The Flavor Apprentice Flavoring Thread

Forgot who posted it, but I mixed up "Nanner Berry" last night and this is delicious!! Thank you!

Also made one posted either here or reddit that I actually went ahead and made a 30ml of because it's simply that good.

8% TFA Hazelnut
8% TFA French Vanilla
4% TFA Vanilla Cupcake

They originally had 6/6/3% but I wanted a bit more. Hazel nut is strong up front. Cupcake finishes well.

I'm still enjoying the lemonade and haven't made anything new except a test batch of caramel mocha espresso.

...a test batch of caramel mocha espresso.

?!?




Do please let us know how it turns out.

 

[hittman]

It's not mine. It's from the Dropbox.

Caramel Mocha Espresso

Espresso 4%
Caramel Mocha 16%

I'd have to look again to see what brand the flavorings are. Neither is TFA.

 

[hittman]

The caramel mocha is HS and the espresso is SC.

Thanks!

That's because it needs a little "doctoring".

I didn't think I would either but, there was a member here that posted an apple pie (wish I could remember who so if this looks familiar to anyone, thank you very much!!) that I tweaked a little and it's an ADV for me.

I was wondering what to do with my apple pie. Thanks!

I only use cap's vanilla custard and i am out of that athe moment. Maybe I can sub vanilla swirl...hmmm.

The caramel mocha is HS and the espresso is SC.

Just got my flavor order in and had to mix this up. First impression after shaking and vaping is that it might need a bit more time to steep, which is to be expected. Has potential. Can taste the espresso and the mocha, not so much the caramel at this stage.

I was thinking about adding a little ry4 to it.

I found the following in my notes. I think I intended to make it and that's why I saved it. However, I notice that either I missed it or the poster never posted the pear percentage. Anyone either recognize this or have this recipe so I can add the pear percentage? Thanks!

Vanilla Swirl 4%
Spicy Biscuit 3%
Brown Sugar 2%
Sweetener 2%
Dragon fruit 1% (I love this stuff in my fruit mixes - don't know why as I cant tolerate it above 1% haha but gives the fruits a nice rounded sweetness - similar to sweet raspberry which I also use in fruits. Dragon fruit gives a different depth than raspberry though. Try mixing with one or the other depending on the profile you're after.)

You'll also notice I use several different types of "sweeteners" in my recipes - this is because i enjoy the complexity of them added to mixes. So many times I see sweetener just thrown into a recipes without regard. Example - such as having brown sugar, sweetener and dragon fruit...each adds something but they are all sweet. It's like layering vanilla flavors. I tend to experience a more satisfying mixture when I layer similar flavors.

If I want 8% vanilla as a total - I may use the vanilla bean 2%, vanilla bourbon 2%, vanilla swirl 4%...like that.

In this recipe I wanted 5% sweetener because I dont want to overpower the main flavor of Pear but to compliment Pear's sweet side - I figure use half of the total of Pear (in my head this sounds right LOL) so I add brown sugar 2%, sweetener 2% and dragon fruit 1%. Vanilla and Bicuit added for richness - used Spicy Biscuit because well - I was going for Spicy Pear Nectar!

Here's the link to the original post from @MsLoud in case you would like to reference, or link to, the OP/post.

 

[IDJoel]

And speaking of your recipe @MsLoud; you never posted a name for this one. What have you named it (I like to have them properly labeled and credited in my recipe file)?
Thanks again for posting it. I finally got my Biscuit order in and was just contemplating what to do with it. Problem solved!
Thanks @LynnNC for bringing it to my attention once again!

Edited to add follow-up question:
I am presuming all ingredients are TFA (other than Inawera Spicy Biscuit), as you did not specify, and this is in the TFA thread?

Here's the link to the original post from @MsLoud in case you would like to reference, or link to, the OP/post.

Thanks! I had that entire post saved except the very first line that included the Pear.

 

[MsLoud]

Thank you! That is one of hubs ADV

Name is unoriginal - Spicy Nectar

Oh and yes - all TFA cept those you mentioned.
