginess which is experienced by way of taste. A decent pastry cream should not have that note (but it is created using eggs). WF Pastry Cream has no egginess.

    I can see many uses for WF PC. One could "enhance" it by adding a light touch of a custard. That would create a more complex tasting cream within a mix. Desirable IMO.

    This is another 5ml SFT that I could easily vape up today. And I just might. When a flavor tastes this good off the mix, it isn't going to turn crappy with steeping (LOLx100), it's only going to get better.

    Wonder Flavours created another winner with Pastry Cream!!!
    OK. Much thanks. Looks like I need to sft that and the Alaskan Berries. Probably not today and I will do only 5 ml on both. Really starting to get tired of doing sft's.

    I hope you like it. What percentage did you do?

    3%

    Not yet. Buying some VSO flavors has been on my DIY to-do list for a while.

    If you sign up they will give you 25% off your first order. Shipping is slowwwww right now, about 2 weeks.

    I still have 2 mixes to try that isn't going to happen today. One is the Ice Cream Toffee and the other is sparkling strawberry/pastry cream (No hurry to try that one)

    Didn't get the Toffee Ice Cream. I should have. WF's vanilla ice cream is a favorite of mine. Swore I could taste some of that in their dark chocolate ice cream.

    I will get toffee ice cream with my next order.

    Tired of doing SFT's???

    I'm enjoying doing them, for me they are a nice change of pace.

    Here is the not mine recipe. It's by Developed. I call it lemon butter cookie and I'll note the changes I did.

    1% Biscuit INW
    2% Lemon FE
    1% Meringue FA (orig use TFA)
    4% Sugar Cookie CAP
    1% Super Sweet PUR (orig use CAP)
    1.5% Sweet Cream CAP (orig 1% TFA)

    Developed calls it a blind remix of SadBoy Butter Cookie

    @Zazie
    Which recipe site?
