FA White Peach

Wayne

Flavor Profile: FA’s White Peach is the only other peach flavoring they offer, if you don’t count their Apricot flavoring (which is not a peach). Interestingly enough, many other flavoring companies contain multiple peaches, all with their own distinct tastes. This is part of the reason why FA’s White Peach is a bit disappointing. It’s just not that unique. The flavor is much like an authentic peach, with its brightness and sweetness all up front, followed through with a lightly… Continue Reading →

FA New York Cheesecake

Wayne

When FlavourArt dropped their newest flavorings, I was actually quite excited seeing the types of profiles they were going after. New York Cheesecake was amongst them. Finally going back to “basic” profiles, or so I thought. Then I realized this wasn’t just a cheesecake, but one with strawberry. Is it good enough, and useful enough, to purchase? Flavor Profile: In my opinion, the king of the cheesecake is CAP’s New York Cheesecake. It’s a simple vanilla bean cheesecake, with excellent… Continue Reading →

FA Juicy Strawberry

Wayne

Flavor Profile: There was a lot of hype leading up to the release of this flavoring. Beta testers were singing its praises, some saying it’s the be-all-end-all strawberry flavor. The general consensus was that it was the perfect blend of TFA Strawberry and CAP Sweet Strawberry. But does the flavor live up to all this praise? Well, I’m not sure, but I can say that it’s pretty damn good. What I get is more of TFA Strawberry Ripe, blended with… Continue Reading →

FA Vienna Cream

Wayne

Flavor Profile: Vienna Cream is a delicious topping that I’m sure many have had even if they didn’t know it. It’s essentially just a buttercream icing. It’s got a richness about it that both incorporates the dairy as well as vanilla. And it’s sweet, meant as a topping for cakes and cupcakes. FA’s Vienna Cream does a damn good job of recreating this in its flavor. It’s a simple whipped cream like flavoring with some more emphasis on vanilla and… Continue Reading →

FA Lemon Sicily

Wayne

Flavor Profile: I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. FlavourArt is one of the best when it comes to creating wonderful, vivid, authentic fruits. And of course this is no different than with FA Lemon Sicily. The flavor I get from it is a fresh and juicy ripe Meyer Lemon with a touch of zest, and a slightly sour back end. Very similar to a lemonade. There isn’t much depth to the lemon, but this is OK because of… Continue Reading →

FA Fuji

Wayne

Flavor Profile: To be honest, this is an entry that should’ve been added a long time ago. Before I even go any further, I just want to say that this is a must have flavoring. When just talking about what it tastes like, I liken it to a more artificial, or candied Fuji apple. The way it nails that defining characteristic that makes a Fuji Apple what it is, is the best part about the flavoring. It’s sweet in such… Continue Reading →

FA Blood Orange

Wayne

Flavor Profile: One of my all-time favorite oranges comes from FA, and it’s their FA Mandarin. It’s a beautiful flavor that’s pleasantly sweet and charming, as well as accurate. I was hoping that FA Blood Orange would be a more “deep” blood orange variant. While it’s a good flavoring, it’s a bit similar, meaning it’s a bit inaccurate. So let’s talk about what’s wrong with the flavoring first. To me, it’s more of just a regular orange flavor. Almost clementine… Continue Reading →

FA Butterscotch

Wayne

Flavor Profile: FlavourArt is a company that does a really great job putting together flavorings that work well in vapor. And FA Butterscotch is no exception. I’m surprised at how nice the flavor is. It does nail that butterscotch flavor, but a different type of butterscotch, and not the thick velvety butterscotch we’ve all been looking for. I liken this more to a sharper, more thin butterscotch. One that comes in those pump coffee flavoring things. It’s almost like a butterscotch… Continue Reading →

FA Meringue

Wayne

Flavor Profile: FlavourArt’s Mer-en-gay has been a staple in mixers’ tool boxes for a long long time now, and for good reason. This is one of FlavourArt’s best offering in terms of accuracy, flavor, uniqueness, and overall usefulness. If you don’t know what a Meringue is, it’s a “French” dessert made from whipping the shit out of egg whites, and slowly dumping in sugar as you do it. Maybe touch it with some essence like a touch of vanilla or lemon.… Continue Reading →

FA Cookie

Wayne

Flavor Profile: This is one of the first flavorings that I purchased that really allowed me to take my mixing to the next level. FA Cookie is best described as a plain sugar cookie, slightly over baked, that’s grainy, slightly sweet, and has a nice weight that suits it well. One thing that needs to be said is the type of cookie this flavoring emulates. It’s NOT a doughy sugar cookie like what CAP Sugar Cookie emulates. This one is… Continue Reading →
