up fer a'nudder one?
okay.........

Vanilla Bean Ice Cream (base)

FW Vanilla Bean Ice Cream 2.7%
FLV Vanilla Custard 1.8%
INW Shisha Vanilla 1.5%
FLV Cream 0.8%
FLV Vanilla Bean 0.6%

Steep time = 4 weeks / again YMMV

Again skipping my usual mix notes, same reason as previous post ( :greengrin: ).

A note on Flavorah Vanilla Bean: It is not an actual vanilla flavor per se. Its use is more as an additive/enhancer. It will enhance any other vanilla flavor(s), making the overall vanilla profile more, ummm, vanilla-ee in a mix.

Do not use it thinking it will be a main vanilla flavor, OR, you will be disappointed (LOL, ask me how I know!). It is an ultra concentrate (meaning it is strong!). I've gone as high as 1% in a mix - but - with most mixes I would not exceed 0.8%. In fact I would recommend starting at 0.5% - 0.6%. You have been warned (LOL).

This mix was good without FLV Vanilla Bean. However, FLV VB seriously took the vanilla up many notches. And not in an obnoxious way, at all. It truly made the other vanillas, ummm, POP.


This mix is a really good vanilla ice cream on its own. Very tasty. But, it shines when you add a fruit (or two or three). Any nut flavor will work. Wanna turn it into a chocolate IC? No problem, just add up to 2% of your preferred chocolate flavor (to start, then add to taste, if needed).

Cookies and IC or cake and IC, either will work. Start with 2% - 2.5% / then add to taste as needed.

    sure.......... why not

    Vanilla Custard Pudding

    FLV Vanilla Pudding 2%
    FLV Vanilla Custard 1.5%
    INW Shisha Vanilla 1.5%
    FLV Cream 0.8%
    FLV Vanilla Bean 0.7%

    Steep time = 4 weeks / again YMMV

    Once again skipping my usual mix notes, same reason as the previous posts ( :lol: ).

    On its own it is a fine vanilla pudding. FLV Vanilla Custard is not eggy (compared to some other custards).

    As with the previous recipe: It shines when you add a fruit (or two). Any nut flavor will work. Wanna turn it into a chocolate pudding? No problem, add up to 2% of your preferred chocolate flavor (to start, then add to taste as needed).

    Should I add those three recipes to the blog, @ShowMeTwice? You didn't ask me to do so, as you usually do, so I'm not sure whether you consider them ready for inclusion.

    Oh no!!! Sorry. Yes, please include those.

    It's been what, beginning of April since I last posted on the ECF. I'm lazy today and forgot to ask you, in each one, if you would post them to your blog.

    Can you? Please?
    Much TIA :thumbs:

    To answer my own question of whether or not carrying packages affects the accuracy of my smartwatch, well it does. Three times I tested. Not carrying anything, walking from my bedroom to the living room and back, I averaged 30 steps. Then I carried a tray and I got 13 steps one time and zero steps each of the other two times. Therefore, my amount of walking at work is probably a lot higher than I thought
