This used to be my favorite icecream, it is a creamsicle on the fruitier side. It combines wonderful passionfruit, juicy orange and creamy vanilla.
Recipe:
- 5% Passionfruit Cap
- 3% Creamsicle Cap
- 3% Vanilla Swirl TFA
Optional:
- .5% Koolada
- Sweetener, preferably Super Sweet by Capella
For the owners of a printer or access to a copy shop, have a nice label.
Let's look into the choices of the concentrates.
Passionfruit made by Capella is the hearthnote because the slightly tart flavour is the closest i could find, and i used it at 5% to make it the main character as it should be the fruity main note.
Cap Creamsicle is a flavour that needs a lot of steep, and it is a good combination of orange notes and the creamy vanilla i needed. Other Oranges were to bold. In previous versions i tried my luck with Vanilla Bean Gelato and FA Orange, but it was always slightly off and therefore unsatisfactory. Also, i tried to use the minimum of different concentrates to help with steeping and avoid the flavour becoming a muddled mess.
The TFA Vanilla Swirl is a workhorse and works good in combination with creamsicle as it adds more vanilla and a good mouthfeel, just whats needed to round out the recipe.
A five day steep is recommended, but not mandatory. The Cap Creamsicle gets smoother with time.
I am glad to be able to share this recipe before summer hits with full force, enjoy.
What did you use to design the label?
Paint.net, very low learning curve and has add-ons.
Is that CAP Creamsicle the Orange Creamsicle? Edit: Going off the label I guess it is :)
Yes, thats the one.
Thanks. Just mixed up a 30ml. What sort of steep time would you recommend?
Smells nice & looking forward to trying it. Thanks for the share.
