White Chocolate Raspberry problems

submitted about 10 years ago by Kdhayes89

The recipe I've made is:

10% white chocolate 5% Raspberry 4% Vanilla bean ice cream 2% Cheesecake Graham Cracker 3 drops Ethyl Maltol

All TFA concentrates.

I can taste the raspberry easy enough but the white chocolate is almost non-existent. Will that come with steeping? Because I've never really had to steep chocolate flavours before but it's the first time I've just white chocolate. Or is the EM sweeting the raspberry and not having an effect on the WC?

TFA white chocolate needs to steep for some time and I would lower the percentage to some where around 5-8%

Sounds like a plan. If it steeps well I'll drop the % accordingly. But I'm such an impatient asshole.

Raspberry White Chocolate is a flavor I've been wanting to make for a while now, but have held back from getting TFA White Chocolate because I've heard it's not that great. I'd love to hear what others have to say about this, I'd love a nice white chocolate base.

Well, I'm not impressed yet. I'm mixing it at 50% of my entire flavour concentrate base and can't taste it at all.

I have TFA white chocolate and it really thins out my juice at over 5%, I mainly just use it to add a toasty effect because it doesnt do much else.

yeah, give the white chocolate time before you up the %

I tried and tried and tried some more. Prob toyed with that white choc/raspberry combo for 3 months straight. The TFA concentrate just never panned out. I gave up and didnt look elsewhere for a new concentrate, but I'd recommend you do so.

When I made white chocolate raspberry it was awful at first. I threw it in a drawer and forgot about it. I found it a month later and gave it another shot and it was delicious. Just needed a long steep

Starting to get that impression. I hate waiting. I suppose I'll have to keep it to the side and work on something else in the mean time.

Did it have the white chocolate taste? I've stayed away from WC because every review said to skip it.

But IMO WC would open the doors for a shitload of diff profiles that haven't been reached yet.

White chocolate and banana can only be a tongue orgasim.

Marshmellow and/or toasted marshmellow helps out white chocolate a lot!

Oooo, that is a great idea. I'll swap it out with the VBIC. I used that as a complimentary but it obviously hasn't worked too well. How much should I be looking to add?

If you drop the VBIC, I would lower the raspberry to 4% and the white chocolate to something between 6 to 8%, then add 2% marshmallow. Add up to 1% additional marshmallow to taste, anything over 3 would take away from the chocolate I'd think. The toasted marshmallow can be subbed for a different taste, it would augment the grahmcracker crust in the cheesecake

We have found that TFA White Chocolate 5%, EM 5% & Marshmallow at 3% with a steep time of 6 wks gave us almost a perfect white chocolate base mix. It's not perfect, we are still working on it. The peppery taste is gone tho, just not (Edit to add (because my fingers are fat and i accidentally hit the wrong button) to where we are satisfied with the overall creaminess. Hope this helps. We are hoping to find an awesome WC base to mix with several different fruits.
