I had both samples steeped so added some of both to a dripper and liked it. The pudding base is fairly strong and can over take the raspberry.
I'm not a fruit lover, but do use them as accents/companions in a variety of mixes. I have not as yet ventured into any of the VTA fruits, so really have no idea about percentages. I do have several flavored puddings aging. So far, I like the Pudding Base @ 4% with 1% Custard (INW) as the base. I generally start @ 50 - 60% complimenting flavor(s) to base. What I've mixed so far:
Chocolate Pudding
Pudding Base (VTA) 4%
Chocolate Chunks (WF) 2.25%
Custard (INW) 1%
Australian Chocolate (Hangsen) .75%
Hazelnut (FW) .5%
Vanilla Pudding
Pudding Base (VTA) 4%
Vanilla Overload (Gremlin) 2%
Custard (INW) 1%
Vanilla Shisha (INW) 1%
Coconut (FA) .5%
Pistachio Pudding
Pudding Base (VTA) 4%
Pistachio (TFA) 2%
Custard (INW) 1%
Almond (FA) 1%
Vanilla Shisha (INW) .5%
They're still young, so the results are still out & I'll likely make adjustments...
I’ll be curious to hear how they turn out. I like sweet flavors but also like sour and tart flavors. I’ve been using a raspberry yogurt with quite a bit of creams. I mix all the flavors and then use it as a base to mix at 15-20%.
I have discovered I hate orange. In any amount, in any proportion with ANYTHING. Lemon and lime, okay in some mixes, orange, acceptable in NONE. I even have a mimosa flavor and you'd think it would be subtle and it is. I'm still never using orange again in anything, and wondering what I might add to the mimosa to make it vapable etc. I'm thinking maybe apricot and mango those seem to be fruit flavors that fix many things for me.
Oh well, it's good to know one can give up on a flavor entirely, in way.

Tasted my VTA toffee ice cream sf (mixed the 12th) and can tell I'll be wanting a larger bottle of this one. Very good but need an added toffee boost, mixed this up before work.
HS caramel toffee 1.5%
FA cookie biscotto .5%
FE oak milk 1.5%
WF(SC) sugar cone 2%
VTA toffee IC 3.5%
HS caramel toffee 1.5%
FA cookie biscotto .5%
FE oak milk 1.5%
WF(SC) sugar cone 2%
VTA toffee IC 3.5%
Yup. I'll have to look at what I have, but yes, we can trade. LOL, I'm glad SOMEONE likes orange because it isn't me. LOL.

Is the Juicy Raspberry sweet or tart or a sweet/tart combo? I have the VTA Shisa Raspberry which is very nice but am looking for a more natural raspberry.
I bought VTA Botanical Gin and VTA Tonic on the Chef's Fest promo. I have NO idea how long it will take to get them since it is rare for them to run a sale and they have the Chef's Fest in Cardiff this weekend. I chose non-tracked shipping to save a bit. Worst case, I should have them in 10 days or so.

Thanks! I am working on a raspberry blend for a Raspberry Basil Sorbet, Sherbet, or Granita, whichever wins, but first I have to nail the raspberry mixture.
I’m going to get the milkshake base next time I order so I can try the raspberry in it as well as a few other flavors.
I haven't and can't remember what I read on the VTA VU thread.
Does the juicy raspberry need much of a steep?
I let my tester steep for two weeks simply because I mixed all of the single flavors from the same order and put them away. I will have to mix some more and see if it’s shake and vape or not.
I have it but haven't tried it yet. It sounds like it would work well with fruit - a sweet, thick cream. I am going to try it in my raspberry concoction just to see how it fares. From the review, I think it will work well with raspberry.
