Flavor of the Week's Berry Special Extravaganza starts Strawng with North American Brand Strawberries
submitted about 6 years ago by ID10-TThe Kingmaker

As always, the purpose of this thread is to gather the community to explore a category of flavor and its many uses. And it's also to have FUN!

Post recipes containing this week's Flavor of the Week, as the star or in a supporting role, with or without development notes. Talk about other people's recipes that use it. Compare and contrast different manufacturers' versions of the FOTW. Ask for help using that flavor in general or to achieve something specific, offer advice, brainstorm ideas, consider substitutions, suggest pairings... really anything at all as long as it's on topic.

#This week's flavor is.... New World-brand Strawberries (TFA, CAP, FLV, WF, LB, etc)

How did that get to be the FOTW?

It was requested! ... Well, "strawberry" was requested, but there are so many strawberry flavors I broke them up into three weeks.

If you're not interested in the upcoming FOTWs, please take this opportunity and comment to request one that interests you (or send me a PM to do that).

Past FOTW posts can be found here

The NOTED podcasts, which are basically video FOTWs, are listed on this sheet, maintained by /u/apexified

Next week's flavor will be: Old World-brand Strawberries (FA, JF, INW, etc)

The week after that will be: Far East-brand Strawberries (FE/SC, HS, HC, VT, etc)

The week after that will be: Energy Drinks

The week after that will be: Sugary Candy (Pixie Sticks, Sweet Tarts)

The week after that will be: Eggnog

The week after that will be: Red Licorice & Swedish Fish

The week after that will be: Pound & Butter Cake

The week after that will be: Sponge & Fluffy Cake

The week after that will be: Chocolate Cake

The week after that will be: New World-brand Custards (TFA, CAP, FLV, WF, LB, PUR, etc)

The week after that will be: Old World-brand Custards (FA, JF, INW, etc)

by UnappreciatedRobotabout 6 years agoI have no idea what I'm doing

I have a few:

CAP Ripe Strawberries: I only tested this at 3% and after a one week steep. I bought this specifically to try u/kindground's What the Yam?! In my SFT, this is basically a better version of TFA Strawberry (Ripe) to me. It is a fairly well concentrated flavor, 3% was plenty by itself. I got a sweet and realistic strawberry from this and it was pretty good by itself. Since it was pretty sweet on its own, I figured it had EM and was afraid it would fade quickly. However, after letting What the Yam?! steep for three weeks, it still held its own with the other flavors. I think this can be used to update a lot of old recipes that used TFA Strawberry (Ripe) and when you want a realistic strawberry that is not going to fade on you after just a few days.

TFA Strawberry (Ripe): There are plenty of reviews on this flavor already and pretty much everybody has it. A good realistic strawberry that has a tendency to fade very quickly.

NR Kigola: I really enjoy this flavor. This is a mix of strawberry and kiwi, but leans much heavier on the strawberry. Here is u/mysticrossell's review. (S)he seemed to get more kiwi than I did, but I also tested at a lower %. Other than getting more strawberry and less kiwi, I would say his/her review was exactly what I got out of it.

Thanks for info on CAP ripe strawberries. I heard it was kinda stemmy but glad to know it's got lasting power

It is pretty natural, so I could see people saying it has a stemmy taste, but I didn’t get that. I also didn’t do any in depth testing of this one, just the one test at 3% and only vaped about 1-2ml of it

This is awesome. This is how I learn by mixing others' recipes as well. I'm so glad my recipe helped you learn something.

Love me some INW Strawberry and FA Strawberry together usually 1:1 ratio. Never fades and will stand up to anything you throw at it.

I do this and add CAP Sweet Strawberry. It's the only way I can taste strawberry.

INW Strawberry is my favorite strawberry! Glad there’s someone else out there who enjoys it, too.

Wow , thanks for these great lists , very helpful . Nic River has a bunch of new flavoring company's that have very little if any reviews and most have a variety of different strawberry flavors .

​

Hopefully they get added to these great lists . Another thing that would be incredibly helpful is having a list of what strawberry flavors work best with other strawberry flavors because some guys are amazing at being able to tell which strawberry types DO NOT go well together.

​

Thanks again for the effort and time required putting these lists together you have no idea just how helpful and how much people appreciate it , very very grateful.

If you like them you should check this out -> Flavor Facts Spreadsheet
 
It has ALL of the lists that you've seen on FOTW and more that you haven't. New links are being added for the flavors including DAAP/Sugar/etc warnings, links to pertinent posts on this sub, and timestamped links from Noted, Taste of Concrete, and DIYorDie.

Love me some VTA glazed strawberries. To me, It’s like JF sweet strawberry and TFA strawberry’s love child. It’s so jammy sweet and syrupy like a strawberry couli or that strawberry syrup with Strawberry chunks that’s poured on top of a McDonald’s sundae.

I hope this flavour gets discussed more often. It’s tasty!

I don’t know why you are getting downvoted so badly.

You just stated your opinion. Your opinion sucks, but it’s still an opinion lol.

FOTW is strawberries. Nothing against juthinc but the comment is totally useless

Agree. This one is fairly benign . It's when a noob has a question about a strawberry or vanilla concentrate and he tells them to toss it is when he crosses the line.
