Good morning, ok last night I was planning my approach to this....glad I committed, it took my mind off things which was good....anyway this is what I came up with which may or may not work, either way, I'll learn something.

1) Danish recipe, I'm aiming 2/3 for Danish part, 1/3 for the fruit since fruit can be more stand alone, brighter in taste, and simpler I am hoping more or less if go single fruit, or fruit custard blend, I feel the complex part will be the dough, so I will start on dough part first since that will likely take more time for me, calculated my %'s for base recipes based on 20% final flavoring, know it could change, but trying to get ballpark idea.....so then Danish part, around 13% recipe, fruit aspect 7%, gives me plan to aim for and I can adjust as/if needed

2) looked at Bill's recipe, and think am going to use waffle as main component of dough part too, came up with trial blends to mix when supplies arrive, blindly have no idea how will turn out, live and learn right? Right before bed, thought of more pastry-ish minor flavors that tfa offers, wrote down in notes for consideration since did math for initial 3 dough attempts already, feel this part will take up more time initially.
3) fruits, decided will go with blueberry wild or lemon, with or without vanilla custard, this part looks easier for me, either 7% full fruit or 5%fruit/2% vc

These are just my basic plans how I'm going to approach, what I hope to learn....is dividing a complex recipe into fractions/flavor family sections a feasible way to approach it or should I look at it as whole from the get go for me? Am I underestimating fruits by always thinking they are "easy"? I've had luck with strawberry ripe, are blueberry wild and lemon going to be easy or more challenging? What portion of a recipe should I devote to first, the complex part or the presumed simpler? Working with main base and accent notes, how much % per flavor family should I give to my recipe?

Please remember, I'm newer to this so my plans may be silly or "off", but I need to do this, succeed or fail, I'll learn. I'll also have to see if 2/3 for dough/Danish/pastry is too much and if need to decrease to 1/2, if it comes out to being "hot mess" Danish, I'll have to rethink and reevaluate things. Really hope supplies come in soon, already 2 days too late, lol, so after these appts, I can get started, but again, this has become quite the welcomed mental distraction.
" HOT MESS" love it, I'm sure we will learn a great deal from all the pros that will chime in. I love all these minds at work, I thought I was the only one loosing my mind think about how to improve this adventure or hobby which ever way you want to look at it

NICE!!! :D

Might I suggest BUTTER, as well, dear Reni?

If I have the energy, I'm going to start with the Danish Dough today. I'm thinking butter, donuts, cinnamon sugar cookie as a starting point with enhancements (vanilla (swirl) and creams (Bavarian and/or French vanilla) + Sweet). I know there's a Danish dough recipe here somewhere. I've always focused on toppings in the past, because those are the primaries with a Danish vape. Mom made some excellent suggestions, though, so I thought I'd start my Danish adventure there. We really do have a lot to play with, and while most of them are unlikely to work, I just suspect there's magic around here. Also, given two weeks to work on a flavor allows a great deal of exploration, and I'm looking forward to that, something I really never do any more (take two weeks to work on a flavor, that is). Ciao! :2c:
OH! You're a GEM!!! Thank you!

Yes, you may suggest such things! Since I got the hubby to fork out for the Vape (tackle) Box today, I'm wondering when I'm going to get vape cut off LOL Maybe it's time to order the wee sizes.... :unsure::w00t::w00t::w00t:

Doughnuts does sound like a good idea as well. I cannot wait! Thanks kiddo!

You have a similar order to mine,i got the 4oz. sweet cream,which i have already been using this flavor,but this is my first 4oz. bottle of it,i also ordered the rainbow sherbet,can't wait to try that one,and the french vanilla cream,both of those are the small 4ml samples though.I also got a 4oz. of the sweet orange that Bill swears by haha.If you like the taste of real hazlenuts,then you will like the tfa hazlenut flavor.I got that one in a trade a few weeks ago,and found a recipe for hazlenut cream,very good stuff.I will definitely be trying out the rainbow sherbet when my order gets here monday,so i'll post thoughts on it then.



This will be my first winter since i started vaping,and i can already see the cold weather is going to play hell on the juice.It is around 40 degrees today,and the juice's i have made at 70vg/30pg will barely wick in my protank,and wicking really slow in my fogger and orchid.Looks like my batches from now until spring are going to be 60/40 or even 50/50,nothing worse than a nasty burnt/dry hit.


I'm experiencing the same thing. Actually had to "PG" down my morning vape.... Glad I'm not the only one with that issue!:mad:

Have a missed something Vape Meeting when and where?

