DIY Bakery Recipes

I've been vaping on this for about 3 months now. One of my current favorite biscuit juices.

Queen's Cookie Jar


Biscuit (INAWERA) 1%


Pear (FA) 1%


Strawberry Shisha (INAWERA) 2.5%


Sugar Cookie V1(CAP) 3.5%

Simple and delicious.
I mix it with JF Biscuit instead of INW, but that's just personal preference.

Wow, great ratings on ELR. One could probably fill it with other fruit jams as well?
Presume that CAP Sugar Cookie V1? Please edit your post appropriately.

I haven't tried, but I bought blueberry to try. It will probably work very well. I edited to V1. Apologies, I never use V2, has become habit to just use V1.

It's been linked and talked about in other threads and a lot of people are mixing it but I didn't find it indexed in either the Bakery or Dessert threads. I think it deserves an index for posterity and for new DIYers coming into the scene. Seeing as I am the most vocal shill for it, I will do the honours. Allow me to introduce...
*drumroll*
... tranceinate's Simply Cannoli. First, some background on the profile courtesy of Wikipedia:

Cannoli are Italian pastries of the Sicily region. The singular is cannolo meaning "little tube", with the etymology stemming from the Greek kanna (reed). Cannoli originated in Sicily and are a staple of Sicilian cuisine. They are also popular in Italian-American cuisine. In Italy, they are commonly known as "cannoli siciliani", Sicilian cannoli.

Cannoli consist of tube-shaped shells of fried pastry dough, filled with a sweet, creamy filling usually containing ricotta. They range in size from "cannulicchi", no bigger than a finger, to the fist-sized proportions typically found south of Palermo, Sicily, in Piana degli Albanesi.

Some background about the recipe's development: Simply Cannoli emerged from the Cannoli round of Enyawreklaw's first DIYorDie World Mixers Competition. Entrants were required to create a cannoli recipe using no more than six flavours, limited to FA, TFA, FW, Cap and Inw Biscuit. You can find all ten entries here. Apart from the plaudits it received as the most popular of the Cannoli Round recipes, Simpy Cannoli also earned 4th place in Wayne's "Top Recipes for 2016" listing. Considering that all the other recipes in the list were developed by their creators with no ingredient or time restrictions, it makes tranceinate's effort all the more impressive.

tranceinate's recipe:
0.6% Inw Biscuit
0.75% FA Joy
2% Cap NY Cheesecake
0.4% FA Nonna's Cake
4% Cap Vanilla Custard v1
0.4% FA Vienna Cream

It's a simple profile with Inw Biscuit creating the pastry shell, Joy adding the 'fried dough' feel, Cap NY Cheesecake suggesting ricotta, the Cap VC1 and Vienna adding creaminess, and the Nonna's Cake to provide an "Italian touch" of zestiness. The first thing that stands out about the recipe is how finely balanced it is. Recipe developers often work in half-percent ranges. When a developer uses 0.4% or 0.6%, it suggests that a great deal of testing and balancing has gone into it. The second stand-out feature is that the recipe was developed under stringent ingredient and time limits. The third and, for me, the key feature is that the recipe uses two ingredients that mixers are wary of and find tricky to use: FA Joy and FA Nonna's Cake. A common criticism of mixers is when they use flop-proof ingredients and create 'safe' recipes. Simply Cannoli cannot be accused of that.

The beauty of the recipe is that it uses common ingredients. Many mixers will have bought Joy and Nonna's Cake, mainly due to rave reviews by HIC, before finding out that these flavours aren't quite as brilliant and versatile as they may have hoped. If you have Joy and Nonna's Cake lying around and have been less than impressed with them standalone, or can't find recipes that use them, Simply Cannoli is a godsend that will transform those unused flavours into a deliciously creamy and tasty ADV.

Simply Cannoli is also a very economical recipe at just 8.15% total flavouring. It containers no sweeteners and achieves a surprisingly full and delicious flavour without any trickery or heavy coil-gunking. So it encompasses just about every characteristic that I want from a DIY recipe.

What's the steep time on this bad boy? I see Custard so I'm assuming around a month?

+1 for cannoli, it's quite good. Not to derail the thread, but quick question for the other Simply Cannoli mixers out there: do your mixes also darken considerably after about 2 weeks?
 
It does darken a bit. Not as much as Funfetti but there is noticeable colour change.

Great write up @RichJB ! This almost tempts me to try DIY again!
 
Nice one @RichJB I love Trancinate’s Simply Cannoli vape. I did do it a little differently because the INW Biscuit I have disagrees with me. I substituted with FW Biscotti and it is still good. Also I steep it for 20 days.
 
Interesting sub @Warlock and glad to hear it works. Usually folks sub Inw Biscuit with JF Biscuit, have you tried that one? From HashSlingingSlashur's notes at Reddit:

Flavor description Sweet, buttery, crunchy cookie. Dense mouthfeel and very nicely balanced between the sweet and savory aspects. On the exhale there’s a nice of bit vanilla peeking through. Tastes like a less dry, and overall tastier version of INW biscuit.

Off-flavors: Nada, Zip, Zilch

Throat hit: Smooth, very smooth.

Notes: Works as a shake and vape, but I like it more after 2-3 days. Everything evens out and its just delicious. It’s kind of what I had hoped INW biscuit would be back when I first began mixing. I was put off by it though and avoided recipes that called for biscuit. INW biscuit is too dry for me and strange tasting especially after chain vaping. I am very thankful that JF answered my prayers on this one.
 
After many tweaks, I am happy to share me Hertzoggie recipe. The various version on the forum never quite did it for me so I tackled each element and The Apricot Jam was tricky to nail, but I am happy with where it is now. Notes, etc here

EDIT - No local vendors stock INW Apricot any longer. Feel free to sub with CLY at the same %

Hertzoggies
INW Apricot 1.5%
FA Armenia (Apricot) 1.5%
FA Coconut 2%
FA Cookie 1%
FA Marshmallow 0.5%
FA Meringue 1.5%
Cap Sugar Cookie V1 3%

Steep 7 days minimum

Great stuff! On my list, but I miss INW Apricot. Where did you get hold of it?
 
TFA Apricot should work. ID10-T's notes on it from Reddit:

TFA on the other hand, is quite assertive, though it also works as an enhancer to other fruits at a very low %. It tastes unmistakably like apricot and is sweet but also has a nice tartness to it. I think it also has kind of a sticky, jammy feel, like apricot jam.

Incidentally, Inw Apricot is on the list of reformulated Inw flavours. So even if vendors get it in now, it probably won't give the same result in Rudi's recipe. That's not to say that the new flavour won't work but just sayin'.

Presume Sugar Cookie V1? Please edit your post for the record. Have you tried it with TFA Apricot?
 
Updated.
I have not tried it with TFA Apricot. Will get some in and give it a go...
Printed and joined my to-be-mixed file. Going to use TFA Apricot (thanks @RichJB). If I may be so bold, shall add 0.5% TFA Sour to accommodate my taste and maybe add a bit of contrast/tartness. Shall report in due course.

Thanks to everyone for the support on the humble recipe I posted yesterday...
I have had an overwhelming response to the Hertzoggies recipe on ATF, it trended very soon and is currently on the "POPULAR RECIPES 24H" thread. Please spread the word in order for more local mixers to shine on the world stage. This make 2 weeks of South African recipes trending on ATF, following a stunning Pear and Caramel recipe by another SA mixer.

I saw that! Well done! I'm gonna have to try that!
