So I have the toucan recipe which is delicious. But I just got my joy in a bottle in and itching to put it in a mix. What would your thoughts be on adding some into the mix? Yes or no? If so at what percent? I was thinking if so maybe 1-2%. Thoughts from the peanut gallery!
In that recipe, think of Joy as a trailing vanilla flavor. You might like it in place of part of the vanilla, same percent. I wouldn't just add it without adjusting something else, but that's me. If you do that, start with 0.5% to see what you think. 2% would be a major change, for sure.
I see Elites answered your post right away (Thank you @Elites !) but if you have more questions, ask away!
The link at the top of the screen in the store is not an email address; it's a website that sells most of the flavorings used in my recipes. It's not the only source, but Mamaj's is known for super-fast shipping and great prices on FlavourArt flavors.
Recipes rotate every 2-3 days, so they do all come back around. What you see there now will remain until Friday; then a new set will be listed.
I would have thought Dulche De Leche Churros would have had Joy in them...
Isn't a Churro a fried doughnut like pasty with cinnamon sugar

Thank you sir! I might just hold of until I finish up the flavor mix I already have then try it out. I do also have the golden graham recipe so I'll start my joy explorations there. Thanks again for your input.
That recipe predates FA Joy, but it was recently updated to add it as an option.
$0 is free for try and it's sort of small treat for us.
HIC is too modest to correct, but it is actually pay what you think it's worth to try out $0 + , I have at least tossed $1 extra for the "Free" recipe.
Whatever it is, it's still better than I could've come up with in a dollars worth of my time...lol
On the subject of updates. Receiving updates to the recipes we buy from you is just pretty darn great. I made my first purchase from your store a few months ago and I've already received several updates. Your recipes are an amazing value, in my humble opinion.
I went to a county fair in June. I ordered a funnel cake. To me, that is joy. Deep fried fair cake. I do not taste cotton candy, however that is the scent Joy gives off imho. I may be in a minority here, but I love it standalone or with some apricot or peach. Off to purchase gooey coconut cookies now.
@HeadInClouds I seen a ways back @Teresa P mentioning an oatmeal cream cookie? Do tell me about that. Ok, time to shop!
Me, I did 3% standalone or 2% with fruit...but I can taste things pretty good. Gumroad and I are having a war right now. My internet sucks, but is better than dial up....remember those days? It's because I live in the boondocks. I will try in the morning.

Got the coconut cookies last night, gonna mix it when I get home today! @Daintanee, that oatmeal cream pie is dreamy! Think I'm gonna fill my tank with that for work today....
And we're having fits with our internet too, I'm thinking it's cloud cover and all the storms we've had lately. VU is near impossible to navigate on my phone and getting a lot of freeze ups on my iPad. We have a Roku on the tv and it's dropping out and freezing too. Very frustrating.

I added it there for you, will leave it for a while today.Patiently waiting for Toucan...Which I am assuming is a cereal vape....
Mmmm, oatmeal cream pie! Mine is our net provider. Our house was built in 1905 and to get good service we would have to fork out money to have lines run underground. So when it gets in the 90's it messes up.Got the coconut cookies last night, gonna mix it when I get home today! @Daintanee, that oatmeal cream pie is dreamy!

Patience is a virtue.¿?! Ahha, no wonder I could not find it. Thank you kindly!
When I read this I went and ordered the Tiramasu Wafer, Oatmeal Pies, and Strawberry Malt. Also ordered some white peach FA. Can't wait to mix these up!

That's something I have little of unfortunately ... no not virtue, I meant patience dammit!

Deep, slow breath in. Hold it in. Are you still holding it in? Still? Still? Good thing you don't have too much patience.
Hot dog, HIC! Gooey coconut cookies mixed fresh, and i am vaping away! Absolute winner recipe here! The bomb! I am so JOYful! And fyi, I bet I could go through 4 oz. Of joy, and coconut, and Apple pie, and mango, and citrus fruits, and Vienna cream, oh and vanilla classic in about 2-4 years!
The store is offline this morning as I do some maintenance; will post back here when it's done.
Back up! Sorry for the delay. And...
New today at HIC's Mixes: Vanilla Silk Pudding
"Homemade pudding with sweet vanilla that lingers all the way through the exhale. It's reminiscent of classic stove-top tapioca pudding. If you haven't yet found your "holy grail" vanilla vape, this is for you. Variations include Milk & Honey-Vanilla, and Raspberry-Vanilla Panna Cotta. This recipe requires FlavourArt flavorings plus Sweet Woodruff by The Flavor Apprentice. (All flavorings used are diketone-free.)"
(I made sure the big TFA sellers have this flavoring in stock!)
This one is my personal "holy-grail vanilla vape" - It took nearly 2 years, but I now have diketone-free creamy vanilla that I can thoroughly enjoy. Of course it's mostly FA, but that TFA flavor was the key I needed all along.

I just ordered it from Bull City. Too bad they were out of FA Black Tea because I wanted that one, too.

Got the sweet woodruff before the mad rush (The 2015 HIC Joy Stampede will live on in flavor vendor infamy), but it turned into a 13-bottle order. Just when I thought I was in control.....lol!
Oh no you didn't!! As usual I am late to the party! Bull city is now sold out! I went to wizard labs and got it. And some hypno...I am more in control than @Teresa P! When you do this to us HIC, we have to all send each other samples.
@stephanie932 I would be happy to send you some black tea if you pm me your address.
