####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.
Wasnt general custard at the alamo
I can't tell if you're joking but in case you're not, General Custer was born about three years after the battle of the Alamo. He might have gone there later as a tourist or something while his forces were occupying Austin during Reconstruction.
I'm probably going to get arrested by the flavor police for saying this, but my broken tastebuds can't stand INW Custard. I also get pepper from TPA Vanilla Custard II, RIP :( I think my personal faves right now are CHF Custard + PUR Vanilla Custard. FA Custard Premium is of course a staple custard, it's thick, rich, buttery + so delicious. CAP Vanilla Custard is an oldie but still a decently goodie. MB Legendary Custard doesn't quite live up to it's namesake, but it is decent + workable. FA Custard Extra 1 + 2 don't stand up on their own as custards, but I've been venturing into mixing w them as "custard additives" + have been pleasantly surprised. VT Warm Custard is pretty good too, but stay far away from VT Creamy Custard.
EDIT I didn't realize Vanilla Custards don't count for this week
One of my favorite custard combos is FA Custard premium at 3% and INW custard at around 1.5-2%. A little TFA cotton candy and some super sweet and I'm good to go. I add fruits to this combo all the time when throwing together a quick custard combo
Love me some custard now, loaded. It uses INW custard in a SnV custard, is updated for current flavor offerings, and I’m impatient so I can’t wait 30 days. It’s my custard, and I need it NOW
This is an amazing Custard Cream Base by DanielTheVapeMan
Co. | Flavor | %
---|---|----
INW | Custard | 2
PUR | Simply Cake | 2
TFA | Vanilla Custard II | 3
I didn’t have PUR Simply Cake so I subbed WF Angel Cake in one batch and WF Fluffy White Cake in another. I talked briefly with Daniel about subbing and said he saw no problem as it's mainly the custard holding the weight. You can vape this solo.
Since this week Noted will be about plain custards, I'd like to share this recipe of mine: Max Savage's Dirty honey Custard It was part of the developed tribute I've made right after they announced they would be stop doing the show, It's a tribute to max, since he like tobaccos, this is custard forward with a touch of tobacco and a honey finish with my two of my favorite custards of all time, FA Premium Custard and INW Custard, where both play a huge role in this recipe, It's worth trying, I like to vape it on MTL devices, but works nice on DL as well.
FA custard Premium easy. I use to complain about recipes that had this in it because at the time you couldn't get it at Bullcity and you had to go to Chiefs which is in the UK. Finally I got it from Chiefs. I have to say it makes everything better. You don't need much 1% is good or you can go higher. It mostly adds texture. It's thick. No bad off notes. I don't know if it'll kill me or not but it's good.
Note the new disclaimer in bold at the bottom of the "win a prize" section. That has to happen now because we had someone flake out after offering to add a bunch of new flavors to the prize pot. This is why we can't have nice things without putting disclaimers on them.
