Well, you can only get the chef's choice at chef's and the fantasy isn't sold here in the US either I don't think. I prefer Bull City, that is where 90% of my stuff has come from, but if I can't get it there I will go to Chef's.

I meant somebody else! But I was thinking BCF. :teehee: They have the fastest shipping ever. I placed an order and it was shipped a couple hours later. :wow:

But I looked at Chef’s and they have the MOST flavors, especially one shots, that I’ve seen anywhere. One shots have been my friend now.

If you are planning on buying a fair amount of one shots, Chef's is definitely the place to go. The shipping is pretty reasonable as well. I think it works out to like $5-6. If you pick up a few things, they have sales very frequently. Join their Facebook page to find out about them. There is also a discount code there that you can use any time.

That sounds really good. Is the Fantasy a one shot? Have you tried your mix yet?

The Fantasy Salted Caramel is a flavoring & Chef’s is the only place I know if that sells it. Didn’t get a chance to try it yet but I asked Nick re: steep time & he said it’s good right away. I’ll try it tomorrow & report back. I also didn’t add the Cap Supersweet to it. Figured I’ll try it 1st but in Nick’s note if you want it to taste like those doughnuts available from the UK you need it.

That shipping price is great! Places here charge that much or more.
Thanks, I’ll buy some one shots! Although I’m only familiar with a few of the brands they have, so maybe I’ll get some of their brand.

Did you mix anything special for the holiday, btw?

Thanks. The reason I asked it it was a one-shot is they recommend using it at 10-15% which to me sounded like a one-shot vs. a flavoring.Think I'll order some along with the Chef's Choice Salted Caramel, but may mix it with FW depending on how you like yours.

Nick stated in his notes that the Fantasy Salted Caramel is bang on, salty, sweet Caramel. But it’s a coil killer. I used the FW Salted Caramel cuz it’s what I had on hand & since I had everything else I figured why not. Finger taste of the FW Salted Caramel, I do taste the salt, sweet Caramel too, it’s also a coil killer.

I do want to get the Fantasy Salted Caramel too, when I order from Chefs.

So do you have the Chef's Choice salted caramel or did you just use FW sub'd for both? I'd be interested in how you sub'd.

Is the discount code for Chef's something you (or anyone) can share? I don't use Facebook.

Yes I do have the Chef’s Choice Salted Caramel. The only sub was FW Salted Caramel for the Fantasy & I omitted the CAP Supersweet for now.

I’m just about to load my Armageddon Squonk with Haku Venna with it. I’ll let you know how I find it in a little while :)

I did not mix anything special for the holiday and I still need to mix your cheesecake and send it out. Sorry. Just very busy.

I appreciate the intention, so no pressure! :hug: I just wondered if you made anything egg noggy or pumpkin spice or candy cane for the season.

@marter I’ve been vaping the whole day, Nick’s Greggs Caramel Custard Doughnut & I’m really enjoying it! For me it’s fine without the addition of the Supersweet as I’ve never tasted the real thing. Nicks suggestion is if you want the true effect of the doughnuts to use the Supersweet as the real doughnuts are really sweet.

Thanks for the update. Looking forward to mixing it, but lacking both the salted caramels he used as well as a couple other flavors, I'm ordering from Chef's and BCF (as soon as the Black Friday codes are available) to make it as he's designed it. Thanks again. And happy Thanksgiving.

just BTW, FW Salted Caramel is awesome in coffee. I do two drops + a drop of tfa raspberry sweet on the rare occasion im in the mood for a flavored coffee. It may seem like an unlikely flavor combo, but I find it delicious.

Not sure if I mentioned it, but in MA, we can't even order flavors now. The last time I made a flavor order was October 30th--after the ban, I thought. But now everyone is saying no. I do have plenty of flavors so I'm not too worried at the time being, but it's a little demoralizing nonetheless. The idea that food flavors can be banned because they *might* have something to do with vaping. Blegh.

My order is placed!
:bliss::bliss::bliss::bliss::bliss:

looking forward to trying @Smoky Blue Alpine Strawberry Napoleons! Hoping I love it as much as you @gopher_byrd

@Rihanne all your talk of LB White Chocolate Peppermint got to me :D & I ordered to try.

and a few other flavors for restock.

a big thank you to @Roundhouse for the Holiday coupon! And @wllmc for being an awesome friend :inlove::inlove::inlove:

The WCP is pretty great, but it seems like the LB Peppermint is upsetting my tummy. After mixing a 50ml and vaping it for a few days, my stomach wasn’t happy at all! But it tastes delicious. I’ll have to try a different mint. Maybe ECX Minty Menthol. Or whatever the brand is.

Edit: I mixed a double Peppermint WCP. Yummy. But =blech tum for me.

It can be very hit or miss when trying to do subs, but sometimes you'll be amazed at yourself. It the profile seems like something you'd love, I say go for it. The worst you can do is miss, and even then, if you've been thoughtful, the miss isn't so bad. You might discover something wonderful.

The little message on ELR “You are missing ingredients” is a bummer!! :giggle: But happy accidents do occur, thankfully.

They banned food flavoring?? I’m shocked. This is an attack on our lifestyle, as well as the vaping industry.

Are you sure? It seems outrageous. For instance-Capella flavorings have a website. It is not catered to vaper-ers. How are they going to monitor it? I feel bad for you all in MA. :(

Maybe he can order straight from them, but it seems OTT to ban flavors outright. Really interesting times now, to quote the Chinese.

That sounds yummy. I’ve put PUR Raspberry in coffee and it’s really nice too. (It’s not in any recipes, so it’s good for coffee! lol)
