DIY Dessert & Candy Recipes

I go catch up on the "Elephant in the room" thread and just chuckle to myself while we all here just sharing recipes and vaping good juice.

I couldn't be bothered about whether it's someone else's recipe or my own. If it's good I'll mix it an vape it, kla

Plum Brûlée by yours truly

View attachment 86114

A pretty thick custard. Smoked plum goes very well with it. Finished with the caramised sugar (brûlée)
Simple yet quite a layered or complex tasting custard.

I quite like it.

INW Creme Brûlée 2.5%
INW Custard 2%
INW Smoked Plum 0.5%

Good after a week, but more is best.

Thanks @Mike for suggesting INW Custard - finally a custard I like.

Opened my bottle this morning @rogue zombie. Five stars. Just as I like my desserts -bright and not too sweet. And the Plum is divine in there. Thank you for the recipe.

Inspired by this recipe, I subbed the Cap VC with INW Custard and it is a winner!

Notes via the recipe as the creator describes it beautifully! In essence:
"This is a bare bones attempt at creating a decadent creme brulee spritzed with fresh squeezed orange and garnished with orange slices. Your palate will crave the actual dessert when you get notes of rich custard, burnt sugar/caramel, and a spritz of orange."

Creme de Orange
FW blood organge 2%
INW Creme brulee 3%
INW Custard 3%

The custard base here is good to go in just a couple of days and delivers an outstanding, sophisticated vape with just 3 ingredients. Absolutely amazing...

Sounds really good. I must add this to my list.
Thanks

The stuff in the tin can, either bought or boiled yourself, has nothing on the real thing from Argentina. It is everywhere, used for all meals and in between and with hundreds of products - from chocolate to ice cream to croissants. Argentina is the main producer of dulce de leche and also has the highest consumption per person in the world. I found the Argentine product to be light and just sweet enough to consume vast amounts. Smooth, sticky, almost liquid with a light brown colour.

I have tried a few dulce de leche commercial juices and a few concentrates. None came close for me. Until I found this recipe by the renowned mixer CheebaSteeba. He calls it Milk and Honey, but for me it tastes exactly like Argentine dulce de leche. And just sweet enough to vape it all day, every day. If you want sweeter, add 1.0 % of FA Meringue.

Steep: 7 days

As promised @RichJB.

Dulce de leche, the Argentine way
TFA Graham Cracker Clear 2.0 %
FLV Milk & Honey 1.5 %
TFA Toasted Marshmallow 1.5 %
FLV Cream 1.0 %

Total flavour: 6.0 %

Thanks @Andre. I finished mine in record time, the one I made from milk and sugar, I mean. Will be making another batch today, I'll simmer it for shorter so that it's more runny than the previous batch. I have Cheebasteeba's recipe steeping, although I had to use Cream Fresh in place of Flv. Vurve absolutely raves about Flv Cream but I've also heard that it imparts a funky metallic taste. And then Cheebasteeba himself reckons Flv Sweet Cream is a better "neutral" cream than Flv Cream. So now I'm confuzzed about which one to get. I wonder if adding some JF Dulce de Leche to this would work in place of the Meringue?

The stats are with FLV Cream at this stage. Have not tried JF Dulce de Leche, but my feeling is it would be better to add FA Meringue to get the sweet, which FA Cream Fresh does not have. Adding a dulce de leche on top might be too much imo.

@Allenh1 we need to try this one!

Can't wait for my Mag stirrer to arrive then I can cut down the steeping to a few hours.

Hi @Greyz what has your experience been with the mag stirrer reducing steep time?

Hi Method

Looking for this Recipe but it looks like it's missing

Thanks

The Mag Stirrer really does reduce the steep time, from messing around I found 4 equals about 5 to 7 days steeping.
My issue with the Mag Stirrer is that all the juice I stirred all had notable flavour loss. I feel I wasted my time and money on it and get better, more consistent results just shaking and leaving in a dark cupboard.

I offer u the services of my mag stirrer (and heat pad too if u want) if ur willing to pay the shipping. Your welcome to to use it as long as you wish. Maybe, and I'm truly hoping, you will get it right and can share with the rest of us.

Thanks, that is a very generous offer. I will definitely take you up on it and do some testing.
Interesting about the flavour loss. Will have to do some experiments.

Following an unrelated search for a possible use for INW Sesame, I saw a reference to a cake which paired Sesame and Plum (among other bits). This intrigued me so I added 0.1% INW Sesame to your original recipe... WOW - what a winner!!!! The sesame is hardly noticeable (which is the idea) and compliments the earthy elements of this recipe beautifully!!

I have tried a couple of Rhubarb recipes and even a few of my own concoctions. None came even close. Not being a big Custard fan, I glossed over dazcole's Roobarb & Custard recipe a few time. At my wits end with Rhubarb, decided to give it a go. Very glad I did.

The contrasting sweet and bitter is amazing. This one cannot go without the sweetener. Orange zest in the background and the Ginger a faint interest on the exhale. This is traditional Rhubarb and Custard, you can really taste the Rhubarb.

If you were looking for something different, this is it! I cannot get enough of it.

Next I am going to try adding some Rhubarb to @rogue zombie's stunning Brulee base as used in Plum Brulee.

RHUBARB and CUSTARD
CAP Vanilla Custard V1 4.5 %
TFA French Vanilla Creme 1.5 %
FA Fresh Cream 1.0 %
CAP Gingerbread 1.0 %
TFA Sweetener 1.0 %
FA Marshmallow 0.5 %
INW Rhubarb 0.5 %
FA Mandarin 0.5 %
FA Bergamot 0.25 %

Total flavour: 10.75 %

Enjoying the Rhubarb and Custard recipe directly above, I decided to try some Rhubarb with @rogue zombie's awesome creme brulee base in Plum Brulee.

Tasted it after a 2 week steep. Awesome. The bitter/tart of the Rhubarb is less than in the Rhubarb and Custard above, but you still cannot miss it. For me the balance between the sweet and the bitter is better in this one. INW Rhubarb is a very strong concentrate. I like it at 0.5 % here, but some might prefer it lower.

Rhubarb Brûlée
INW Creme Brulee 2.5 %
INW Custard 2.0 %
INW Rhubarb 0.5 %

Total flavour: 5.0 %

@Andre, skiddlz has cited Inw Rhubarb as the single most realistic/accurate/authentic flavour he has ever vaped. Has your experience been of super-authenticity? I'm intrigued to try this flavour. It's been decades since I ate rhubarb. However, it was a staple dessert when I was a kid as we had a rhubarb patch in the garden. So if it's as authentic as skiddlz reckons, it will be a case of a juice quite literally "taking me back to my childhood".

It is a very accurate fresh Rhubarb. And yes, with the sweet it might just take you back a couple of decades!

Hi man. This is probably a stupid question but are the above concentrations in ml right, based on 100ml? Im struggling to work out the percentage of each flavour. Help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks bro.

@Tsharks , this looks like percentages

@Tsharks, all recipes are given in percentages. It is the only way to make recipes scaleable so that mixers can make any quantity they choose.

Okay great thanks budduly appreciate the feedback. I just presumed it could be in ml since the percentages are so low. But will mix and give it a try! Thanks again.

Everyone is right, they are percentages but that also works perfectly as ml in a 100ml bottle.
