FA Custard: 2-5% standalone, but usually used in lower percents as an ingredient
If you are looking for an American vanilla pudding flavor, you should also read about FA's
Vienna Cream, Catalan Cream, and all three
FA Vanilla flavors.
FA Custard is a true basic custard flavor, not goopy vanilla pudding. Custard is made by cooking egg yolks, sugar, milk/cream, a little vanilla, and often a little lemon zest, into a thickened cream. FlavourArt is an Italian company, so they've included the light vanilla and lemon zest flavor as an Italian chef likely would. This is a bright, sweet, lightly creamy flavor.
So what to do with it? Some people enjoy it plain, anywhere from 2-5%, for the authentic flavor of real homemade custard (which does not taste like Jello instant vanilla pudding). Italians include custard in lots of desserts, so I take my ideas from real recipes. Here are my main uses:
Pour Custard over your favorite fruits. If you enjoy vaping fresh fruit flavors, you need this flavor. It works perfectly with all of FA's fruit flavors to add sweet, creamy, bright flavor. Try your favorite fruit(s) with a hint of (1%) Custard for the simplest Italian dessert.
Gelato is Italian, egg-based ice cream that begins with a cooked custard. Simply adding FA Custard to your favorite FA fresh fruit flavors will give you authentic Italian gelato flavor. 4% Grapefruit with 1% Custard makes grapefruit gelato, for example; 1% Bilberry with 2-3% Custard is bilberry gelato. The stronger the fruit flavor is, the higher the ratio of Custard to fruit. I haven't found an FA fruit flavor that doesn't taste GREAT as gelato.
Custard is not just for Italian desserts. If a (real food) recipe begins with egg yolks, milk/cream, and sugar stirred together over heat, then the vape equivalent needs FA Custard flavor. You'll find it's the beginning of many cooked candies, ice cream, cakes, pies/tarts, and numerous other (real) European and American dessert recipes.
A little FA Custard adds bright sweetness that also complements deeper, bolder flavors - like chocolate, butterscotch, caramel, maple, tobaccos (!), rum, and nuts. Whether you're working on chocolate-rum mousse, butterscotch pudding, or even a smoother/brighter tobacco - any time you need bright-sweet-creaminess - FA Custard is one to try.
