Howdy y’all, first post. Im kinda having writers block, only with mixing. Just wondering if y’all have any input on what recipies I’m able to make with what I’ve got. I do like juices on the complex side, but am open to any suggestion presented. Thanks in advance and I cant wait to see some ideas.
So, for right now, I’ve got as follows
Carmel- Cap
Cake batter dip-FW
Sugar cookie- FW
Ripe banana-Tfa
Blueberry extra - Tfa
Cheesecake graham crust- TFA
Dx banana cream- Tfa
Dx Barvarian cream-Tfa
Dx peanut butter-Tfa
Dx vanilla cupcake-Tfa
Fruit circles with milk-Tfa
Green apple-Tfa
Graham cracker clear-Tfa
Milk chocolate-Tfa
Strawberry ripe-Tfa
Toasted marshmallow-Tfa
Whipped cream-Tfa
Have you put them all in your stash on the recipe side (with the correct names) and clicked ‘what can I make’ - it will return every public recipe that contains your flavours.
Another strategy might be to start reading recipes, look for juices you might like based on the flavors used, then buy the flavors to mix it. You might find recipes that you already have most of the flavors. as time goes on check back on [what can i make]. As you collect flavors you will get more and more hits.
I’m using this thread because, I think it’s hilarious that @TorturedZen loses it over the misspelling of Bavarian Cream. I’ve misspelled Bavarian Cream so many times I lose count .
So I want to finish a recipe that I started a few years ago. Attempting a fairly accurate Banana Moonpie complete with the candied outer shell. I’ve gotten as far as the graham cracker flavored cake, and the banana infused marshmallow creme but for the life of me I cannot figure out the outer candy coating. Ive thought about using something like FW Candy Banana (it’s very runt like) fairly low just for the hard candy shell. Anyone have any suggestions?
That was only because the myriad of misspellings made it more difficult to search the DB for the correct flavors. Back then, unlike today, there was a concerted effort to clean up the gargantuan mess that users were creating.
What you saw in that post was a culmination of frustration, that later evolved into apathy.
Thanks @D.Sims i didn’t even think of going that route. I asked google AI how to create the flavor of a candy coating in e-liquid form and this is what I got. Definitely gonna have to try some of these ideas.
To emulate a candy shell in e-liquid, you need to combine specific sweet, slightly waxy, or tart flavor profiles with high-intensity sweeteners to create the sensation of a crisp, sugary coating.
Here are the best flavors and ingredients to use:
Key “Candy Shell” Flavors (Candy/Gummy Base)
These flavors provide the structure, sweetness, and slight “artificial” waxiness found in candy coatings.
CAP (Capella) Jelly Candy: One of the best for mimicking the chewy, thick, sugary texture of a candy shell.
FW (Flavor West) Hard Candy: Provides a clear, sugary, hard-crack sugar taste.
TFA (The Flavor Apprentice) Gummy Candy: Adds a distinct gummy texture and candy-like top note.
WF (Wonder Flavours) Gummy Worm Candy: Good for adding a waxy, sugary depth that helps emulate candy pieces.
** Candied Fruit Flavors:** Used to simulate the fruit-specific flavor of the shell (e.g., Grape, Strawberry, Lemon)
Also to enhance the “crunchy” or “coating” feeling, consider these additives:
Sweetener (CAP Super Sweet/FW Sweetener): High levels of sweetener are required to mimic the sugary coating, usually 0.25% - 1% of the total mix
.
every time I check out new recipe submission and the user has no brand name or a misspelled name.
