Huh, that is a new one. It seems close to Nature's Flavors...

Sample of two nearly identically named flavorings:
Nature's Flavors, "Organic Flavors, Vegetable Glycerin, and Organic Ethyl Alcohol."
Crave Gourmet, "Organic Vegetable Glycerin, Organic and Natural Flavours, Organic Ethyl Alcohol."

Pretty close, and MAY be the same thing as Nature's Flavors flavorings are natural and they say a number of times that their VG is organic too. BUT, note big but, NF does not have a Funky Monkey flavoring like CG has.

I haven't tried them, obviously, but I would be interested to see any followup from those that do, or have.

It's funny, as a chef, I keep thinking I could do so much better with ejuice flavors than most places. Most ejuice vendors just use the flavors straight up, you read the list for the flavorings offered from Amoretti, or Flavor Art, used for any baking, cooking, confectionary work, and those are the eliquid flavors. Why would you bother to hire a chef to make it and then not employ your culinary knowledge to make it better?

Hello,

I came across this thread and want to answer some of your questions. When we first started Crave we did have NF as ONE of SEVERAL product vendors. However, their service is crap and their products are highly unstable requiring a significant amount of modification just to not break down or completely mess up your atomizer. Not to mention that we have completely outgrown their supply capabilities. We have partnered with a Lab and all our base flavours extracts are custom and blended by us using products from various places around the globe + components we make.

graffinfected - Do you really think I'd be stupid enough to just do a strait up relabel? Give me a break! :rolleyes:

Additionally, being a Chef, I have a very large culinary network and we pull products from around the globe to produce our products (Including Real Vanilla Beans and other spices). We buy/create bases to use in blending our own custom flavours and most of what you currently see on our site is only our pantry. If we create a base to use in one of our other flavours, we offer both so others can make their own blends. We have over 100 custom blends in various stages of testing. Some have already been released (e.g., Funkey Monkey, Creamsicle, Arctic Blueberry, Cranberry Fireball, and Hawaiian POG to name only a few of them). It takes time to develop quality recipes and test them, and retest them, and then test them again! Just ask rebgold, she's a Chef. You don't just roll out new products on a global scale without adequate testing and market research. That's LUDICROUS! :-x

We're just getting warmed up..... :laugh:

Cinnamon Bun Extract and Pumpkin Pie Extract (envisionng the vats filled with cinnamon buns & pumpkin pies covered with organic alcohol...steeping away until they can be extracted). ::::silly grin:::

Being an herbalist and a chef (with no degree), I've always understood that an extract is created by using the actual substance one is extracting along with a solvent...and then removing the original substance to leave the extract.

All joking aside, it would appear some of what you've named "Extracts" are true extracts made with organic fruits/spices/herbs and organic alcohol (then somehow processed to remove the sugars & substances that can't be vaped) - and some of what you've named "Extracts" involve the use of organic 'flavor chemicals'...would that be correct?

Which agency/agencies certify your organics?

WHOA, just clicked around a bit and saw this (under DIY, Double Strength eJuice): //http://www.craveejuice.com/collections/diy-double-strength-ejuice/products/chai-tea-double-strength

Double Strength eJuice is twice as strong as our regular eJuice

Allows you to use your own bases when blending your own eJuice without the hassle of starting from scratch!


Mix and match to create your own custom flavours!


Add between 10% - 40% of base before vaping


Our Gourmet Organic Chai eJuice is blended with all natural vegetable glycerin made from sweet potatoes, giving it a smooth and rich flavour with lots of vapor! Our highly experienced Chef's blend the finest natural and organic ingredients to make the best eJuice around.​

So if I were to buy this ( $17.95 30ml), I'd add 10%-40% your product (that you're calling a "base") into my blend of VG/PG/Nic, creating a juice that's 10%-40% flavoring?

What percentage is recommended for the ones that aren't "double strength"?
