I'm vaping HIC's Cornbread recipe which I mixed 2.5 weeks ago. Wow, FA Corn tastes just like real corn. I'd easily put it at one of the most accurate flavors I've tried. Unfortunately, the taste is overpowering at 3% and I'm not getting a taste of bread. It's like eating straight from a can of corn niblets. I'm going to increase the two flavors that make up the bread and see if it helps.


I doubled up the bread ingredients of this and it didn't make a difference, the corn just overwhelms. It's not a pleasant taste. Even if I were to drop the %, it'll still retain that flavor. It's going into the pif box.

I can't taste the spices in my mix. I even put the TFA pumpkin spice up to 1% and TFA bakery up. It might be due to stroke damage I think. Lost some types of smell or taste.

I definitely do not have this issue. I did a mix with both cap and TFA spice @ .10 % each and in a new mix are un-vapeable. They literally are the only things I can taste.

@Teresa P , @VAPEROXX did mention in his post that he mixes strong cos of his broken tasters, right vaperroxx? Like I mentioned upbove, I had to half the %’s for my second round of his Cornbread Puddin cos I was low on FLV Vanilla Pudding & it tastes fantastic halved as well.
That's correct!

You know, after making my request, I had a rare lightning flash of inspiration and checked over at ELR where lo and behold, I found the recipe! :) It took some digging but I got it. I'm making a bcf order right now so it may be next month before I can get the solub arome breakfast but I really, REALLY want to try this on. I've been eyeing that rf jam with toast for a good while. :)

Saturday I mixed up 30ml of Deep Fried Oreos. I had changed the recipe to use Cap Sugar Cookie instead of FA Cookie, and then changed my mind right before mixing. I should have trusted my first instinct. There is something about that FA Cookie that I just can't deal with. Am going to give it some steeping time and see if the whatever-taste-it-is will mellow out.

I'm seriously thinking about throwing FA Cookie in the trash so I'm not tempted to use it in anything else.

ETA: Wonder if I could cover it up with a percent or two of Cap Glazed Donut?

Thanks, I don't have it yet. I am going the yellow cake route, and I will add vta bakery spice.
I heard that hic has a recipe in his store, I don't have some of the flavors he mentions, and I am not getting another flavor order at least for a few weeks lol. He might have a pumpkin latte recipe on here, I will search. I have a few from his store, and I believe that his lemon meringue pie is the best recipe that I have made. I just love it.

I agree HIC's Lemon Meringue Pie is fabulous. It was one of the first ten recipes I ever made and even though it wasn't my recipe, I was SO impressed with myself that I'd made something so deliciously accurate!

Have you tried JF cookie? I’ve heard that’s a good sub. Not sure about the caps glazed donut. Maybe? Or maybe FW Yellow Cake?

I'm sorry. HIC is a good dude and is considered the diy god, but I mixed up the lemon meringue pie exactly as written and it was disgusting to me. I couldn't even finish vaping the 9 ml tester I made. Even after steeping for 2 weeks, all I could taste was egg white. I dumped the remaining 5 or 6 ml and put the bottle of meringue in the back of the cabinet.

Anyone have any thoughts on starting % with Capella Lemon meringue pie V2. I lost my notes on this one. I'm thinking 7%. I did a quick google search and seen % as high as 20%. Yikes!
I’ve used it around 4-5% in a mix. 20%??? Damn! Even for Capella, that’s way too high!

To each his/her own! I haven’t tried his LMP yet. As with every mixer, including me, there are hits or misses. HIC has definitely has hits for me.....and some misses. Personal taste. I personally love meringue, to eat and vape. There are plenty of other things to use out there!

I envy folks who have properly working taste buds and can enjoy a wide variety of flavors and juices in their daily vape. Being limited to a few select flavors really sucks. I find a recipe that sounds good and a ton of people rave about it, I buy the flavors to make it and likely as not it's gonna be nasty to me! Case in point, I so wanted to love Mykreign's deep fried oreos, bought the stuff to make it, and all I taste is yeast. I let it sit for about 10 days and tried it...same thing.

It really sucks being me sometimes.

I haven't tried eating anything with meringue since I had my stroke. I don't know if it would affect me the same way or not. I'm more of a cool whip fan than meringue anyway. I actually prefer cool whip over real cream if you can believe that.

Cool Whip is awesome! No judgement here!

There’s Joy in his recipe, if I remember. Joy definitely has that effect on some people. Beer/yeast. I’m lucky in the flavoring department.....knocks on wood!

I'm telling ya, it's that damn FA Cookie!

ETA: Actually might be the combo of FA Cookie, Joy, and Zeppola.

  • Juicy J's Sizzurp (by Philosaphucker)
  • Milk & Honey (by CheebaSteeba)
  • Boss Reserve Clone (by folkart)

I am the same as you since my first stroke. I have had three now, but I am in the clear because the blood clot cluster has gone. I have found my taste and smell has been affected. Eyesight and emotional part of the brain got affected. I could not feel emotions for two years. Apparently I have taught a different part of my brain to take over. I went to the doctor for three years with symptoms and he thought I was a bored housewife. It all started when I crashed my bike, and from the injuries blood clots went undetected, I had a pulmonary embolism and I have been in heart failure. I am happy to be alive, even though I am very upset and angry at the doctors. Omg sorry for the rant. I am ok and it has made me stronger person.

I just checked on ELR....there are quite a few cornbread recipes over there. I would go with tuney, Ckemist, Trey M, or Jennifer Jarvis recipes. They’re pretty good mixers, IMO. Got me thinking about mixing a cornbread recipe!

And I went the opposite way. I'm plagued with mood swings, and sometimes get as emotional as a 16 year old girl getting dumped right before prom! (Ithe wife and I barely survived that one) :)

A lot of things I used to like, I can't tolerate anymore.

I have emotions now, but I didn't for a few years. The hard part for me to deal with is I didn't stand up to the doctor. I couldn't feel anger. Then when I got it back, everything was exaggerated emotions. I flew into rages for a while. I wouldn't wish it on anyone, but we are alive and that makes us tuff survivors.
