Nonna's Cake can do all kinds of great things with dessert vapes. The little bit in this recipe makes it extra rich and sweet-vanilla-y. If you like Disney resorts' Dole Whip or other creamy pineapple desserts, try this when you get Nonna's Cake.

2% FA Custard
2% FA Pineapple
1% FA Fresh Cream
1% FA Marshmallow
1% FA Nonna's Cake
0.5% FA Banana *
0.5% FA Coconut *

* Coconut is here more for its creaminess than its flavor; Banana is more for the sweetness than the flavor. The combination adds a subtle but appealing contrast to Pineapple. This is where you can experiment and suit yourself. You can sub Vienna Cream for either/both. Or maybe you'd prefer FA Orange for something like a creamy Julius. Or maybe papaya + orange instead of banana + coconut. Etc. It's all good, so have fun with it.

Some people prefer the flavor of TFA Pineapple over FA Pineapple. I prefer FA so that's what I use. If you prefer TFA, use it. In my opinion, FA tastes more like fresh pineapple (including the tart notes), while TFA tastes more like canned pineapple (mostly sweet and perhaps a tad stronger). Note that TFA Pineapple can wreck some types of plastic.

Thanks for the share HIC I am not a big fan of pineapple how do you think this would be with strawberry instead and would I use the same percentage? Vaping your Vanilla Nut Coffee right now and it is GREAT!! Thanks again.:)

Pineapple is WAAAAYY stronger than strawberry. Nonna Cake is tasty when "topped" with all kinds of fruits, so you might just begin with 2-3% Nonna Cake and plenty of Strawberry, without all the other creamy stuff to interfere. Actually, just start with 3% Nonna Cake standalone - vape that for a while and you'll get lots of ideas what YOU would like with it.

I described Nonna Cake some over here: http://vapingunderground.com/threads/new-fa-flavor.194123/page-2#post-943347 - it's a good one!

Interesting, it actually sounds roughly what I'm looking for.. It came up in a discussion where I was looking to swap out Cinnamon Roll (FW) for something by FA. I'm thinking, along with some input from others Cinnamon Ceylon with either Cookie, the Nornna's Cake, a tiny bit of Apple Pie (or a combo of) and some Joy.. I'm slowly playing around trying to convert some of my older recipes to all FA versions for fun/a challenge/variety.

I need to experiment more. I've written this recipe down to try later anyway, thanks.

I'll agree to a hibrination. Ecx sent me an email saying they missed me. One way to get me back is to have this flavor in stock. And as well as (spelling error coming!) shishi strawberry inwera.

I know it hasn't arrived in the US yet, but FA's new Nonna Cake flavor is already available from FA's UK site. Hopefully the wait won't be too long for other vendors!

From HIC's description of this flavor I hope @Roundhouse has ordered a 55 gallon drum of this. Otherwise it will be OOS in like 2 minutes of it going in stock...

Agreed, after reading HIC's description and this thread I also had flashbacks to Joy and called and begged Richard (at FA) to ignore our pre-order and just send as much as they can! :).

To deliver your FA Nonna Cake order, it sounds like I should be taking a hard look at future market oil prices! Hmmm... putting on a justifiable hedge to limit my price risk exposure at the diesel fuel pump does seems warranted. ;)

Is it possible to do this one without the custard? I hate custard vapes :( but the rest sounds amazing. Wonder if I'd have to bump up another flavor to make that work...

FA Custard is adding sweet-lemony flavor to alter pineapple a little bit and creamy vanilla that offsets the cheesecake vibe in Nonna Cake. You really can't skip it, or it'll taste nothing like the description I wrote just above the recipe. In fact, since Nonna Cake IS custardy, this recipe would actually taste more custardy without the Custard. I know that sounds weird, but it's true!
