(recipe) Bananaberry Cream by Varden - Simple Banana Raspberry Custard
submitted over 8 years ago by vardenslytha

So, I am a kinda new mixer (mixing for over a year, just got confidence to show off)

http://e-liquid-recipes.com/recipe/1127101/Bananaberry+Cream+by+Varden

INW Raspberry 1% TFA Banana Cream 2% TFA Vanilla Custard 3%

Flovour profile is something between banana raspberry Milkshake/ Custard without too much of bakery going on. Its great all day vape, it's not too complex to go with it full day in a tank, but not too shallow for dripper sitting, to get lots of flavour.

My idea for this was to make Inawera Raspberry more creamy, and found TFA banana cream a really good flavour for that. Vanilla Custard gives it that little needed body with kindoff harshness and slight vanilla notes. Overall i really enjoy this, and it's perfect shake and vape, but giving it some time will pump up creaminess

I was trying to incorporate raspberry to not overwhelm the flavour, and using 5% i got more refreshing taste, but it kinda took over all other flavours If you really like raspberry side of it you cpould mix with 2%, but anything more just gives only Raspberry flavour. I tried adding TFA Milk or CAP French vanilla, but it didn't give it that body it gets from vanilla custard. You could up the Banana Cream as its really versatile flavour, but 2% was a sweetspot for me.

I just recently made a batch of Rhodonite by enyawreklaw and after going through about 50ml or so of it I was wondering how this raspberry from INW would pair with a banana cream and a VC so I will give this a shot. Thank you.

Is there any banana flavors that dont taste like runts yet? I've never experimented with banana flavoring in my own recipes, but I've disliked nearly all of banana based juice's I've ever tried because they all tasted so chemically to me.

Side note, interesting article on banana flavoring http://io9.gizmodo.com/debunking-the-myth-of-the-fake-banana-flavor-1629459201

I tried Inawera's banana and it tasted chemically too, that one is nothing like it. Try this TPA banana cream, it can be the one just for you

I disagree with him tbh, TFA banana cream is nice, but still has that foam banana artificial taste. Best and only banana IMO is FA's, though it's quite weak, needs ~5%

I swear INW Banana is exactly the same as TPA Banana Ripe.

Didn't try TPA Banana ripe either, but as you say so I will most likely not buy it any time soon

> User Reports: 1: Those aren't notes.

It's awesome that you finally got the confidence to show off something you're proud of, and that raspberry + banana cream combo is very interesting, but this is really pushing the limits of rule #6.

> Recipes belong in the monthly thread, UNLESS they offer SIGNIFICANT development notes or other info that helps mixers up their game.

Can you edit your post to either add some more beefed up flavor notes or to tell us about the process you went through in earlier variations leading up to recipe being perfected?

is this edit enough, or should it be moved to monthly?

That's better, but you should also post it in the monthly recipe thread anyway, for posterity.

Ok I'll be sure to do that with my future recipies

I'm going to try this with LA Banana Cream and CAP Vanilla Custard. Looks like it would be tasty though.

I just mixed up a 30ml, with LA BC and Cap VC v1 substituted in. It's for my GF and I'm too lazy to coil and wick right now, so I will report back with how it turned out once she fills up a tank of it.

Ah well, I all ready mixed it and got a new coil and wick. I'll give you quick rundown.

26 Gauge Kanthal, 36 Gauge Kanthal Clapton, Single coil, .95 ohm. Goon RDA 2/3 airflow @ 40 Watts. Steep Time: 9 hours (I mixed it and fell asleep)

Holy Crap it's good. Like really good. The Raspberry is prominent but held in check by the BC. VC v1 helps enhance the creamy flavor of BC without giving it a custard flavor. It really is a good Raspberry Banana Cream.

Edit: Mixed at 60/40. This is now in my rotation. It has joined the ranks with my Blueberry Yogurt and Pineapple Fanta.
