Mouthfeel
Heavy on the tongue right on the nose with a moderately dense mouth feel 7 out of 10.
Creamy smooth and has a Airy mouth feel.
Throat Hit 4/10
Flavor Properties
Very sweet and buttery cream. Heavy on the diary reminds me of custard flavorings with a moderate vanilla flavoring.
Relatable Flavors
Remind me of Boston cream pie fillings, and the gooey inside of a toasted marshmallow.
Position In The Recipe
A excellent base flavoring for any cream recipe. Can also be used to accent sweet and creamy notes and other cream flavorings by keeping the percentage low.
Off Flavors
None
Pairings
Bakeries, creams, tobaccos, candies, cereals, fruit flavorings, and spices to name a few. (the list is pretty much anything in your inventory)
Recipe
Obviously not one of mine but have been enjoying this recipe as of late. Be forewarned the 10-day steep seems to take forever.

Notes
This is an incredibly useful and versatile flavoring that every mixer should have in their collection, I personally prefer the flavor West offering it is slightly weaker and much sweeter. That said you're not always looking for sweetness when trying to hit that creamy profile.

I always avoid looking these up until after I've written a review, and enjoy finding out something I did not know before that explains some of my perceptions on the flavor.
And as always where I got mine.

You suck. I was totally interested in learning more about the band, Cream, but when I clicked on that link it was just a stupid article about Bavarian Cream that I've already read.

Am I the only one who tastes maple when this is used at a high enough %? Not necessarily a bad thing, depending on what you're after, but I taste it.
Last night, I cracked open Snake Skin only a few days into its steep to go with my imperial stout. So freaking delicious! I'm glad I finally decided to pick up bavarian cream after a year of mixing.
Awesome, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Which one was that again? The kiwi one? If you thought it was good after three days you really need to save some for next week.
I might have already told you this story, but I'm going through all my recipes and adding them to ATF whenever I've got a few minutes. Most are still very WIP, but the few I think might be worth sharing I've made public. I made that whole serpentine series a long time ago. They could almost certainly be improved now that I've got more flavors and experience, but I still think they're pretty good and they're successful in the sense that what they were meant to be: improved versions of Seduce Juice's "snake" line. Well, that's what Oil, Venom, Bite, and Eyes (pear, peach, apple, and banana/cinnamon) are. Blood, Skin, and Pit were never made by Seduce Juice but should have been, because strawberry, kiwi, and to perhaps a lesser degree, watermelon, all sit really well on top of that Bavarian Cream/coconut base. Seduce Juice did make another serpentine sauce, Snake Charmer, but I never remade it because I hated it. However, now that I have better mangoes to work with it's a safe bet that I'll try to tackle that one pretty soon.
Yeah it is the kiwi one. I dripped it a couple times and grudgingly put it back in the box. Now I just have to save myself one of these beers for when it is ready because the pairing is divine. I'm pretty excited for Snake Charmer. On that note, I much prefer Tamamango after a few days (as opposed to s & v) and an official review of your frosted lemonade is coming soon.
You should know by now I usually only test that the one percentage then go back and have things in if I learn something as for the typo whoops 😘
I definitely get maple from it. I use it at 3% in my custard recipe and get hints of maple but I'm not complaining.
Bad ass review. Couldn't agree more. This is one of my favorite flavors overall and my go to for creamy addiction to flavors.
How do you think it compares to TFA cheesecake (Graham Cracker Crust)? Like if I want a fruit and cream, what do you think would be the main differences between the two, b/c I've always used cheesecake over Bavarian cream. I've always seen BC as a supplementary cream, not a main note, but I've never tried it by itself.
TFA cheesecake graham crust imparts maltiness. It also has a slight cheesiness to it. TFA Bavarian Cream is buttery, creamy, rich with a slight vanilla tinge. You can't use it as a main note because going above 3% will give you a chemical taste.
New mixer here, tried Bavarian cream in some ry4d mixes but it doesn't come nearly as smooth and creamy as vanilla bean ice cream, as I found out later. Am I wrong, should I give it another go with higher than 4%? I'm thinking it's a tad too sweet and dairy.
5% Bav. Cream, 5% Kiwi Double, 5% mango (all TFA).
One of the first recipes I ever made on my own a couple years ago. Had a request for it a few weeks back by a customer after forgetting about it. Could use some tweaking for sure but I cant stop from having a bottle on hand at all times since .
Freaking love that bavarian cream