This got started back on page 391: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...entice-flavoring-thread-391.html#post14287470

A lot of information over those last 15 pages or so....maybe a quick scan to catch up. Essentially, almost everyone has agreed to participate in a community effort to develop a TFA Danish recipe. Hopefully, we can all enjoy the communication, the learning and sharing, the community, etc. using the common goal of making the best Danish we can (there are no winners...well, perhaps we all win). So, today is the start of that effort, which then ends on Sunday, October 19, 2014. All about the journey......and, maybe, we end up with some interesting destinations. We would love to have you participate.

THERE IS NO LIST! Useful initially to show support, but not something that can reliably be updated every time a new poster wants to participate. Participation IS the goal. So, are you interested? :D

Just in case anyone is in need of glass droppers quickly...

I hit up Walmart and Kroger this week for glass droppers. I bought 11 packs, for a total of 22 droppers. They are Flents brand, 4 inch droppers and come 2 to a pack. One is curved and one straight. I tested them and they seem to drop the same. Walmart sells them for $1.47 and Kroger for .99. Averaged price with tax is .64 per dropper. The 12 pack on Amazon averages .73 each, with shipping. :thumb: I wish I had known they were cheaper at Kroger. I would have went to a couple and bought them all there.

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

I did the SAME thing today. The ones that Bill had posted a link for on Amazon are now out of stock. Called the vendor and they don't know when they'll be back in. That cracks me up! (just got back from 5 hours of grocery/Michaels (looking for the darn Cream Cheese Icing LorAnn)/Hobby Lobby blah blah blah... All over from one end of this city to the other for various things. Found those when getting hubby contact stuff... I was like DING DING DING! WINNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A hardy welcome to the Meet! I am no longer updating "The List." It was a tool just to show initial support, and pretty much everyone is participating, as near as I can tell, and we are happy to have you in this effort! :toast:

The main thing, I think, is just to communicate, to ask questions, posit suggestions and solutions, and most importantly, to HAVE FUN! :D

If I missed anyone, please know you are so very welcome to this team effort! Ciao! :banana:

Personally, I am EXTREMELY excited to see how quickly we had some folks we hadn't met before, come out of the woodwork and those we have met before, come right on board. Bill was originally right, I had an idea about something like this-just couldn't put it in the proper wording. I think that we can truly come together as a community and share some TERRIFIC ideas.

Like Bill has said-participation IS the goal. If you don't have, or can't get certain flavors or are busy or what have you-no worries :toast: You could be sitting on something that none have thought of before, or maybe something one or more of us want to try! So, please, take a minute and share away!

Those that are out there that aren't interested and still have TFA questions, please feel free to ask. The goal here isn't to take over the thread JUST for this BTDS (Brain Trust/Danish Style :laugh: ), it's just trying to get MORE participation.

Ok, that's my :2c: and after today, I can't believe my brain has that much to spare! Amazing what happens when you slow down for more than a drive between stores~!

Today is a good day,now i feel like i'm "In the loop" haha,all this talk of cream cheese icing had me feeling left out,and after finding out what i seen at walmart was the emulsion,i was planning on ordering it here in a few weeks after i get some more tfa stuff.I got my ebay bucks today,and was browsing to see what i could get with my whopping $8 haha,and searched for lorann,and found the 1oz. cream cheese flavor for $7 shipped,so i got a great deal because it was free,and free is always good.Now,next week i can catch up on a few more of these recipes that pop up so fast i cant keep track of them haha.

This is IT!!!!!!! Thanks E_Cig! Your tip did the trick!! Just what I was looking for - shake and vape. Recipe is:

Blueberry 8%
Vanilla cake 11%
Vanilla Swirl 6%
Bavarian Cream 1%
Sweet Cream 2%
Cotton Candy 2%

I lowered the cotton candy because of the sweet cream and for me it is perfect. Funny but it also made it 30% flavor. I was thinking "more blueberry?" but definitely not. It comes through softly and pleasantly. And I bet it will just get better because I love it now!

Thanks everyone!! Success is so sweet!

Wow! Great looking recipe. Looks exactly like my 30% mixes.....with one exception. Sorry, missed it. Which vanilla cake did you use?

I wanted to play with this recipe but you never did say.. is this TFA Vanilla Cupcake or? I went over 10 pages past and when you started posting again didn't see a reply. I know there was someone asking about the final concoction so they could add it to their recipe collection. Well, this was last known version.
