Unfortunate news indeed. Love their pear. Any idea what's the closest alternative for their pear?
I like FA's. The problem is that many recipes combine FA and Inw (or others) for a pear that's better than either on their own. It's not a given that the new one will be bad but reformulations seldom match the original ime.
I'm not a fan of my INW Milk Chocolate so if anyone wants to offer me an awesome 50ml's of DIY I'll gladly trade it.
Seems that chocolates and coffee's don't go too well with my palate.
Weird since I'm a coffee and chocolate fanatic.

I found exactly the same. Tried many different chocolates and coffees, but none of them tasted very nice to me. I have completely given up on those 2 flavours.
I need some help from the Diy guys. I've been searching for that main distinctive flavor in the local juice Frostees. That sweet upfront flavour. So i finally got Cereal 27 from capella. Its definitely that main taste in frostees. I dont want to try and clone it, i just need that main flavour. Now cereal 27 smells exactly like that, but when i mix it up, i tried from 1% - 8% . i let it steep overnight, i tried it in the morning, but there is absolutely no taste of that distinct taste in frostees, or they way the cereal 27 smells out of the bottle. All im getting is a cornflake and popcorn taste. . Does that distinctive sweet taste come alive with steeping or am i missing something?
Ok Frostees im sure uses alot of things to get the juice so good like creams, milks, sugars.
If you made a single flavor juice just by using Cereal 27 and it tastes like cornflakes, then id go and add some malted milk, Sweet cream, Brown sugar and see how that tastes. Im sure this will give you a similar juice or taste.
My guess it that you need something sweet to bring it alive. A sweet cream and/or brown sugar and/or frosting and/or sweetener. Here is a review of Cereal 27.
Try adding some FA Meringue to your juice, to me the flavour adds a dry sugaryness to any mixes. It might add that frosted sugar vibe that your looking for.
What @Greyz said. I haven't tasted Frostees and have no interest in cloning it. But a cereal with milk will usually have FA Meringue in there. Your cream base of choice (like VBIC and Bav) + Meringue + Hazelnut = cereal milk. Low percentages on Meringue (0.5-1) and Hazelnut (0.3-0.5).
@SAVaper, snap. My bottle of Crooks and Creams sits gathering dust on my desk and getting darker and darker. I'm hoping it will form its own black hole and vanish into itself one day. There are some fancied alternative chocolates like Baker Flavor Chocolate Truffle and Hangsen Australian Chocolate but we can't source them. Fortunately, I love white chocolate vapes. FW's is good and I also like TFA despite its bad rep for pepper. I will happily turn most choc recipes from milk/dark to white. I finally pulled the trigger on FW Creme de Menthe so I'll try Cuprian as a mint white chocolate. No coil gunking is an added bonus.
Coffees are just eish. I battled my way through 30ml of Smooth Morning Kick but that last tankful has been in my Limitless Plus for literally two months. I take two drags of it about every four days. Which is another reason why I only drip now. A tankful of manky juice is a hassle I can do without. Wayne recommends FA UP but meh, I'm not holding out high hopes. I've heard good things about NicVape Coffee (not the Cappuccino, just the straight Coffee) which is available from Vaperite.
skiddlz's tip of the week: y'all love using TFA Dragonfruit to make strawberry flavours pop but you can also use it to ripen bananas, particularly FA. I smaak me some FA Banana but it does need a bit of help so I'll be trying that one out.
And then something for the "local is lekker" crowd: Supreme Vape has now expanded their local line of house brand concentrates. There is a lot of the usual stuff in there, generic fruits and the like. But a few standouts caught my eye: Cookie Dough, Rum and Raisin, Rooibos, Ginger Biscuit, Toasted Coconut, Cucumber, Fanta Grape, Peanut. I'm particularly interested in the Cookie Dough because the major players in that profile, Cap Cake Batter and Flv Cupcake Batter, are both expensive and not that highly rated. Some interesting profiles there which you don't find often. I'll be trying a few of them out and will report back.
@incredible_hullk, I don't know that juice but Chrisdvr1 has several cookie recipes, based off his original Sugar Cookies and Cream which is possibly the highest rated recipe on ATF in recent times.

I have meringue at 1.2%, anything more and it tastes too much like meringue. I also have fw hazelnut at 0.75%
If you have already added FA Meringue then I'm afraid I'm all out of ideas on how to add that frosted sugar taste. Like @RichJB has already said the FA Meringue is used to add the frosty sugar to you cereal milk base. If already have it in there and it's not working then maybe try a combination of meringues, ie. TFA + FA.
I don't know your recipe but at a guess could not one or more of your other flavours be washing out the Meringue?
I've not mixed this personally but I have traded juice with a fellow ecigssa member and he sent me a 50ml of Sugar Cookies and Cream. If you like Sugar Cookie v1 then your bound to enjoy this juice
@bjorncoetsee, if you're after a commercial juice taste, maybe a generous dollop of sweetener? I would drop both the meringue and hazelnut slightly. Meringue gets funky really quickly and also mutes flavours. Less is more. If your cereal base needs some help, any of Cap Sugar Cookie, TFA Graham Cracker Clear or a small amount of TFA Cheesecake Graham Crust can help.
Snap! I was just going to suggest adding 0.7-1% CAP Super Sweet. I have never used FA Merignue over 1% in any recipe yet but judging from the smell I can imagine it's gets funky fast at higher percentages.
@bjorncoetsee your in the very capable hands of @RichJB - I'm sure a solution will be found
Hi @RichJB please let me know if the Cuprian works with a white choc.
Thanks

Thanks but I'm just busking it.
We need a Joel or Mike one of the top DIYers to provide insight.
I'm glad someone asked about this juice because I'm loving it.
Right off the bat when I tasted it I thought Cap Sugar Cookie V2. That and maybe Cap Butter Cream or something ?
Guys, apologies if this has been posted b4 ... below is a list of flavour impacted by inw reformulation... but sad that milk choc and smoked plum is on the list

I don't know if this is the right thread to post my recipe. But if anyone likes wicks chappies, check out my recipe on ELR. I'd say its 98% as close to eating a wicks chappie

My personal go to is Koolada mixed with 1 of the others. But I'm a serious menthol fan and most can't vape my diy without feeling their ears burn
Hahaha!
I can tell it's a good menthol when my nose starts running!
Finally someone who understands
