. . . . . all is not smooth in custard waters it would seem. Gosh, terribly upsetting for those of us who enjoy calms waters in the custard of our brains.

I ordered some of the isle of custard on the 25th. The payment went through and I had the confirmation email of the order. I've just checked and it doesn't appear I've received an email saying it's been dispatched. I haven't been home as yet, but as of yesterday it still hadn't arrived. I'm hoping I get to try it.

This seems to be the latest post i can find on what is going on if it helps jayjayYes of course, Isle of custard were never going away, isle of flavours was created to keep the Brand alive for when the time came to reformulate them ready to put through TPD. As they would be slightly different to meet compliance. I was never in a rush to get these ready for compliance for a few very good reasons, those that really know me, know why. Believe me I wish I was able to do it in time for this window, but for me, vaping is never going away. So there's always time. Isle of Custard was in no way ever closing down, just the website. Isle of custard will always be our business name, just integrated with Isle of flavours. I still plan to make our range TPD compliant, it's just going to take me a while to get there. I have had plenty of offers from other companies to either collaborate with them or sell on the brand, due to trust issues I will not merge with another company. With Isle of custard being the greatest achievement of my life, it's most certainly not for sale. We will be keeping everyone updated on our new Facebook page @isleofcustardsisleofflavours Also our new website isleofflavours Thanks to everyone giving us their support and apologies for any confusion at this time with current circumstances.

Is it possible to make your own custard concentrate (obviously not from custard powder)?

I get the impression that it is basically Vanilla + sweetner.

From what I've read most flavours are man made synthetic from various chemicals but I'm far from in the know tbh

I received this newsletter yesterday from IofC if it's of any interest to you dalealan. " We will be adding 2 new flavours to our collection very soon, Christmas is coming so we're feeling the cinnamon right now! Churrosity Creek - Creamy Churro's with a touch of cinnamon Apple o' Cinn - Juicy ripe apples with pastry and a dash of cinnamon We will also be adding our new range of liquids Isle of Custard's Isle of Shisha High VG blends ready to use! What's the future for Isle of Custard? With recent events and the early closure of our main website, and the loss of our main facebook page, there have been an array of questions and confusion. Rumours that we are closing down completely. Some rumours also that we are even under new management. This isn't the case, in fact far from it. We are still and will always trade as Isle of Custard, The same Captain, same management. We just had to shut down the main website early due certain circumstances. This website was always going to happen due to the TPD so everyone that have come to love our custard blends over the years can continue to do so. We do aim to release and rework our range for use on the high street as an e-liquid, but just not yet. We've had a fast and furious few years here since our voyage began. We're a very small company with only 2 employees. One being the grumpy Captain himself, who is taking time out to reflect and think about, and to also have the time to reformulate and create a range worthy of our reputation so far. Where others are in a mad rush to get ahead in this progessive industry, we're more than happy to keep a steady pace. Although we're dirty rotten Pirate's, we will always place the value of Family over Gold. Talking of gold........ don't forget our current discount code 20TWENTY is still valid, but only for one more week! www.isleofflavours.co.uk/ "
