Cupcake world question !!!!

[Grandad]

Hi sorry in advance if this has been asked ive looked about and cant find the answer im after.

I want to buy some flavourings from CW do i mix them the same % as i would if they were from capella etc, I see some of the flavourings state they are ok to use for vaping the double concentrate ones.

Many thanks

Depends what the flavours are Grandad . . . as a rule I find CCW's to be on the slightly weaker side, than Capella/TPA etc - 25% for their fruit flavours works perfectly for me, if I'm using them as ' standalones '.

Something like their Cream, then about 1% is enough!

Normally, CCW are a little weaker than others... 20-25% is a pretty good starting point for most of them Grandad. There are a couple that are pretty strong but I can't remember which ones they are... Perpetua should be able to enlighten both of us

Have to agree. CC has ccw at 30% and i have it at 25% on stand alone fruit flavours.

Thankyou Perpetua lairey Roscopecotrain for the quick replies ive been looking at some of the recipes on here and like the sound of them but have got CCW flavourings in them so if i stick to the % on the recipes i should be ok.

Off to CCW site to do some ordering

Thanks again

I'm a huge fan of CCW's range Grandad - brilliant value even if you do have to use a little more. I've not had a bad one yet from the ones I've bought.

ETA: Actually I tell a fib . . . Christmas Cake wasn't that spectacular, but one duff one out of quite a number is all ok for me.

Agree with much of whats already been said that 20% is a good place to start.

Honey & lemongrass are two other of their flavours that only require 2-3% like their cream flavouring.

I use CCW peppermint a lot and imo thats good at around 10%.

Best practice is just mix a small amount of each flavour to gauge what percentage works for you. This way you also get to learn about each individual flavour with minimal waste.
