Mouthfeel 6/10
Medium body and sweetness with a light caramel sweetness. I would describe it has having a fluffy/cakey density.
Throat Hit 1/10
Experienced no throat hit.
Flavor Properties
Nice fluffy and slightly moist cake taste with the sweetness having a slight caramel taste to it. The taste is slightly darker/heavier than a real yellow cake.
Relatable Flavors
Most similar to the taboo FW Yellow Cake but this also has some similarity in texture and taste to FLV Cupcake Batter.
Update: to get most similar taste and to substitute for FW yellow cake use this at 2-3 times the % called for FW yellow cake in a recipe. Not quite as potent as FW yellow cake but just as good IMO.
Off flavors
While I wouldn’t consider it an “off” flavor it does have a slight caramel taste to it which may just be how I am interpreting the sweetness.
Position In The Recipe
Would make an excellent base note for bakeries.
Pairings
Creams and fruits. Could see this working well in a parfait recipe or taking the direct replacement at 2-3 times the % called for FW Yellow Cake.
Recipe
Bronuts SANS FW Yellow Cake
7% CAP Glazed Donut 3-4% ChemNic Yellow Cake .75% INW Biscuit .75% FA Joy
Notes
I was eager to try this newly released flavor to pt it against the venerable FW Yellow Cake that has yet to have a “safe” replacement. ChemNic recommends 10-15% of this flavor as a standalone so I started with 10%. It can stand on its own at 10% but it is very simple yet still enjoyable as a single flavor. First thing I set off to do with it was subbing it for FW Yellow Cake in my old favorite Bronuts (props to /u/enyawreklaw). The short of it is that this flavor works as a FW Yellow Cake replacement. Comparing original Bronuts to the subbed version I seem to be noticing less of the “waxy” chocolate taste. That you /u/chrisdvr1 for the formatting I borrowed from. I am a complete n00b for flavor notes as you may have noticed from some of my other posts but got to start somewhere I suppose.
Rating 95/100
Close enough to replace FW Yellow Cake
