####Q: How do flavors get put on the schedule?
####A: Requests and suggestions from people like YOU!
If there's something you'd like to see, just post a request in this thread. You can request both a specific flavor profile and where it lands on the calendar.
VT Banana Custard has lied to us. WF Coconut Custard is the only real fruity custard.
gavel crashes in a desk made of skulls
!!PICKMETOADD20!!
WF Coconut custard takes the win for me in this round.
I guess you didn't notice, but there's a new way to do that - so Dave doesn't forget like he did last time you were so generous. Look for the details in the original post - there are some keywords you can add to your post to make things auto-magically happen.
I'll use one myself since I'm not a fruity custard kinda guy => !!IChangedMyMind!! (see reply)
CHF Lemon Custard is delicious, WF Coconut Custard is amazing. VT Banana Custard is a total misnomer as it's basically just a perfectly creamy banana.
I want to ask this to everyone viewing this thread:
If you had to pick only 1 custard to have in your collection, which one would it be?
Oof that’s a hard one. I love FA Custard premium and INW Custard but mostly only combined with each other/other custards. I guess if I only could have one, it would be TFA Vanilla Custard II.
seconding tfa vc ii but i would like to ask you, someone sensitive to pepper ice creams, if you get any pepper from it? because that is a common complaint i get about tfa vc ii
When vaping inw cherimoya, "fruit custard" is the first thing that comes to my mind.
So if I had to pick only one custard to use, I would probably pick cap vc1 to go in a recipe that I had mixed up a few months ago. I'm really enjoying the hell out of jungle flavors ultimate strawberry, and cupcake worlds Devon cream is freaking amazing. So to make this strawberry pop, I chose sasami pear at a quarter of a percent. To me, adding the cap vc1 to the Devon cream would really make a top-notch dessert flavor. Thinking 3 %Devon, 2 % Ultimate SB, 2% VC1, .25 % pear. For those without a GC homogenizer, I would probably throw it in a drawer for 30 plus days, just because the cap vc1 really shines after a good steep. !!PickMeToAdd20!!
Not sure what a Fruity Custard is but I’d ask if lime and coconut would meld in a custard. Lime’s a fruit, coconut’s a fruit. Like, just take hashslingingslashur‘s Leche de Coco, take out all the creams, add your lime, like Tahity cold pressed and a solid custard combo like TFA Custard II and FA Custard Prem, sandwich that with anything cakey, princess cake, white fluffy cake, yellow cake, doesn’t matter. It’s just an idea.
Will always shout the praises of Vanilla Gorilla from the rooftops. SnV custard with VT Banana Custard in it? Yes, please.
I could vape through a 100ml bottle of VT Banana Custard concentrate in under a year no doubt. I vape the "ish" out of that stuff!
do you vape other flavours before finishing a bottle? I finish a 100 ml bottle in 2-3 weeks.
100ml bottle of concentrate or a 100ml bottle of mixed e liquid? I vape 30-40mls a day of prepared e juice. But in terms of concentrates, I probably use less than 4mls of flavoring a day.
The only flavor I’m using at this time is the WF coconut custard which I’m vaping most days in my “lovely pear of coconuts” recipe.
I know I need a good banana custard in the near future. The noted videos on YouTube are typically the first place I go when I’m researching flavors… I may need to watch this one live.
You won the flavors! Congratulations! PM me for details.
Also, you won an extra $20 from /u/OdieDoodah - talk to him about that. Double Congratulations!
Wf coconut custard is phenomenal, & I can't do custards much anymore. Also vso custard is phenomenal, because it's just plain custard. None to very little vanilla notes, & a small amount of egginess.
I love WF Coconut Custard, but I can't find the custard in there. It's just like a really good creamy coconut cream. Like the Coco Lopez you'd use in a mixed drink.
