Let’s make a UK cheesecake!
submitted about 7 years ago by hillidge

The cheesecake journey started when I taste tested inw yeswecheesecake and vt pudding base at 3% each.

INW Yeswecheesecake - Awesome! Such a lovely cheesecake flavour. But... something was not quite there. It was too smooth on the inhale and wasn’t hitting the spot, needed more weight to the flavour.

VT Pudding base - This is good but I found it had a chemically taste on the back end. But.... I had a “this is what yeswecheesecake needs. Wonder if if the cheesecake would hide the chemical taste!?!” Moment!

The cheese of the cheesecake.

Round 1. Mix them up together, 5 days steep. Result - Mmm no way there yet, basis of the flavour is there, needs more density, bit of sweetening too. Chemical taste has gone tho! Let’s introduce TFA marshmallow. This may enchance the bottom end of the cheesecake with the toasty ness - no it didn’t, scrap that!

Round 2. Let’s not go there!!!

Round 3. oOO cream milky undertone - wow, now we are taking a step in the right direction, this time round I added too much cream. But the cheesecake needs more rich smooth density mouth feel, like you would with a cheesecake straight out of the fridge! So out comes LA cream cheese icing! Let me tell you now, over do this and you will have a LA cci pudding! Mix, Steep 5 days. Result- too much LA cci over powering and too much OOO cream! Adjust these and I think we are there!!!!

ROUND 4. Mad thought, had a “If I add a little amount of FA lemon Sicily to add a slight twang to the cheese!?!” Adjust percentages, add the lemon, mix and wait!

Whilst getting the cheese right I’m trying to get the biscuit base to sit right in the mix too.. oh the drama! In the real world you melt some butter, smash up some digestive biscuits (google them if you don’t know them) mix them and put them in the bottom of the pan.

In the world of diy e juice this is how it works..... JF biscuit for the butteryness and biscuit, FA cookie adds a slight crunchy cooked flavour. Thought about CAP SL biscuit but I swear I get a coconut undertone to it! Finally CAP ceral27 adds a grain to it. And I love that stuff!!! I have thought about adding TPA kettle corn and lowering the JF biscuit. Might do but I’m happy with what I got right know.

So in conclusion..... This needs a 7 day minimum steep. It starts to fall into place after that. After 10 Days. You are cheescaking!!! I think it’s sweet enough. An American pallet may tell me different. I’m vaping this at 70/30 on a Augvape Merlin mini. So maybe flavours may differ on other tanks!

The smell from the bottle. Cheesecake mmmmm, then biscuit base moulds into the smell, like a slice of heaven.

Taste. I get a thick, sweet, velvety rich creamy cheesecake with a slight tang on the last part of the inhale. On the exhale the biscuit base comes alive. I’m liking this a lot!!! I May mess about with the biscuit base only because... I probably will, not that it needs it.

The recipe - THE COCKNEY CHEESECAKE.

JF biscuit - 2% CAP cereal27 - 3% FA Cookie 0.5% OOO Cream milky undertone (pg) - 0.5% LA Cream cheese icing - 0.5% FA lemon Sicily - 0.2% VTA Pudding base - 4% INW yes we cheesecake - 3.5%

Feel free to make it, love it, criticise it, adjust it if you need to, let me know tho what and why. Someone make it review it for me please - would love feedback good and bad!! Apologise for any spelling or grammar mistakes, I’m a cockney, english is not a strong point hahaha!

A chicago company use to sell a cheesecake that instead of a fruit used a bomb pop flavoring on top of it. It was amazing
