This is based on a candy recipe I use for Christmas. The actual truffles have a chocolate-espresso center, coated in white chocolate and sprinkled in nutmeg. The vape tastes just like one, though less sweet.

This recipe is the first tasty use I've found for nutmeg-tasting Holiday Spice flavor. It's also one of the few that I really love TFA White Choc in. Some of these are very strong concentrates, so the total percentage is just 12%, but it's very flavorful.

WHITE CHOCOLATE CAPPUCCINO TRUFFLES
6% TFA White Chocolate
3% TFA Sweet Cream --or-- 2% FA Fresh Cream (either works well)
1% FA Chocolate --or-- 1% FA Cocoa (I prefer Chocolate here; this helps balance the white chocolate flavor)
1% FA Coffee Espresso
0.5% to 1% TFA Holiday Spice (1% is perfect to me, but go lower if you want less nutmeg flavor)

I made my recipe yesterday for a friend who wanted a stronger espresso taste and less nutmeg. He says this tastes like a cappuccino from a European coffee shop. It turns it from a truffle into a beverage taste. I like it just as well as the original. Very rare for me to find one I can vape all day like this, yum!

Oh yeah, this has GOT to be a major winner! The minute I saw it (and realized we didn't have the Chocolate, only the Cocoa), I jumped on over the ECX and got it ordered. Now I can add this one to the top of the "must make list".

This looks wonderfully "balanced" with all kinds of yummy goodness - and the addition of the Holiday Spice (I know before I even taste it) is a stroke of genius. Nutmeg ROCKS with chocolate and/or coffee :)

Thank you so much for sharing this!

What do you think we could sub for the White Chocolate?...it has the custard notes!

Yeah, unfortunately I made the recipe before I knew TFA's White Choc and Sweet Cream had those ingredients.
My best suggestion is to use a bit under 1% of FA Vienna Cream instead of TFA's White Chocolate, and stick with the 2% FA Fresh Cream as shown in the first post. That will give you a great, rich cappuccino. The Holiday Spice will make it a bit like an eggnog capp. Still a Christmas-y flavor, but there is no other White Chocolate to use.

If you try, post back with your thoughts. FA Espresso, Vienna Cream, and Fresh Cream make great combinations. I do wish they made a white choc!
