Got Christmas cookies to vape?
Here are some of my favorites on VU (they're free ones, so get mixin'!):

Swedish Sandbakkels - cardamom cookies; thanks to the person who recently sent me the proper name for these
Italian Anisette - very traditional Italian cookies
German Zimtsterne - these are cinnamon-spiced hazelnut meringues
German Pfeffernüsse - ambitious recipe, really fantastic vape version of these spice cookies

(not cookies, but so what): Schwartzwӓlder Kirschtorte - very authentic, boozy, German Black Forest cake

Well, HIC, Pink Cadillac Collection finally made me pull the trigger ;) Good stuff in there, hope it sells well!

Now I have to break down and buy some FA flavors. At least you tend to like my two staple TPA/TFA flavors Hpno and Citrus Punch(old Max Dew). You know I will be sneaking some Hpno in a few of these ;)

These recipes look really good, thanks for making them available! Well worth the $5.

New today at HIC's Mixes : British Custard Creams
View attachment 33882
"Americans would call them cookies - tender vanilla cookies with vanilla buttercream and subtle hints of lemon and coconut. This is designed as an all-day vape, especially for fans of proper British custard creams and other sweets made with custard powder. All flavorings used are diketone-free. This recipe uses only FlavourArt flavorings."


Not a bowl of custard - it's cookies. Errrr, biscuits! I think most Americans have never heard of them, but if you know Bird's custard powder, imagine it used to make cookies. :) Cost Plus World Market tends to carry packages of these around the holidays, if you like to snack-n-vape.

Mixing this up now. :)

You forgot Peppermint Pirate Truffles:D. And Vanilla-Cinnamon straws! I'm too sick to post link. Must save energy to mix Italian Anisette Cookies.:D

I wish I had the wall space to dedicate to such organized storage! Does the curtain on the left close to block off light?
Yes. I work nights, so that window is pretty much blocking most light.

Hic, I am really lovin the blueberry coconut smoothie in the kayfun v4.

I put two of the coils I build for the kayfun into my dripper the other day and was blown away by the flavor of the banana pudding (my favorite Hic mix).

For anyone using a nautilus reading this, you really gotta try a kayfun. You will be pleasantly surprised how much better the flavor is. I'm using my 4 nautiluses to help ppl who want to quit smoking. My sister-in law is at the house this weekend trying to quit smokin. She has already figured out she prefers the kayfun over the nautilus

New today at HIC's Mixes : Bora Bora Collection
p Bora Bora.jpg
"These recipes begin with Bora Bora White: a smooth blend of mild tobaccos and coconut-vanilla cream with accents of creamy white chocolate. Four easy variations are included to suit your every mood: a rich and nutty version, a dry version with coconut-husk flavor, a lush and fruity dessert version, and a mild coconut-vanilla latte. All flavorings used are diketone-free. These recipes require only FlavourArt flavorings. The tobaccos required are 7 Leaves, Burley, and Cuban Supreme."

Ahhhh @jensy , we learn something new about you. ;)

About Sweet Woodruff flavors: I've finally tried the Jungle Flavors (from ecx) and German Flavors (from VapersTek) versions. They are NOT LIKE TFA's !! I also have real woodruff saved from my garden, which I use for comparison. TFA Sweet Woodruff is a very good representation of the the real thing. JF and GF are both fruitier and similar to each other, seemingly intended for a German "MayBowl" flavor (a woodruff-spiked punch). Actual woodruff is not at all fruity, with more vanilla notes than JF and GF. Neither one completes Vanilla Silk; it needs TFA. Word to the wise: if you want TFA Sweet Woodruff, hurry, before TFA decides to completely discontinue it; Bull City has sold out of it, but Wizard Labs has plenty. (I haven't tried the other brands yet in Thai Mango Sticky Rice; I will, but I'm not optimistic there, either. Get TFA!)

Thank YOU for all your descriptions, and I'm glad you found your way back! If you get lost again, there's a link on the "Notes, etc." page at the store.
Meanwhile, Wizard Labs has only small sizes of TFA Sweet Woodruff left. Since I like using Woodruff, currently in two recipes, I was curious, if TFA would re-introduce and/or re-stock it. Therefore, I contacted TFA/TPA directly via email. The reply said, (if you're a bulk orderer) you can still order it. However, the only size available is 1 Gallon, freshly made upon order.

:eek: One gallon eek! On the bright side at least it still will be available. I brought a 4 oz. size at Wizard Labs upon HIC's announcement of it's discontinuance. Perhaps if there's enough of us who wants it, we can all share.

Similarly, if there are more wanting the Sweet Woodruff and contact TFA/TPA, they might restock.

