desperately seeking pixie stick

[danykitten]

Hey yall. I used to have a b&m close to me that had a pixie stick/ fun dip flavor. I've tried to recreate but I'm so far off in left field I don't know what to do. Any tips or recipes to get me going would be greatly appreciated

Here's a flavoring I think you'll need: http://shop.perfumersapprentice.com/p-7393-sweet-and-tart-flavor.aspx
In fact, that might be all you need!

i have 3 recipes you might want to play with..

Fairy Juice

10% ecto fw
8% Grape Juice tfa
5% key lime tfa

Fairy Farts

10% sweettart tfa
2% koolada
1% methol

pixie stick

6% Blueberry Extra tfa
6% Energy Drink (monster) tfa

I have tried the sweet and tart by itself so it's not just that. Thanks smoky I play with those. I don't have ecto though so I'll have to make a change

and of course, your additives play a big part..

malic acid at around 2% maybe higher..
Sea buckhorn works too..
plus your sweetener..
i'd stay away from things like em, marshmallow..

Sea buckthorn? I saw this the last time I placed an order. What does it taste like and what would it do?

Also you would choose malic over citric?

I have tfa sweetener but I've always sweetened juices with flavors lately I'm thinking I may actually need a sweetner. What do you recommend?

 

[Smoky Blue]

Sea buckthorn is a sour candy effect
.. oh also the tart and sour work too..
there are just too many ways in making "the perfect pixie stick"..
yes malic.

My best guess is...

FA Orange 3%
FA Citrus Mix 2%
FA Mad Fruit 1%
TFA Sweet & Tart 1%

Or swap out the Orange with FA Forest Fruit (Mix)

Thanks for all the recipes. They were good but I'm chasing a unicorn. I love vixen vapors pixie dust which is supposed to be an orange pixie stick but it's just pure candy heaven. I'll be messing with it more and I'm sure that the sweet and tart with malic is the right direction
