ATF MVP

This is something a bit different. I wanted to create a recipe with only flavors that most people already have, as a kind of challenge. This started a brainstorming session in which i stared at my collection on ATF, looking at the number of recipes that the flavors i had were in. I wrote a short list of flavors that were used in over 3000 recipes on ATF, the "MVPs", at the most commonly used percentage and narrowed it down (after a small amount of adjusting) to this final form: TFA Strawberry Ripe: 4% TFA Vanilla Bean Ice Cream: 3% CAP Vanilla Custard v1: 3% CAP Sugar Cookie: 3% FA Fresh Cream: 1% FA Meringue: 1% So the notes on this are less of a "what i was going for" and more of a "what had happened was..." so here it goes: I mixed this at 70/30 VG(ECX)/PG(Essential Depot), with 5mg/ml nic (ECX 100% VG), and steeped it for two weeks. This tastes like straight up delicious strawberry shortcake ice cream, with a hint of sugary milk from the bottom of a bowl of crunchberries. the Vanilla Custard gives its rich mouthfeel, the Sugar Cookie becomes shortbread chunks, the ice cream does its job as advertised, and the Ripe Strawberry works like a charm. None of that should come as much of a surprise, as you already have and use these flavors often. Fresh Cream and Meringue do an excellent job as accents here; boosting milkiness and sweetness respectively. I hope this gives other people ideas on how to "mix outside the box." At the end of the day this is just a run-of-the-mill strawberries and cream, but what surprised me most is that developing a recipe in this odd fashion actually yielded a delicious recipe! I know you all have these flavors, so mix this up and tell me what you think!
