Capella Vanilla Custard (Version 1) continues to be our most popular flavour concentrate. In our opinion, this is the finest vanilla custard flavour on the market today because it is truly authentic. A rich creaminess and just the right amount of vanilla combine together to make this Capella concentrate the most delectable of custards.
Capella concentrates are among the world’s finest and enjoy a well deserved reputation among DIY vapers. The Capella name is world renowned for providing a huge variety of great tasting flavours, which are produced with the finest ingredients at their manufacturing facility in California, USA. All Capella flavour concentrates conform to the strictest standards of quality and purity enforced by the State of California.
Mixing Guide
Capella’s Vanilla Custard is great on its own, mixed anywhere between 10% and 20%. The full strength, however, takes a few weeks to steep and really come through – so initially less is more.
The quality of this custard really shines when blended with other flavours. Even mixed at very small percentages it has the quality of rounding other flavours and adding depth and creaminess.
Recipe Ideas
A great starting point is a Strawberry Custard using:
10% Capella Sweet Strawberry (New RF)
5% Capella Vanilla Custard (V1)
The combination of the sharp sweet strawberry and the creamy custard is a great all day vape, reminiscent of adding a dollop of jam into your custard as a treat.
For a softer strawberry, Flavour Apprentice Strawberry (Ripe) works well, but you may have to lower the custard percentage as it may overpower the strawberry.
This custard also works well with many other fruit flavours. Our personal favourites include Capella Apple Pie (V2), TFA Blueberry (Wild), and Inawera Lemon.
You can also add a few percent of Vanilla Custard to TPA Cheesecake (Graham Crust) or Capella New York Cheesecake to really round off the flavours and add more depth. Or combine with the fruit flavours as well for a multitude of cheesecakes.
These are just our rough ideas and the results from experimenting and we are sure you have your own great recipes including Vanilla Custard V1.

Notes
- This is a concentrated flavouring to be mixed in a DIY e-liquid. It is not to be vaped without diluting.
- We suggest mixing most Capella concentrates at approximately 15% initially and then adjusting to your personal taste.
- All of the Capella concentrates are PG based.
- We buy gallon sizes directly from Capella (in the USA) and rebottle them into 10ml, 100ml and 500ml bottle sizes here in the UK.
- There can be noticeable colour differences between different batches of the same flavour. This is a natural result of the flavour manufacturing process.

Quite simply the best Vanilla Custard I have used. It has been my ADV for the last 6 months. I started vaping to rid my addiction of smoking, only to become addicted to VC V1 😀 Amazing. 5 Stars.
Aidan (Verified Customer) –
Simply lovely, and the best flavour for recovering bad blends.

Amazing vanilla custard! Certainly the best I’ve tried thus far.
John (Verified Customer) –
Very nice, just ordered some more. Can wait for it to steep.

LOVE IT. ADV 24/7. I prefer V1 over V2 (and you probably will too) even though V2 is similar it loses the buttery undertone which makes V1 so glorious.
Szabolcs (Verified Customer) –
yep, agree, the best custard out there. It is very popular and is a must for every diyer
Jennifer (Verified Customer) –
This is a quality custard flavour. It has great depth, although I still need to steep some properly (as opposed to speed steeping) to give it a real chance to shine. Tried this with some caramel and it was amazing with just a bit of warming and shaking.
Keith (Verified Customer) –
What can i say!!! Nothing even come close to this, it’s the best custard there is “PERIOD”
Chris (Verified Customer) –
I took the advice of a much more experienced diy-er and added this to my monthly order, OMG!!! How I’ve gone so long without this being a staple flavour I’ve no idea!! I’ve been using cheaper custards from elsewhere thinking they’ll do the job as its only a background flavour after all. How wrong was I!!!! This custard is a standalone flavour and the BEST addition to any dessert or berry flavour you have. Having tried it now, it will be the FIRST flavour on any order for me
Stefan (Verified Customer) –
A must have for every DIY vape kit. buy more than one bottle ;p
joseph (Verified Customer) –

alex_bbb123 (Verified Customer) –

Alim (Verified Customer) –
Outstanding vanilla cream flavor, noticed the flavor comes out better on a lower watts settings.
Jay (Verified Customer) –
Great custard flavour straight off the mix at 13% gonna be hard to let this one steep !
mark (Verified Customer) –
has the edge over other custards though @ a price!, never tried v2 yet though perfectly happy with v1
dean_jensen (Verified Customer) –
just echoing what everyone else here has said – this custard is PERFECT. mixed 100ml up earlier @ 13% 30PG/70VG and hot water bathed for 4-5 hours and it’s delicious already.
I’m not sure I’ll be able to leave this alone until it’s fully steeped.
