Capella Frosting reviewed by SessionDrummer
submitted over 3 years ago by Session-Drummer

Tested at the listed percentages, on my original SteamCrave RDTA v.1 (the Original), with super simple, and reliable 7 wrap, 24 ga. Kanthal vertical coils. Fresh cotton and burned coils in between every flavor test. Typically tested around 60-75 watts.

Frosting (CAP) 4% (1-16-22) – With FLV’s Frosting being my GOTO Frosting, I was curious to see how CAP’s new Frosting would fare. In two words, Pretty Good !!! Somehow Capella was really able to capture an almost pure Confectioners Sugared Frosting. Not buttery, not rich, but it presented with an almost creamy-ness to it, that might be better described as a “smoothness”. Very clean, somewhat light, but unmistakably a Frosting. Whether or not it had slight vanilla notes may be up to you, and I sometimes got a slight hint of it, but not strong enough to be called a Vanilla Frosting. Just a very clean, fairly neutral frosting, that was just a perfect capture of confectioners sugar. @ 4% it felt about as full as you could get it, yet, it was still somewhat of a lighter flavor. Sweetness was a few ticks above mid-level, but hey, it’s a Frosting !!! Nicely done, with nothing off-putting, and very accurate. If you need some nice finishing touches to add to your bakeries, or a sweet kick, this one, should be in your cart. Fluffy, light, accurate, and sweet, what else could you need in a frosting ? Easily a 9.5/10.

Well looks like I'll save a few bucks from buying Flv and just get Caps instead..I know it requires more but damn Flv is expensive as hell! And their not all 5 star concentrates..some aren't even as good as FW for example depending what it is 😆
