Given that the festive season is almost upon us......... I was thinking that I'd like to make a christmassy type of juice to vape.

I'm looking for something like a christmas pud type of taste or anything along those lines, can anyone recommend some flavourings that I could mix up?

Sorry, I don't have a good answer Just didn't want to leave a post called Help unanswered

Sounds like a tricky one. CCW does a christmas cake flavour. I haven't tried it. dizzi has some..

Thanks giles.............. I'd already put in an order for some christmas cake flavouring from CCW the other day

I was just wondering if there was other flavours that I could use to make a xmas pud type of juice.............. cant seem to find anything in the online "juice receipe" for that or anything suitably festive

Didn't Frogster hint that he was going to do a Christmas cake flavor juice?

Frogster's Christmas Cake is already on sale on his site

For Xmas pud I guess you're looking for dried fruit / peel / spice / brandy type flavours. If you find them, put a sixpence in the bottle for the genuine flavour

I have not seen a Christmas pudding pre made concentrate, but with the right ingredients it should be feasible to make. I would suggest you could use:-

a cake/pudding flavour like Graham Cracker or Cake type base mix, maybe even a drop of pie crust
a ready mixed fruit flavour if you can find one (sultanas, raisins, currants) or make some from separates
apple
cherry
orange
lemon
almond
brown sugar (sweetener)
brandy flavouring

Not an easy one….

I have the CCW Christmas Cake, but is very marzipan, it would not be suitable in my opinion for a pudding, but good for a base for a crimbo cake but needs other flavours added (I have already gone down that path).

I do indeed. Mixed it at 3% with 3% Almond and 16% Chocolate (all CCW) and got something that reminded me of Turkish Delight. Quite a floral note to it. Of course, I'm not sure whether that floral note is from the Christmas Cake or the Almond as I haven't tried either on their own yet.

As I rather like a bit of Christmas Pudding to go with my brandy butter (my mum's brandy butter is divine), I'd like to come up with a suitable vape as well. I'm thinking brandy, cream, a teeny bit of cherry perhaps, some nutty and spicy (nutmeg, ginger, clove, cinnamon, teeny amounts) flavours but fairly heavy on the pudding/sultana/raisin flavours. With that many flavours though it'll need steeping for a month before it's vapable, so I'd better get cracking. Anyone know where we can get sultana/raisin flavouring?

perfumers apprentice does raisin I have just got some, but that was from thier American site dont know about UK suppliers.

[dizzi]

A fairly extensive Google has shown precisely nothing in the raisin/sultana type flavourings available in the UK. I'm going to have a play with graham cracker and a variety of fruits and spices and see what I can come up with. I'm only a few days into this mixing malarky though, so I doubt I'll get anything workable this side of Christmas next year...

Looks like it will be back to the drawing board

I'm sure Decadent Vapours did a juice/concentrate in a Crimbo Cake/Pud flavour last year . . . but they don't seem to have it now.

Might be worth keeping an eye on their site though . . . .

will do.............. thanks perpy

DV has Christmas Pudding as part of their Christmas Collection ready-made selection pack, along with Mince Pie, Choc Orange, Mulled Wine and Cranberry. Unfortunately none of them seem to be available either as larger bottles of ready-made or as flavouring only. Shame

[Perpetua]

What a pity Dizzi . . . maybe we should email DV and ask if they would consider selling the concentrate for a couple of those flavours?

[dizzi]

Excellent idea, I'd be up for at least 3 of them and probably all 5. As concentrates, naturally. Anybody brave enough to ask?
