(TPA) Strawberry

This is a tasty bright sweet jammy strawberry forward inhale that moves into a light tart lemon on the exhale ending with a vanilla bakery note. can be a shake and vape but is best 3 - 5 days
This was made for daytime franks MIXIN IN THE KITCHEN TPA episode https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpzG9vsIgaCUzHVrUMHiV_g

dragon fruit just helps to get the strawberry to pop out and helps to blend the lemon and strawberry notes . Also dragon fruit is a great enhancer for strawberry .

Despite all the strawberries out there the combination of TPA strawberry and Strawberry ripe are just hard to beat and if you have those 2 - you can create just about any strawberry you want

Lemonade cookie is a great flavor but will fade so it needs some support - sadly I did not really have any other good TPA lemon flavors for this mix and this just screamed for a bit more lemon and INW lemon cake was just tooo good to leave out. it. INW does lemons really well and this adds those notes and support the bakery with a yellow almost pound cake base

Vanilla swirl is added for some body ad vanilla notes

sweet cereal supports the bakery notes and adds some additional sweetness and texture with a sweetned corn flake note

NOTES: This is pretty sweet mix but if you want it sweet add sweetner FLV sweetness .03% or cap supper sweet .5% to pop put those fruit notes. if you want more of a sour note WF sweet and sour rhubarb at 2.5% could also be added here to support some of those sour notes, as well as VT sour lemon at around 1.50% . A bit of cap sugar cookie to add more texture and butter notes if you want to around 2.5%

A POD variation of my recipe, Leopards Blööd. I didnt know how this would taste in my breeze 2, but I am very happy with it. I can taste all of the elements that were incorporated. I haven’t given it time to steep yet, but I am sure it will improve with time. Great as a SNV IMO.

Another Pod recipe I threw together really quick. Your standard strawberry lemonade!

Inspired by SkiddlzNinja’s “God Milk”, I boosted the strawberry and swapped the TPA Cheesecake Graham Crust for INW Yes We Cheesecake because I’ve fallen in love with it ever since the Cheesecake episode of Noted. It’s a little creamier and less “crusty” than TPA but I think it works great in this recipe.

This is a Blue Raspberry and Strawberry Slush recipe that is named after my wife because it’s her favorite. I’ve gone through many versions before finally settling on this one. The percentages are high and the flavor is strong but that’s exactly what she wanted so feel free to dial down anything that you feel is too much. If you mix this up, I hope you enjoy it as much as she has. Let me know what you think!

The longer I vape, the more I get sick of flavors quicker and it's been a problem.
ADV recipes are a must and I've discovered that LESS flavor is more in the long run.
Anytime I make a great tasting recipe, I'm sick of it the next day just because it's TOO MUCH. So I've taken a new direction.
Here's something that doesn't get old quickly. It's refreshing yet subtle at the same time.
Don't shy away because you see "mint". It's not strong and it's exactly what this strawberry needs.

This mix was truly inspired by Dazcole - Fantastic. I was after a more sugary soda mix, where Fantastic had some authentic notes to it. Originally "Fanta" that started in europe had a bit of orange juice in it, however today's recipe contains no orange juice. Fun lil fact for you right there.

This is smack you in the face orange - kind of like a malaysian style mix. If you mix this up, please let me know how you feel about it.

Blood Orange FW + Tanger FA + Shisa Orange INW - This is my orange base, and it creates a delicious sweet blood orange
Strawberry TFA - I used this here to help blend the fruits together
WS-23 - (20% Dilution) Cools everything down, gives you the sense that there is some fizzyness also
Jelly Candy - To help out with the body of the soda, and also sell a more candylike orange flavour
Cactus - Adds some wetness to the mix

The Year of Mixing Week 43 - Spooky Halloween Eye Ball Cupcakes.

I decided the cake was going to be a fruity chocolate cake with a blending of CAP Cupcake, FLV Red Velvet, and TFA Ruby Chocolate. The ruby chocolate has that hint of fruitiness to it so that it ties in the red velvet into the strawberry flavored frosting and the light coconut red colored drizzle on top. A touch of marzipan let's you know you're eating those little marzipan candy props ( the eyeball and knife in the cupcake) and the FW bavarian cream just acts as a rich blender to bring all the flavors to a smooth creamy exhale.

A touch of sweetness is listed, but you can feel free to use whatever sweetener you prefer or non at all. IF you forgo any sweetener, I suggest putting in 0.5% FA Juicy Strawberry to sweeten it up a bit more beyond what the Marzipan is doing in this recipe. You want it to be sweet, it's a cupcake after all.

It's okay off the shake, at least it's vapeable, but it is a tad dry to start out with. As it steeps the dryness of the chocolate lessens as the creams and cakes start to develop more. I suggest a 2 week minimum steep, but 3 to 4 weeks works better.

Most of the strawberry cakes that I tried lacked the richness that I was looking for. With Paddy Cakes, I've added FE Sweet Rice to help fill out and lift the FW Yellow Cake to get a rich, moist yellow cake base; I love the way that the Yellow Cake and Sweet Rice dance and embrace each other. A little FA Meringue rounds out the cake and completes it.

I borrowed a technique @Shyndo used in his Mango Sticky Rice...the CAP Super Sweet is meant to tame the slight bitterness that Sweet Rice tends toward, rather than provide sweetness to the recipe, and it works very well, here.

I prefer the classic TFA Strawberry Ripe/TFA Strawberry combination, over CAP Sweet Strawberry/Shisha Strawberry mix, as I feel it works better in bakery recipes. The latter seems to sit on top, while the former seems to blend into the recipe better, and the TFA combo does not disappoint, here. A little lemon zest brings just a tad of brightness to the fruit.

I recommend an overnight steep, before the initial taste, to let the Sweet Rice calm down a bit. After 3 days, the recipe is very good, but if you can wait 14 days or more, Strawberry Paddy Cakes becomes amazing. Give this recipe a try, and let me know what you think. Enjoy!

2 sugar cookies fresh out of the oven, but not TOO fresh out of the oven. They have been sitting there for about 45 minutes. Crisp on the outside, with a gooey warm center.

Homemade CREAMY CREAMY ice cream with fresh strawberries diced perfectly through out, pancaked in between 2 of those cookies.

OPTIONAL: A cold glass of 2% or whole milk sitting next door, ready for a quick dip to top everything off.
