OK, so I was a fan of Country Clouds' Cornbread Puddin' ever since it came out. I have made countless versions of "clones" (well at least 7 or 8!) that people have published, all using some form of popcorn, kettle corn, cereal etc & was never really satisfied. Last November I started trying to make more of a cornbread "custard" (using CAP VC) rather than a pudding after disappointing results using FLV's Vanilla Pudding in this & a couple of other recipes. I also switched up the "corn" flavor & just went with FA Corn, which is dead-nuts accurate to home-grown sweet corn IMO. Using these two flavorings, I started again. I stopped here at version 6 because I have what I really wanted all along- a true cornbread custard. I realize like FA Butter, the Corn can be difficult to get (I go straight through FA for both Corn & Butter) & also that it is one of their flavors (like the Butter) that contains Diacetyl & other "baddies", but I could not get it right without this great flavor. This is one of my favorites now for the last month & a half & I believe will become a staple in my rotation, as well as a few friends' too, as they are taking to it like I did! I will also warn that you have to be patient, as it didn't get real good to me until about 3 weeks & at 4 weeks is heavenly.

1.5% INW Biscuit
1.5% FA Corn
1% FA Joy
5% CAP Vanilla Custard
2% FW Yellow Cake

Never tried the Country Clouds, but does it give off any dry flavor sensation with the biscuit?
Been looking at picking up a bottle of Country Clouds to try, but might just pick up the stuff for your recipe.

I wouldn't describe this recipe OR Country Clouds as dry. This is also not a "clone" of it either, though. This is more of a combination of cornbread & custard where CC is pretty much a combination of cornbread & pudding. The FA Corn is very moist & is almost a creamed corn taste. Although the two juices taste different, I like both of them.

What would you suggest for an FA Corn alternative? Currently, FA Corn seems to be available only from the manufacturer.

Sadly there is no good sub for FA Corn. I have tried many with no good results.
I get it straight from FA Italy.
