The Flavor Apprentice Flavoring Thread

Cucumber, hibiscus and cactus sounds refreshing! Is hibiscus a very floral taste?

I always see it as a high note in a tea mix or as a uncommon flavor in a familiar mix. It can be floral but in low percentages it's just refreshing and slightly sweet. I like hibiscus tea though, so maybe I'm weird.

I'm also looking at playing with FA Liquid Amber and TFA Jackfruit. I know, I'm odd.

I've tried a purchased Amber liquid and didn't care for it all. It's a very distinctive flavor.

Is this in the Dropbox? Sounds good!

Yes it's in the #2 list of recipes. It's pretty darn good. Last time I used cheesecake instead of the icing since I didn't have it yet.

Thank you! I love lemon almost as much as strawberry and peach.

I know I've said it before but I really like the lite strawberry cheesecake recipe from the Dropbox. I up the cheesecake, graham cracker, and strawberry 1% higher but am using it every day.

Can you post it .. My computer crashed and all I have is my I phone and can't use the calculator ?

Here you go.

Lemon Frosted Danish

Lemon 12%
Vanilla Custard 4%
Sweetener-3/Brown Sugar-3 6%
Belgian Waffle 2%
Butter 2%
Sweet Cream 2%
Cream Cheese Icing 2%

Dang!!! No Belgian Waffle.

 

[hittman]

I used regular waffle the first time I made it and it was still good. I like it better with the Belgian and the cream cheese icing.

 

[LynnNC]

I don't have any of that either. And I just got an order from BCV this afternoon. I'll put it on my wish list for the next one. Will be awhile though.

 

[hittman]

I've put in three orders this month. I keep finding stuff I'm missing.

The one I got yesterday was my 2nd this month. Due to some changes in income, I can't order anymore for awhile. I'll have to look in my stash to see if there's something I can use for a substitute.

Even though my flavor stash is large I still find flavors I want to try or need for a recipe I found.

I just mixed up a new batch of lemon meringue pie. After all these months, I'm still really liking it. I got a bottle of biscuit flavor on my last order but haven't tried it in anything yet. Any suggestions?

Sausage and Gravy...LOL

@trophyfish711 - Here's the Lite Strawberry Cheesecake recipe from the Dropbox you asked for:

Cheesecake 12%
Graham Cracker 3%
Circus Cotton Candy 6%
Strawberry 3%
Vanilla Bean Ice Cream 2%

 

[hittman]

The lemon in the Danish recipe mellowed out overnight but is still good. The flavors are more balanced now.

Nice one IT! Sausage and gravy? Hey, it might be worth a try.

I haven't seen a sausage flavor yet,but they do make a bacon flavor haha.

 

[hittman]

Hmm, bacon and biscuits. Just missing the eggs.