BTW, I bought two 4 oz. bottles at Wizard Labs. I just don't want to run out of that. I'm in the process of creating another recipe with Woodruff as an ingredient. I might post it in the DIY sub forum, if HIC doesn't beat me to it. :)

That's true but I think outside of HIC's groupies probably not many people know what to do with Sweet Woodruff, that's most likely way it's not being stocked. If the need arises we all here can buy the 1 gallon size & split it amongst us.

At least you'll be stocked for a while. If you do create a recipe, please let me know the link. ;)

I have posted a recipe a while ago, that utilizes German Flavours Woodruff. However, it can easily be replaced with TFA's, probably at the same percentage.

Pink Caddilac is soooo good! A true "shake & vape"! Thanks HIC! Didn't get a chance to make the other 3 yet.

Just wanted to wish everyone here "the Merriest of Christmases" may everyone bask in the warmth of love!

If you have a sweet tooth and like fruity dessert vapes, put FlavourArt Monsoon on your shopping list! As far as I can tell, only ecigexpress has it in the US right now.
perfect-white-cake.jpgcanstockphoto3154543.jpg
That's white cake and candied "tutti fruitty" bits. I taste candied cherries, candied orange peel, and other candied fruits (papaya?) that come and go, hard to identify, but a complex blend of bright candied fruit bits. It's among FA's sweetest flavors. :D

Try 2% or 2.5% standalone for a first mix. As a shake and vape the fruit is strong; after a couple days the fruits mellow and the background white-vanilla cake flavor gains strength. Around 3% standalone the vapor trail gets fragrant, like some kind of fruity incense, so less than 3% pleased me more. I'd call the fruit blend "aromatic" - but there are no flowers here (thank goodness!)

Monsoon is in hot competition with Vienna Cream as my favorite FA standalone flavor. I've been mixing with Monsoon but keep finding I prefer it standalone! YUM!

P.S. If you buy flavors based on the manufacture's or vendors' names/descriptions, you'll have to be brave and/or trust me. I would have named it Tutti-Frutty Wedding Cake (it's different fruits than FA's "Tutti-Frutty", so I see why they didn't).

Besides Monsoon, I also noticed two more flavors I haven't seen before, called Aurora and Eclipse. I have all three of them. However, I haven't tried them yet.

Does anybody know what kind of 10ml vials Ecigexpress uses for flavorings? Plastic or glass?

I've been sticking with RTS just because of the glass, but they're missing some flavors I want, and I need another FA vendor.

They are plastic. Due to being just 10ml, I don't care too much about it.

My first sniff of Monsoon when I opened the bottle reminded me of fruity bubble gum. If you make some for her, please let us know how she likes it! From the little I found about that vendor flavor, I think vapers who like it would also like Monsoon.

Eclipse: If you have the flavors, mix 1.5% or 2% each of FA Tuscan Reserve and Cocoa, add 0.5% of either Spearmint or Anise (or 0.25% each). If you like the general flavor and want a version less prone to scorching, put Eclipse on your shopping list. Eclipse settles into layers before your very eyes, so be sure to shake the heck out of it before (or as!) you measure it out. When I tried Eclipse 3-5% I was immediately reminded of http://vapingunderground.com/threads/hics-toscanello-fondente-cigar.17785/ , but it also has a little minty-sweet something added (not plain menthol IMO).

p.s. This was the inspiration for me, and who knows, maybe for FA as well: https://www.italiansmokes.com/products/Toscanello-Fondente.html
(Since it mentions "licorice", maybe Anise is more appropriate than Spearmint.)

Chocolate tobacco I could do... but not into Anise or Licorice or menthol LOL thank you so much for this!!!!! I know the Dark Vapure now that I've tamed it down to .5% with cocoa and chocolate works great :)

Another question... If I wanted to get rid of FW Butter Pecan in a recipe... I was reading your notes ... something about FA butterscotch and coconut or Nut mix .... do you think that would work as a sub for the FW?

Only if the FW Butter Pecan is a minor ingredient in the recipe. If it's one of the main flavors, I think you'd be very disappointed, especially by the reduced sweetness.

Hey HIC, is your website down? I had a window open from my last purchase, and when I opened it and tried to change to a different selection, was given a message about being blocked

Hmm. I was in north Texas when I used that open window last. I'm now in Austin. I wonder if that triggered something.

Ouch! Let go of my arm...:D I'll give the other two a try. I'll get back to you with the results ASAP.
psstt still waiting hahhaha I just ordered Eclipse, Monsoon, and Aurora... and yes I ordered the Eclipse even knowing it might have a minty taste... because I like torturing myself that way *gigglesnorts*
