Is it diketone free. I thought those where mainly in creams an custards
@tazzle, thanks for sharing this recipe. I have been chasing a great orange cream mix for over a year now. I have 2 that I like enough using a combination of FA Orange, TFA Mandarin Orange, and CAP Orange Creamsicle as the fruit stars. Ironically, I recently did some research on Reddit and subsequently purchased a bottle of FW Blood Orange. Now, no need to create my own recipe.
Great idea using the CF Welsh Custard. Did you use it at the same 10% as the CAP VC? I can see CAP VC at 10% needing every moment of a 20 day steep to settle and blend. I'm going to mix with the Welsh Custard. Thanks again for the post and additional mixing notes!
Have you tried the Nice Custard Cream from CF? I have mixed it solo @23% as recommended by CF and I love it. I think I am going to mix one batch of the Queenside Clone with the WC and one batch with the NCC.
Here's another good one if you like orange
Orange Cream 10%
Orange Mandarin 5%
Vanilla Swirl 5%
Bavarian Cream 5%
Cotton Candy 5%
Sweetener 2%
Blood Orange 0.50%
Signature is simply ecigexpress' re-packaged, re-labeled, "house" brand. They are not trying to deceive anyone and are quite open about it on their site:I have tfa juicy peach. It says signature juicy peach
In answer to your question; no, Signature JP is not the diketone-free version. They do offer offer both:
Note that the one on the left is using the "DX" to indicate that this is the diketone free version (as previously mentioned). This is a TFA designator and not ecigexpress' designator. (Although TFA has not been very consistent using this. Some of their earlier diketone free offerings were renamed instead of using the DX prefix. So, when in doubt, check TFA's home site. They openly declare content in both their descriptions and on their spec sheets found under the FAQ tab.)
I bought a small 8mL vial of the regular TFA Juicy Peach when I first started DIY. I really didn't care for it since it had ethyl alcohol in it. So, I quit buying it and just kept buying and using the TFA Peach.
When TFA came out with the DX Juicy Peach...I really didn't give it a second thought, since only trace amounts of Acetoin in it wasn't the reason I quit using it. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the DX not only has no traces of Acetoin in it...but it doesn't have ethyl alcohol in it any more either! Yippee!
So, I'm now back to using it again, many times in combination with the TFA Peach. I've found that those 2 do what the TFA Strawberry + TFA Strawberry Ripe do together...which is compliment each other for a nice blend.
I didn't know that about the DX version. I used to make a recipe with juicy peach, ripe strawberry, and honeydew. I quit using it since the alcohol in the peach dried my mouth out really bad.
Here's a pretty simple one that I have on my list to try. Can't give a first-person account of it yet, but just to keep this party rolling, I give you...
Smoked Banana Custard by Crago44 at elr:
2.5% Banana Cream (TPA)
0.75% Brown Sugar (TPA)
1.5% Toasted Marshmallow (TPA)
4% Vanilla Custard v1 (CAP)
Crago44 doesn't mention steep time, but I imagine it needs to steep a while.
One commenter at ELR says "Love this recipe. This flavor profile is the main reason I wanted to get into DIY, I was going through nearly 90ml of a Smoked Banana Custard from a "mainstream" vendor and this recipe is at least just as good if not better. Thank you for this."
I also figure it's one that you can tweak with different custards and adjust percentages if the flavor profile is appealing.

I have that in my calculator to test some day but I converted it to RF SC flavors so the percents are quite small and none of them are even/whole numbers:
Smoked Banana Custard (RFSC)
1.60% Vanilla Custard (Real Flavors)
0.50% Banana (Real Flavors)
0.50% Cream (Real Flavors)
0.40% Marshmallow (Real Flavors)
0.30% Brown Sugar (Real Flavors)
0.20% Toasted Blend (Real Flavors)
I need to try and move this up the testing list somehow.
I actually want to go cook it right now and eat it for dessert! (But for non-vape dessert, here's something I did actually make yesterday. Magic!)

So I tried the cactus cooler, and it's pretty good. It kind of smells like smarties, and tastes like Hi-C. It's not an ADV for me, though. I also tried their patchouli vanilla, and it's awesome. It's not too sweet, and there's just enough patchouli to give it a small hint of an earthy taste.
Good luck an keep up with this thread on it. Hear is 2 great ones I made by hichttps://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/threads/hic-recipes.798607/

Dare I ask for a recipe or two ?
What is the smurf berries. Sounds like something I would like. I have been all thru this thread an haven't seen it
really cause when I ordered it said tfa. Then they come in an say signature on bottle. I am so done with ecigexpress anyway my business will go to heartland an bull city
Post #39 this thread, NU_FTW included a small recipe towards the end of his post that is called "Smurf Berries" ;
Strawberry - 8-12%
Blueberry - 8-12%
DX Sweet Cream - 2%
Ethyl Maltol - 1%
I mixed mine using Strawberry Sweet (CAP) 8%, Blueberry Extra (TFA) 8%, DX Sweet Cream (TFA) 2% and Cotton Candy (TFA) 1%. No Idea how it is going to come out, but I want to let it sit a week or two first.
Where I came up with the idea was that I won a bottle of Tribulation by Agnostic Brew. I used 4% each of strawberry ripe, juicy peach, and honeydew. It tasted pretty close to the one I won.
