Does anyone know of one? Friend of mine wants a caramel type juice and I can't be arsed making a hundred experiments to come up with a good one as I'm not looking to vape it myself. Could feature anything else but caramel/toffee would have to be the top note. Thanks.
 
Maybe RY4D 10% (like it a bit higher myself) FA caramel 5%, FA marshmallow 4%. I like it. Dunno, that's the only real one i have made with caramel.
 
Try an existing recipe (the cannoli one you posted is a good example), with caramel added, and perhaps some of the other flavours reduced or removed.

I've found the key to good caramel mixes to be a premixed caramel base - toffee, caramel, butterscotch in equal amounts with a touch of maple and brown sugar. After a couple of weeks this mixture becomes very pungent and the strength increases exponentially.

I'll give that a try, thanks. I have a multitude of caramel/toffee/maple/brown sugar concentrates so I'll make up a caramel base and maybe use it with a cream base and hint of banana or something. I've been quite surprised with the scarcity of caramel type recipes out there though. I'd have thought it would have been a popular enough profile but I haven't found anything well rated on ELR.
Thanks Ment.
 
I go through a lot of these:

1.5% FA caramel
3% FA vienna cream
0.5% FA fig, or 0.5% FA butterscotch.

Both variations are very good, to me.
 
I think the vienna cream somehow brings out the caramel, even though the cream is the main flavour in the mix.

Thank you. Do those come out as quite bold juices with a strong caramel flavour?
 
For me, aye, sometimes I mix it at 1%/2%/0.5%. But you can scale the ratios. up/down to your preference. The caramel and vienna cream in that ratio 1:2 is a great base I find, but also excellent just as it is as well. I sometimes add lemon, for example.
