Wicks bubblegum recipe or tips?
- Thread starter s kajee

You should start with messing around with TFA root beer and TFA spearmint ... together in theory they should make wicks.
Bubblegum is particularly tricky! It's hard to find a "bubblegum" concentrate that's actually vapable. I have been tinkering quite a bit, tried all the bubblegum's I could find and have only found 1 that is worth using in a recipe, its Flavor West - Juicy Gum or Stick Gum. It's got a very wicks like flavour, hope that helps 
Creative flavors has a bubblegum flavor that tastes just like wicks. They use to offer 10 free 50ml samples of there concentrates, worth a try i guess.

Or you could just get 'Cool Ice Wicks' from Vapeowave
Never had Wicks Bubblegum before, but I know Clyrolinx sells a bubblegum flavour which I have used and is quite nice so maybe try that in a recipe.
Try bubblegum from clyrolinx, tastes just like wicks
HIC's Pink Bubblegum recipe is what you want. As stated earlier.
I've tried to make a Wicks Flavoured bubblegum vape for some time now and worked out a recipe.
The recipe I worked out that I was very satisfied with is:
Cly Bubblegum 2-3%
TFA Bubblegum 6%
INW Strawberry (Shisha) 5%
TFA Sweetener 1%
My thoughts on this was:
Cly Bubblegum - Gives you that Wicks type bubblegum flavour. It also has gives you a nice mouth feel. I have it at 2-3% depending on how strong you want that wicks flavour to come through. Dont go higher than 3%.
TFA Bubblegum - I have a lot of experience with this flavour and together with the Cly Bubblegum it amplified the bubblegum experience. I left it at 6% but recommend not going higher because it will be a bit of bubblegum overkill.
INW Strawberry (Shisha) - This is a cross between TFA Strawberry (Ripe) and TFA Strawberry. It is my go-to strawberry. In the recipe it adds more to the candy profile and used it in previous bubblegum recipes where it worked well to bring that extra something the recipe called for.
TFA Sweetener - Actually used this to gel all the flavours together a bit and not to necessarily sweeten it. Sweetener at 1% works well to amplify the Cly and TFA Bubblegum.
In the end It can be a shake and vape but I recommend steeping it for 2 days to soften that wicks element in the mix.
I'm pretty satisfied with the recipe but feel free to comment if you can add to the recipe.

Made this one last night - smells devine!!!!
It's good - a bit 'too' bubblegum for me but pleasant. I only drip and it's a nice switch but can see this as an adv as the bubblegum is very potent and gets monotonous... A good recipe though!

Awesome thanx @Rude Rudi. I want to whip up a batch next weekend.

OK, I based my comments on the mix which I last tasted 2 weeks ago so I grabbed it this morning and have been vaping for the last hour or so.
I made this batch on 31/1 and it is now just on 4 weeks old and I must admit that it is a dam fine bubblegum vape!!! The strong wicks bubblegum flavour has no mellowed a bit and not so overpowering anymore. The strawberry is still as crisp and sweet as the day it was mixed and compliments this recipe beautifully.
@Constantbester
Mixed this up last night. Smells really strawberry-ish, but should still be a very lekker juice. I'll leave it to steep a couple of days and then give it a try.
Feedback on this recipe : It is awesome. It smells like it's going to kill you with sweetness and then once you start vaping it, it is actually very subtle. Vaped a tank today and I am very pleased with the outcome. I had it steeping for 4 days and could not wait any longer. I've left the rest to keep steeping so I'll check in again in a couple of days.

Ok, so this Strawberry bubblegum juice just gets better and better! I added it to my rotation for today and my word, it is stunning!!! This is now 6 weeks old and it is an absolute banger!!
The strawberry is as fresh as the day it was mixed and the bubblegum has now melded into a top notch vape!!!

This! If you want Wicks Bubblegum flavor! Why go through a recipe if you can just get the bubblegum flavor from Clyrolinx (Wick Flavor), 3-3.5% -> Shake and Vape!
The recipe is to take the bubblegum base form CLY and improve it as part of a bubblegum juice...that's the whole point. A single flavour is great but when used in a recipe makes it brilliant. It is like CAP Custard - great on it's own but 90% of it's use is in a recipe...
Makes sense. I'm a one-flavor-type-a-guy(diy'er). So if someone was looking for the 'Wicks quick fix' clyrolinx's bubblegum flavor is the bomb.
