Just wanted to post this to see how others may want to try it and possibly improve it. The hardest part about mixing and testing is knowing when to stop, take a step back, and see where you are at. I am satisfied at the moment but there is always room for improvement. I am pretty new at mixing and have been reading the hell out of some threads to understand flavor strengths and what flavors will boost or separate other flavors.
-
Milk: I wanted to take a different route then the usual Milky flavors I have seen. I had seen where you can boil down Condensed Milk and get something close to Caramel. I went backwards with that idea and decided French Vanilla would go well with it for a Milk Flavor.
-
Cereal: Lucky Leprechaun has a small grainy cheerios flavor which I used the AP to boost this.
-
Fruity / Marshmallows: Again the Lucky Leprechaun has a fruity Freeze Dried Sugary/Marshmallow taste which isn't as fruity as I like for a vape flavor. I added the Strawberry Ripe and Blueberry Wild because they are the more subtle fruit flavors that will not over power the original fruity taste of the Lucky Leprechaun. Added the Cotton Candy TFA because it is just EM which most says will boost the Fruit Flavors. Added Marshmallow/SweetCreme to boost the sweetness.

Be sure to let this steep a couple days like most dessert flavors.
I wanted to make this while waiting on the ingredients for Enyawreklaw's Cereal Milk post since all I have at the moment is TFA. I had vaped a brand from a local shop called Slurp by JUS "milk you get at the bottom of a bowl of fruity pebbles flavor" When I dropped my $25 bottle of this stuff I was ready to go get another. Can't wait...
How is the lucky leprechaun compared to fruit circles? Never got lucky leprechaun from tfa
They are nothing alike. Fruit Circles is very lemon heavy and many people hate it. (I personally like it mixed low and with several creams/etc added) Lucky Lepp. has a slight grainy flavor with a faint hint of the marshmallows.
I get FW Milk in today which actually supposed to be legit milk. I would try this with FW Milk, Lucky Lep, Brown Sugar, and Cheesecake GCC/AP. More fruit add blub/strawberry ripe/orange cream.
Yea, That may make a good flavor, but the problem with Lucky Leprechaun (TPA) 10.0% is that you can overtake it very quickly.
You should try it with those flavors in moderation and see what you come out with. Just remember that Lucky Charms is basically cheerios with a small amount of fruit flavor in the freeze dried marshmallows.
Making this a heavy fruity vape would be a good ejuice, but not true to the original cereal.
How was FW Milk? Really actually decent?
It adds this like... Dryness to mixes. Its hard to explain. I haven't used it at less than 3.0 though. I have two batches of a boosted type juice steeping and the fw one is noticeably drier.
Doesn't sound ideal, but I had to ask -- I guess I'll stick with my tried and true methods. FLV Cream is still by far, IMO, the best single flavor to add the essence of pure milk/cream (no vanilla, cream, custard notes, diketones, or mixing flavors), supplanting FA Fresh Cream for when I want that kind of flavor base.
I know FW has some good flavors, but between their total apathy towards sharing flavoring information about diketones content & %'s, and the massive number of terribad flavors they have, I just really don't find myself wanting to sift through the shitheap and find them, so when I see someone recommending FW ______ that might be relevant to me, I have to ask lol. Thanks for the reply.
I'll give you a hand with this one -- I've been playing with Lucky Leprechaun as a secondary ingredient in cereal mixes lately myself, but I've not tried this type of mix yet. Lucky Charms was always my favorite cereal as a kid. However, I think converting that experience into a vape accurately is gonna be difficult to nail, due primarily to the lack of overt flavorings with oat grain and sweet marshmallows to provide a flavor and texture, in contrast to Fruit Loops or Cap'n Crunch, which have characteristic strong artificial flavorings.
One of the key tricks I worked out in the months of research and testing for my Why So Cereal mix is that 1-3% of TFA Dulce de Leche added to cream/milk flavorings in a cereal (or other) blend is a dead ringer for that sweet, syrupy condensed milk flavor you're chasing. After all, that's the literal translation of 'dulce de leche' basically translates to milk candy, made by a process much like you described. TFA French Vanilla isn't bad, but I personally don't think it's anything like what you're after here. Also not sure what you're using Bavarian Cream for at 0.2%, but I'd wager it's nigh-imperceptible at that concentration.
To offer further advice I'll have to mix it up after work today, so I'll get back with you -- on one condition: I call dibs on the juice name "Leper Loops"!
I agree with what you said. I am VERY new to mixing and really just looking for ideas and feedback. My last order from TFA I had ruined every batch I put my hands on, but it was a great learning experience.
I am hoping that some people make this and use the different flavors in moderation to tweak it. Maybe someone can lower or leave out the french vanilla or lower the percentage let it steep then give an opinion. Possibly even add other things to get it right.
This was a first run for me on this flavor, but I am not disappointed at all. Maybe that comes from inexperience of not knowing what a better flavor is though. :)
I need to try some Dulce de Leche. I never had the real thing to even know about it.
I also need to look for a Trix recipe or I will have to figure out something for it. My Cap, FA, and FW will be here this weekend. I am stoked!
I don't know... The more I vape this the more spot on I feel it is. I haven't tried Looper or Cereal Killa to know what the Milky flavor is like in them, but I think this tastes pretty milky. The French Vanilla in this doesn't remind me of Coffee Mate French Vanilla. I don't taste a strong flavor like that stuff has. I was actually scared to use french vanilla until I smelled my TFA concentrate. It didn't remind me of the coffee-mate stuff which is all I have ever had to compare with.
Sorry I didn't reply to this sooner, but I just mixed a version of yours now -- I've been too busy to mix very much since you posted originally at least til this past week. I'll give you some formal feedback after a few days steeping!
There are a few Trix recipes around, I know there's a couple posted in my Cereal Vapes MegaThread over on VU, but nothing really amazing has every hit me. I'm playing with a couple versions still myself -- I think I posted something about that and TFA's Trix-type flavor, relation to Cuttwood's Bird Brains, here a few weeks back, but that recipe approach posted there is mostly tapped out for good cereal vape combinations of flavors IMO and so I've dropped it for a while to work on some other projects. Always open to new ideas though.
Hey man, be careful with the french vanilla swirl and the caramel, they get quite strong. I probably should have cut them down to 1%. Of course I just did another sub of how I don't like as much flavor as most recipes call for.

I have been mixing for months now and still feel lost at times . LOL
I really hope you like it or at least didn't make too much of it. I also hope you take some knowledge from it and have some better ideas to share with us :)
I read this as Leper's milk and clicked expecting something real horrorshow. Looks good though.
Went through two bottles of it in a week already. I am thinking it may be too light for some vapors. I drip usually at .3 ohms. I really doubt this flavor would be good in an atty, but I could be mistaken. I guess you could bump up the ingredients. Every time I start making anything over %20 I end up not able to taste stuff and start making bad batches of everything.
I drip all the time unless I'm driving, and even then I just usually wait until I'm not driving to vape. I generally strive for 10-15% max, and less if I can get away with it. Some recipes do call for 20% but imo it's not often needed. I'm waiting to order new flavors after payday this month, this may go on the list. I've been getting bored with the usual cereal vapes lately anyways.
