31 delicious percent really Q . . . I never count additives as part of an overall flavour total, but what's 2% between Custardy lovers.

You can always try the basic PVC recipe or this is another VC recipe:

15% Capella VC
2% Dulche de Leche
2% EM

But neither are as nice as Custardy Lovechild for me anyway.

Starting to live up to my name (dad has called me jack custard from being young) and get tempted by custards. Didn't want to try them as I love the real thing and didn't want it to be caca lala.

Looking at custardy love child I need to start mixing. 100% vg too clouds...

menthol crystals - available in most chemists very cheaply... dissolve in PG and you have homemade menthol concentrate.

Vanillin powder - widely available online... again dissolve in PG for homemade vanillin concentrate.

With both of these, a little goes a long way... the tub of menthol crystals will make you about 20ml of strong menthol concentrate.  I have no idea how much vanillin concentrate you would get from that 100g bag linked, but about 1 heaped teaspoon will make you 10ml concentrate

Vanillin sounds a strange little beast

The largest use of vanillin is as a flavoring, usually in sweet foods. The ice cream and chocolate industries together comprise 75% of the market for vanillin as a flavoring, with smaller amounts being used in confections and baked goods. Vanillin is also used in the fragrance industry, in perfumes, and to mask unpleasant odors or tastes in medicines, livestock fodder, and cleaning products. It is also used in the flavor industry, as a very important key note for many different flavors, especially creamy profiles. Additionally, vanillin can be used as a general purpose stain for developing thin layer chromatography (TLC) plates to aid in visualizing components of a reaction mixture. This stain yields a range of colors for these different components.

I'm guessing from the name that it is basically used as a vanilla flavour

Lovely stuff it is Q . . . I use 1% with lots of Candy/Dessert flavours now, adds a nice creamy depth to them for me.
