Ok here we go I just got the flavors this morning for this. And mixed it up, it smells amazing but I’m gonna give it a day or two steep before trying it and making it public.

Oh man… was searching “rainbow candy” recipes, and came across this. Deleted the name, as to not hurt any feelings, but this really made me think of your post. :rofl:

Shucks, of all the peanut flavors I have, I don’t have the Brittle and BCF doesn’t stock it anymore. I’d like to try this. I’ll have to wing it unless you know who stocks it at the moment?

Nomz and Diyejuice have the peanut brittle. I ended up grabbing all of the flavors in 3 ml’s @ Diyejuice. I just added the brittle for more authenticity than for necessity. If you have any straight peanut flavors (FA Peanut, FLV beer nuts) those would be a good sub.

Thx, McDuckie, I do. Yes, I didn’t look long enough to notice you have it at .50%. It should come out fine. Years ago I had no interest in PB recipes. Now I really enjoy them. Our tastes and preferences do change throughout the years. That’s one thing I’ve learned for sure being involved with DIY.

I remembered I have some little Real flavors samples kicking around from diy in BC, haven’t really used them at all. Just mixed and letting it sit a day or two. Smells awesome

I mixed up a similar recipe on Wednesday, using 3 of the same flavors you have in yours…

So I started vaping this one this morning 7/6. It’s good BUT I’m getting a lot more dry peanut than I expected. And after reading the reviews on both Buttercream (PB) and Taffy (PB) apparently a lot of people seem to get a slight dry peanut/skin note which may be why combined with the peanut brittle may be giving this too much of a dry peanut flavor. I feel like that aspect is actually taking away from the sticky taffy flavor that I was after. I definitely like the use of molasses in this though it adds an almost honey like quality to the peanut butter flavors.
I’m kind of embarrassed having committed such a rookie mistake by not SFT the newer flavors before mixing this up. If I had tested both before mixing I may have picked up those dry peanut notes in both of those flavors and would not have needed to add the peanut brittle.
Time for some testing and attempt a v2.

I completely get that @McDuckie, but SFT’ing every flavor before you use it, can be VERY time consuming.

So TRUE it can be, but it’s is also very helpful and sometimes necessary in understanding what your flavors can do. And how to use them accurately.

Well, I cannot argue with that. 100 % agreed. I wish that everyone knew that.

I don’t have anything to turn flavors into candy, chews or taffy so I’ll be sitting this one out.
Good luck everyone! :blush: :heart: :lollipop: :candy:

Fa Blackcurrant with TPA Vanilla swirl will get you a tart ,gummy , syrupy vibe…FLV Boysneberry would probably work as well. Then build on that
