Glory and Jamaican Rum, you could add Coconut, Pineapple, and Catalan Cream to the mix as well. I'm currently working on something similar to this, just with a few more flavors. It will need at least one week steeping, in order for the tobacco to come out.

thanks huckleberried,,

i have trying to use patience and mix solo flavors.. i even started out at 0.5%,, and the next batch would be 1% and so on... my tastebuds just arent finding good pairings. now i can take a store bought juice and cut it down severely and they still taste fine to me........so its not about depth of the flavor,, but finding those that go together well in vapeland.

ie,,, pineapple cake sounds great,, but pineapple and nonna cake is just kind of 'meh',,yes i know i likely need some brown sugar,, and .........uh,,, and uh,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,and ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...(stomps off to go work on coils instead)

Give them a bit of time, too. Most simple fruit mixes are fine shake and vape, but the creams and desserts definitely improve in time.

Nonna cake is good standalone at about 4 to 5%, at 3% I couldn't taste much. A lot of FA flavors work great at 0.5 to 2% but not all of them

I'd say you need some more fruits.
Fuji Apple
Lemon Sicily
Lime (either one or both)
Pomegranate
Passion Fruit
Strawberry
Cookie
Meringue
Vanilla Classic
Condensed Milk (some don't like this one but I think it adds something the other Creams are missing)
(But only used at 0.5% along with Vanilla Classic + Fresh Cream/Vienna Cream)

Pineapple + Coconut = Pina Colada

Maybe start with 1% Pineapple + 2.5% Coconut

Jamaican Rum is even pretty good stand alone at 2-4%.

Heabob,,,,yes,, i did try the JR stand alone around 3% the other day and i liked it,,and i think your 4% is likely the kick i need.

i had already mixed up some 'cocopine' as below--i havent tried it yet,,i will find a recipe to name after you :)

since i use max VG,,,(pg Nic & flavors) and since i am only mixing 10mls at a time for now...i mix the ingredients then put them in a hot water bath until they reach room temp,,,,,,,normally i would mix 30mls at a time and use a coffee frother.

sorry about the copy/paste format,,,,,,,maybe i have to use a screenshot.....

If you are looking to add to your stash listed above...

I really like strawberry FA added to forest fruit.
Fuji FA is great.
White peach FA. Yummy.
Cookie FA
And although not FA. But biscuit INW is versatile and can give you a bakery taste to everything.

Of course all of the fruits can be wonderfully mixed with Vienna cream FA and fresh cream FA. What is what I like to do when jumping into a any new fruit flavor.

At least your able to taste the flavors using high VG as a few were having some problems, although it could have just been taste bud issues mostly.

Even though I drink way more Coffee than I should, I'm still not too keen on the Coffee type vapes, or Tiramisu.
Or I have to use 0.5% or less, with lots of Cream to tone it down even more:coffee:.

Some other flavors you might also like, well, there's always a "next order" :teehee:.

INW Shisha Strawberry 2% + INW Biscuit 2%
(That Biscuit just works with so many things)

Might come close with FA Strawberry 2% + FA Cookie 3%, (but I haven't tried that combo yet)

TFA Brown Sugar (nice for adding some sweetness and baked effect)

Kinda like FA Brandy too, but I don't really get the "brandy part".

just too strong/heavy,, i ended up adding 10mls of base and will let it set for a week or more. now i likely would have liked it just fine when i first stopped smoking........but not so much now. since i was expecting the espresso to be strong i thought i would be ok having it play the jr in the recipe with cream as the sr.................nope,, i need to cut the espresso way down.

Congratulations on your liberation from cigarettes, I'm at 6m,10d. Vapin' like a fiend.

If I had access to your stash.. I'd do a pineapple upside down cake and sub the Jamaican rum and joy for brown sugar... need to get me some of that nonna cake I thinks... so maybe a 4%cake, 1-2%pa and 2% rum/joy.

