Has anyone made a really scrummy caramel cappucino or can anyone recommend a tried and tested brand of flavouring I can try. I had some ready made cappuccino and some ready made caramel that I've been having a play around with. 2 to 1 ratio seems to work with that along with a bit of sweetener but the problem is I'm trying to replicate my all time fave Chef's Vapour one. I doubt if Chefs Flavours Lew or Chefs Vapour Karl would give a way trade secrets so any tips on the best way of going about this are welcome. Would it be better getting a caramel and a cappuccino or would it be better getting an all-in-one caramel cappuccino. Problem is OH has discovered it now so supplies of ready made are virtually non-existent now I can feel the withdrawal symptoms already

Karl would string me up if I gave away his recipe! I would go with what Perpetua suggested. It would save you the time of trying to get the right balance of caramel to cappuccino but I will give you one tip if you want to blend your own...... Caramel (original) is the best IMHO.

Lol I wouldn't want to get you in trouble. If I make a total disaster of things I'll be crawling back on hands and knees begging for forgiveness. I'll bear it in mind about the original caramel though Thanks hun.

Yeah the TPA caramel cappuccino is very nice - just don't drip any of the flavour on yourself coz it takes ages to get the smell to go away as was said its very strong.

I got one drop on my finger and that hand smelled of it for three days, didn't matter what I washed it with. . .

I love the caramelly coffee smell. Can't get enough of it but I can see it being a bit overpowering if you spill a concentrate. My box of in-use juices smells really strongly of it when you take off the lid and that's just from the ready to vape bottle! Off to order yet more concentrates now Will report back on the results in a few days unless I overdose on all the caffeine-ness that's going to be flying round.

Has anyone made a really scrummy caramel cappucino Not yet, but this is one of the main things I want to try to achieve. I had some ready made cappuccino and some ready made caramel that I've been having a play around with. 2 to 1 ratio seems to work with that along with a bit of sweetener but the problem is I'm trying to replicate my all time fave Chef's Vapour one. I doubt if Chefs Flavours Lew or Chefs Vapour Karl would give a way trade secrets so any tips on the best way of going about this are welcome. Would it be better getting a caramel and a cappuccino or would it be better getting an all-in-one caramel cappuccino. From what I can recall, Chef's Vapour's Caramel Cappuccino reminded me of Inawera's cappuccino flavouring, so that might be worth trying. (I'm sure there are other ingredients as well, but the Inawera cappuccino should provide at least a decent base flavour, I think.) In the same vein: The one juice which I'd love to be able to recreate above all others is Grizwald's Caramel Cappuccino. I suspect it has something strong in the background which is either TPA Caramel Cappuccino or possibly FA Cappuccino (both of which are pretty pungent), but there's more going on besides (possibly something a bit popcorny or peanut buttery - but unfortunately my taste buds are not refined enough to be able to pick apart all the flavour notes). If anyone has any tips on getting near to the overall flavour of this juice, I'd be happy to hear them. (I'd also like to be able to recreate the now sadly unavailable Pixie Juice Caramel Latte - but my memory of its flavour is beginning to fade, along with my hopes of ever tasting its loveliness again . Cue sad face: )

Well I did actually listen (for once ) to what people have said and I mixed up 5ml using 1 drop of TPA Caramel Cappuccino flavour. All I can say is It's bloomin strong stuff. It's now been diluted down to 1 drop in 10ml and it's a lot better although not quite right yet. Not sure whether to add a bit more caramel, a bit of sweetener or a bit of dulce de leche. On a side note I made up 10ml of strawberry cheesecake that smells like I wanted it to. It's just awaiting a little taste test.
