Coconut Cake Doughnuts

Squonk · Sep 13, 2015

This is a cake doughnut. I really like FA Joy in this to bring some yeastiness to it.
Coconut(FA) 2.5%
Vanilla Cupcake(CAP) 6%(TFA will most likely work)
Cookie(FA) 1.5%
Joy(FA) 1%
Marshmallow(FA) .5%
2mg-30pg/70vg
I especially enjoy the aftertaste. I hope you enjoy it has much as I do.

I let it sit for 2 days or longer especially with FA Coconut. I very rarely shake and vape. I mix all my test batches at 12mls, this way I can try it at 3 different steep stages. I feel all flavors should have a chance to get to know each other. If you want to shake and vape, go ahead, but try it again a few days later and let me know what you think.

Ohhhhhhh that sounds yummy!!!!!!!

This recipe does not deserve to be on page 7 of the recipes. I made this last weekend, let it sit a bit. I only had TFA for the cupcake flavor and I left out Joy, because Joy and I don't like each other. Squonk, this is delicious! I'm on tank # 2 of this today. Thanks for the share

whitecloud40 · Oct 23, 2015

That sounds so good. Esp with marshmallow added, would be the icing on the cake lol. Will have to try this thanks for sharing!

Your so sweet. Thank you. Actually I almost forgot about this recipe so it looks like I'm gonna have to mix 30mls this weekend.

+1 on the 12 ml. In addition, in a 0.5 oz bottle it leaves you ca. 3 ml to add more flavors if needed.

Oh, thanks for sharing! I might try some myself. I got plenty of Joy (both

).

Thank you. It's nice to hear I created something others can enjoy. Not to brag, but I think it's up there with the best juices I've tasted.

Squonk, I had to mix up 2 of these tonight!! One for me, and one for a friend of mine. It's pretty addicting, man. thankyouthankyou.

This looks really good, I love cake doughnuts! I don't have any FA Cookie, think a sugar cookie would make a passable substitution? And if so....% suggestion?

I never tried sugar cookie. If sugar cookie is real sweet, maybe drop or use .25% marshmallow.

Huckleberried · Nov 14, 2015

Speaking of Marshmallow. The 2nd time I mixed this up, I did bump that a tad. This is just some really good stuff, dude.

I'll give that a try. What effect did it have?
I was reading the FA Joy Haters Club thread but I think Joy plays a nice role in this recipe by giving the coconut a toasted feel and yeastiness to the doughnut.
I was able to obtain a secret video of one of their meetings in action from one of my insider men.

Oh man, I loved that show when I was growing up. Haven't seen those on in ages.

I only bumped it up for a touch more sweetness and to kind of moisten it up a bit. I sometimes get a bad dryness with coconut vapes. It didn't change the profile in the least. It's just as yummy as it was before.

I know what your saying regarding the dryness of coconut. I'm gonna mix one up using your adjustment. That reminds me, I have a toasted coconut marshmallow that I came up with a while ago that's pretty good. I'll have to look at my notes, but if I remember correctly it was nice and moist and almost felt like little coconut shreds left behind in your mouth.
Here it is:
Marshmallow(CAP) 8%
Meringue(FA) 1%
Coconut(FA) 1.5%
Cookie(FA) 1%
My notes are showing a 1 week steep.
I haven't tried making this with FA Marshmallow because I made this before I had FA. Maybe 2-3% FA Marshmallow and .5-.75% Meringue?

Huckleberried · Nov 14, 2015

I don't know, really. Try FA Marsh at 1-1.5 first and see. I no longer have Caps Marsh, I put together a PIF for a new mixer and sent that one since I had 3 different ones, LOL. 4 if you count Toasted Marsh.

I like that recipe posted. I'll definitely give that a go!! Bookmarked.

Huckleberried · Nov 14, 2015

Oh. And I find FA Meringue really sweet, so, for me, yeah I'd probably do 0.5

FA Meringue is a funny thing. I used it to toast up the coconut.

Squonk · Nov 14, 2015

I always run into the problem when I decide to try the same flavors in other brands and have to completely reformulate a recipe.

You know, a lot of people have been tasting Meringue differently for the last several months. That makes sense, depending on when you bought your bottle. @HeadInClouds contacted FA to see if it was reformulated, I think. Seems they said no, but a lot of people's taste buds don't agree. I'm still on one of the bottles that isn't like that, so I can't say fairly, but your thoughts make complete sense.

I generally won't use more than .5% because of the weird flavor it can give above that. It may be due to the fact that when mixing a FA only recipe the lower % works better, but when complementing a CAPs or TFA recipe a little higher meringue % can be tolerated. Can you dig the vibes I'm verbitrating?

LOL, groovy man. And that does make sense.

I have never used sugar cookie either, bought it to own it I guess! Seems I have a lot of those kind of flavors... and beads... and fabric...!! I would imagine by the name it will be much sweeter than FA's, In general I don't find FA flavors to be overly sweet. So I will definitely drop the marshmallow. Thanks!

bkind · Nov 27, 2015

What would you think of subbing the coconut for bilberry? Would it take away any sweetness? I'm thinking 0.5% bilberry. I'm thinking blueberry doughnuts. If it would take away some of the sweetness what could you add to bring it back? Thanks for the tasty recipe and looking forward to your thoughts on my subs!

I'm thinking lower coconut to .5-1%(gives buttery note) and lower joy to .5%. Stick with bilberry @ .5%. Let me know how it goes.

Cool thanks man! Will let you know in a couple of days after a little steeping. This is one that definitely gets better with age!

Do you have a name for this Squonk? I named it Coconut Cookie.
I just came across this recipe thread. The Coconut Cake Doughnut sounds really nice, and the one I called coconut cookie looks great too. Thanks for sharing. This guy right here really appreciates your talent for mixing.

Hey MercuryVaper. Here's where I posted the recipe. It's a sweet one and thanks for the complement. http://www.vapingunderground.com/threads/toasted-coconut-marsmallow.166957/#post-809595 Lately I've been mixing less sweeter recipes, but my preferences keep flip flopping.