Definitely get yourself some fruits..im loving juicy peach and banana cream, strawberry ripe/sweet with cheesecake and graham cracker and Fuji, with apple pie and cinnamon Danish.

my dailies are ry4 double and pistachio or hazelnut and Bavarian cream. most of my stuff is rounded out with a bit of vanilla cream/swirl, koolada or ethyl maltol for coolin' or sweetn'n up.

not bad- tried the Catalan Cream by itself,, it was ok,, definitely has a lighter 'up there tone' than the rum. i never had creme brulee',,, it never appealed to me,, custard looking stuff never does.........except tapioca :)

Catalan Cream (FA)
0.43ml
15drops
4.25%

Berryl (Raspberry) (FA)
0.08ml
3drops
0.75%



edit,,,,,,,,,,10 minutes after this post,, this one is starting to grow on me pretty good

I am not using it to make clones but rather get ideas on new creations. Starting to look like a vape shop with all the bottles here.

I just ran to one of my Vape Shops because he saves the empties for me! I pay him a buck a glass dropper bottle and he always does me right. Today I got 60ML of e-Liquids with very interesting descriptions.

i have not used any alcohols in the ejuices...........i do like SweetLeaf Stevia plain and Sweetleaf Stevia English Toffee.

bought some real nice coffee beans trying to make my own coffee blend,,,,,,,,,,but all that did was gunk up the coils.

had an episode where the family pranked me with A1 sauce,,,,,,,,,,not good btw.......

i have mixed a fair share of LorAnns'........some good some 'meh'

not too bad 10ml w 2mg nic, may need more pineapple or some sweetener


Coconut
0.15ml
6 drops
1.5%

pineapple
0.15ml
6drops
1.5%

Jamaican Rum (FA)
0.15ml
6drops
1.5%

Vanilla Tahiti (FA)
0.06ml
3drops
0.6%

Try cutting the Vanilla Tahiti back to 0.03ml then add in 0.02ml of Sweetner from FA. That may help balance this one out. Not that I exactly know much on mixing. * chuckles *

This is one of HeadinClouds's recipes since I tried it I have made hundreds of ml. it's fantastic but you will need a few flavors

HIC's Vanilla Nut Coffee


1% FA Espresso
1% FA Vienna Cream
1% FA Fresh Cream
.5% Fa Nut Mix Or FA Hazelnut Or half of ea.
.5% FA Vanilla Classic

I like it a little stronger @ X 1.5 its fantastic either way ( Thanks Again HIC )

All credit goes to @HeadInClouds

i have ultimate respect and admiration for HeadInClouds...........i 'eavesdrop him/her' as much as possible,, but wont bother them,

i notice s/he is max vg like myself....but i wondered about their nic,, not the brand but the concentration/dilution rate (i dont have their brand yet).....ie,, mine is 48mg cut to 1 or 2mg,,,,,,,,,,,,,is there enough dif to affect pop's in flavor?

what is the mod style? i use a topbox now with .50-.70 ohm rayon,,i soon will be with a SXK RDTA.......

this last sunday i vaped 60+ mls working on recipes...........by the 45ml.. i am sure my tastebuds were just tired,, but no vapors tongue!(yeah rayon!!!)............i think my current flavors are too 'heavy/similar' to taste a noticeable flavor/recipe change.

i have what seems like a simple goal,, create 3-7 simple vapes with 1 to 4 flavors to become my adv...........

while i can greatly appreciate all of the work that goes into creating so many elaborate recipes,, it isnt my goal. i am willing to pay for premium blends as a treat and tasty enough diy for my own use.


this may sound bad,, and in no way do want this to be an insult to all of the good mixers in the vape world,, but when i smoked i never really put much thought into it......and vaping and hobby side of it has taken a large portion of my free time...........at the expense of other hobbies/interests i really enjoy and want to return to............its almost a joke in the house now.. since Nov2015,,,,,,,,,all of my interests have died............but they havent...........i need to return to them for life balance. :)
