Vanilla Custard Flavor-SC-WF

**Vanilla Custard (WF) 3.5% (12-17-22)** -- Alrighty, the LAST ONE in this big ass series, the VC. I think reviewing VC's is one of the HARDEST flavors to review, as what people actually want out of them, varies WILDLY. So there isn't one that the best for everyone. This one to my tastes, was actually quite good, and here's why. It presented as a mix of a traditional eggy custard, and a pudding. The ratio was hard to quantify, but I'm going to settle on 60% Custard / 40% pudding, with the custard obviously in the lead. Although there was some egg-y-ness, it wasn't overpowering, overwhelming, or off-putting (for those of you who don't love the heavy eggy-ness). I think WF did a good job straddling both sides of the road, to increase the appeal. Now if you want(ed) a straight eggy custard, or straight pudding, this isn't for you, but if you're in the middle, I think it will be. At 3.5% it was smack on delicious and full, and had similar nuances like many of the existing VC's, egg, butter, some vanilla, rich, creamy, etc. It was actually below mid level sweet, and I didn't detect any off notes throughout 3 testers (for science and #$%^&). the mouthfeel was great, and with my personal tastes being a custard/pudding mix, I couldn't really mark it down. Just a very slight dryness on the finish, but it was so minor, I hesitated to mention it. For a great, creamy, rich VC, that straddles both the traditional custard and pudding this one might need a spot on your rack. With nothing other than some vanilla swirling around, this one could be push/pulled into almost anything you could want or need. Finishing the series with a BANG, and leaving this at **9.8/10**.

I thought I had found all the best vanilla custards, until I tried this. My usual go to custard WAS CAP vc, but I tried this as a sub in my custard recipes along with custard premium and WOWZA! The vanilla in this is what drew me in. Not to be dramatic but the vanilla in this is amazing. It is so vibrant and smooth, I think I could use this solo and be fine with it. It doesn't fade, even after 4 months. The vanilla is different than cap or tfa. I think this will most certainly be used a lot more in my custards. Great job WF and thank you Bull City. I def recommend this.

I’m a vanilla custard fan and have most mainstream vanilla custards. I swapped Cap VC for this VC and used Custard Premium and the vanilla is so bright and vibrant! The custard is smooth. This is a very good concentrate! I purchased a larger bottle . I’ll be using this a lot more. I made the same recipe 3 times, using TFA v1, Cap v1, and this. Very close to Cap v1. It’s a winner!

I will be mixing this with creams and some fruits, But if you’re looking for a easy alternative, Give this a go.
