There is a discussion that just started in the place that starts with an R about the other new Canadian flavorist!![]()
Yeah, I saw that lol.

African Horned Cucumber, I can't wait to see what you do with this one![]()
I got the email from WF too and saw that horny cucumber at the top of the list. I think they're just reaching here, looking for names that differentiate their flavors from other flavor names already on the market.
I mean, really! Who has ever tried an African Horned Cucumber before?![]()
Just mixed a few 10mil testers of the new Wonder Flavors SC's I received. Picked out a few recipes to mix as well, but that will have to wait till tomorrow...
Almond Cookie SC 4%
Black Cherry Jelly Bean SC 4%
Nanaimo Bar SC 3%
Oats and Cream Cookie SC 4%
Peanut Brittle SC 4%
S'Mores Cupcake SC 4%
Shortbread Cookies SC 4%
They all taste spot on with a drop on my finger. Hopefully they will be as good in a mix...I'll post my thoughts in a couple of weeks...

I like the Nanaimo Bar at 4% with 1% INW Custard added. The extra custard gives it that little touch that gets it closer to real Nanaimo Bars.
I'm especially interested in your feedback on the nut flavors: Cashew, Macadamia Nut, Walnut and Almond Cookie![]()
Testing: 10ml single flavor & 15-20ml recipe samples were mixed by weight @ 30/70 PG/VG & 6 mg/ml with RTS nic and aged for 14+ days. Toppers were Serpent SMM RTA's with KGD organic cotton & UD 26ga SS316L wire for 3mm .53 & .54ohm single spaced coils. Samples were tested in Power Mode @ 35 - 40w & in TC @ 40W/400 - 440F. Power was provided by an Aspire Speeder 200W. Each sampling gets a fresh juiced wick & 2ml of liquid. Subsequent tasting was done as I usually do in TC, vape the wick practically dry & add a new flavor.
Keep in mind, these are just my opinions and I'm not particularly good at flavor descriptions. I'm lazy & typically mix simple, straight forward recipes & really like premade blends or single flavors that can stand on their own. I hoped most of the flavors I ordered would be just that. Mix, age & vape. I've pretty much vaped these exclusively for the last week or so & most are all gone. So, here we go...
Almond Cookie SC 4%
Nice sweet, almost crisp cookie but very light on the almond. After vaping half of it, I added 1% Almond (FA), let it sit for a few days & like it better. This one blends well with Sugar Cookie (CAP) to add a crisp edge...
Black Cherry Jelly Bean SC 4%
Finally, a sweet candy cherry that tastes just like it's supposed to. Sweet, juicy & almost chewy. I'm gonna enjoy playing with this one. Can you say Cherry Lifesaver...
Nanaimo Bar SC 3%
Probably my favorite. Good blend of chocolate, custard & a light coconut. Although really good as is, I like @ceeceeisme's version with 1% Custard (INW) even better. I might drop it to .75 the next go round. The better half likes this one @ 4.5% plus a little sweetener in her Cubis with a .5ohm factory coil.
Oats and Cream Cookie SC 4%
Meh... a very mild semi-sweet cookie flavor. I am getting a light touch of something, but can't identify it as oats. Nothing I would vape stand alone, probably better used as an addition to other bakeries.
Peanut Brittle SC 4%
Plenty of nut, almost raw, but very light on the brittle. This one's gonna need a little help, but I think a couple of tweaks & it could be good...
S'Mores Cupcake SC 4%
Very nice, balanced blend of chocolate, graham & marshmallow in a light white cake. I think a small add of more cake would be even better...
Shortbread Cookies SC 4%
Ok I guess, but getting a slightly spicy fried dough undertone that I don't care for. Was expecting a sweet buttery cookie but that's not what I getting. Maybe less would be better...
Honey Roasted Peanuts SC 3%
Sweet roasted peanut flavor with a touch of honey. Very good stand alone...
Walnut SC, Cashew SC, Macadamia Nuts SC 4%
All the nuts were very buttery yet subtle in flavor. Would like a little more from these. I need to play with them some more before deciding. Can see they may be best mixed with lighter/milder flavors...
WF Recipe: Coconut Cream Pie (Wafer Crust)
Probably my favorite. Sweet coconut cream with ample wafer crust. Another favorite of the better half @ somewhat higher flavor %'s in her Cubis...
WF Recipe: Cream Layer Cake
Really nice flavorful recipe especially considering only 3.9% flavoring. Although light, I was surprised at how well the coconut came through @ such a small percentage. I will likely alter the %'s, (+ coconut cream & almond cookie), a bit next go round...
WF Recipe: Oatmeal Nut Cookie
Better than the Oats and Cream Cookie SC alone, but I think this could use a bit more cream, nut & molasses. The oat?? aspect seemed more noticeable in this recipe than in the single flavor...
A modified version of the WF Recipe: Strawberry Wafer (as I don't have the WF Fresh Strawberries) Here's what I mixed...
Crispy Wafer SC (WF) 4%
Sweet Strawberry (CAP) 3%
Vanilla Cream Extra SC (WF) .75%
Very nice, just what you would expect, crisp wafers with sweet strawberry cream. I will likely bunp the cream up a bit on the next mix...
Frosted Donut (sort of a combination of the two WF donut recipes, as I am missing a flavor in each) Here's what I mixed...
Glazed Donut SC (WF) 1.8%
Crepe SC (WF) 1%
Almond Cookie SC (WF) 1%
Buttercream Frosting SC (WF) 1%
Deep Fried Pastry Dough SC (WF) .9%
Angel Cake SC (WF) .5%
Very good, most realistic doughnut I've had to date. Vape as is or add your favorite fruit/flavored cream filling...
Pistachio Ice Cream Cone:
Pistachio Cream SC (WF) 4%
Sugar Cone SC (WF) 2%
Crispy Wafer SC (WF) 1.5%
Vanilla Cream Extra SC (WF) .5%
Koolada (TFA) .5% (Optional)
Turned out ok, but not quite what I was looking for. Will have to play with this one a bit more...
Simple Cookie Recipe to include the nuts (Cashew, Macadamia & Walnut) Here's what I mixed...
Sugar Cookie (CAP) 5%
Almond Cookie SC (WF) 1%
Nuts (Various) 3.5%
Meringue (FA) 1%
Although pretty good, the nuts didn't come through as well as I hoped. The Walnut seemed the most prominent of the three...
Although not perfect, I'm pleased with most of these flavors/recipes. With a couple exceptions, they are pretty much true to their descriptions & I encountered only one off taste, (Shortbread Cookies), maybe I got the wrong thing?? A few are very good standalone, (Nanaimo Bar, Honey Roasted Peanuts & S'Mores Cupcake). As with alot of these flavorings, they have an underlying sweetness that practically eliminates the need for additional sweetener. As always, YRMW. More to come...![]()
You're awesome, thanks for taking the time to test and write this up. I've become so dang lazy, haven't mixed anything for a while. I do have some of their newer flavorings but haven't even tried them yet. I can't believe it but I may be getting tired of flavors altogether.
