I don't really do dessert flavors much anymore, and I've almost completely moved back to tobacco flavors.
So even though the flavors I mentioned earlier worked for me, I haven't tried them in awhile so I'm not sure if they have changed.

Having said that, here are the answers to your questions, as best I can remember...
--The Tastyfinger tastes more like a Reese's than a Butterfinger, and the difference might be a lack of butteriness
--The Apple Pie isn't really buttery to me, unfortunately, and I would say I don't really taste much crust either
--The caramel popcorn used to be my favorite, but I never noticed any saltiness, although that would have been really nice

Sorry that none of those answers were what you were looking for.
I've never tasted any juice that I would consider buttery or doughy tasting.
:(

However, Kick Bass Vapor does have a caramelized cappuccino that is a bit salty, and it is one of my favorite coffee flavors for that reason.


And as a side note...
One of the big issues with buttery flavor is that diacetyl is a common ingredient in butter flavors.
But diacetyl has been removed from most juices because it poses a potential health danger when inhaled.

No worries. It may not be the answers I wanna hear, but at least it does help me gauge whether I should order them or not. Thanks for the diacetyl warning. I am aware of it, and usually make sure the places I buy from don't have it. The one buttery vape I've had is BWB's Waffle, but it's only buttery for the first couple weeks, then the syrup tends to dominate the flavor profile, so I haven't ordered it in a while. I wish that buttery flavor would stick around past a couple weeks.

Some good salty vapes are Line Rider from Nite Lite, which is their 555, and the buttery popcorn from Vapor Room (with extra flavor; it's way too light without it)

One of the inherent issues in vaping is the tendency among vapers to assume (or hope) that inhaling flavored vapor will provide the same taste experience (and the same satisfaction) as eating real food. So many factors in the vaping marketplace aggravate this tendency: the names given to juices by vendors and flavor companies, the pictures and text (ad copy) used on vendors' juice pages, the reviews here on ECF, etc. People are understandably seduced into what amount to unrealistic expectations, which then go unfulfilled.

An example is chocolate. As a food flavor that we eat, sweetened chocolate is deeply satisfying, almost primally addictive for many people. Brains go crazy for the stuff. As a flavor in vaping, however, chocolate is frustratingly elusive, quite often (I would actually say "usually") bearing not even a vague resemblance to the experience of eating chocolate. And yet, how many chocolate-flavored juices are sold in the retail vaping marketplace? I daresay the number is in the thousands.

Another example relevant to the original post in this thread is "doughiness." Whether we're talking about cakes, pies, cookies, or any other bakery confection, the vast majority of vaping versions of those desserts or snacks fail miserably to replicate the experience of eating cooked dough. The very best bakery juices I've ever vaped offer only the merest hint of anything remotely approaching the experience of actually eating cake or dough. Try as we may, flavors simply cannot provide texture. The best that flavorists and juicemakers can do is to trick the brain into bringing up stored memories of eating such delights. And usually they don't succeed.

That said, some brains are "looser" and more free-flowing than others in making associations between the medium of eating/drinking/smoking and the medium of vaping. A different way of saying this is that some brains are easier to trick than others, although in the case of food flavors and vaping, that trickery is the hoped-for end result. (In a very general fashion, that's one of many reasons why advertising is so successful in creating desires.)

For better or worse, the OP's brain is only partially seduced. The expectation is created that vaping can, will, or should taste like eating dessert, but the satisfaction does not follow. LOL.

I have no suggestions of dessert juices that are guaranteed to satisfy, but I can certainly offer my sympathy, since many of us encounter this same disconnect.

I know you dont want to hear msts but honestly theres nothing close imo in bakery vapes and iv tried soooo many. Its really not overpriced when compared to other high quality vendors and she always throws in extra. Her chocolates are the best anywhere too . Spot on to real chocolate.All msts juices have this super richness that other juces just dont have. Its more like the real thing put into a blender and bottled over normal ejuice which is usually resembling the real thing but lacking that real richness.

Thanks for the very detailed reply. I've always enjoyed reading your posts. Maybe doughy isn't the best word to use. I'm not looking for a texture (though that would be nice, of course) but a taste. Like a bready or cakey taste. I wanna taste the bread in the donut and the cake in the cupcake, not just the icing. I guess that's what I'm looking for...

I figured some people would take offense to me saying Ms T's is overpriced, and I totally understand. But I really feel that there are vendors using very high quality ingredients that still have affordable pricing ($.50 - $.60c per ml). The best example I can think of is Backwoods, or Highbrow, which uses house extractions of everything--very high quality; they offer 30ml for $15. So to me, the places that sell their juices for almost $1 per ml (or more) are overcharging. It's nothing against the juice. Like I said, I'm sure it's as wonderful as people say, but I do think that many of these places are charging much more than they need in order to make a healthy profit.

Besides that, I'm unemployed right now and just can't afford the more expensive stuff, which is another reason why I'm looking at the more affordable sites. Either way, I'm not trying to offend anyone, and I hope I haven't. Just giving my honest opinion.

With all that said, once I'm working again and have a steady cash-flow, I most likely will give Ms T's a shot because of all that I've heard :)
