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.

Lovely custard, needs a while to steep to bring it out fully, added 2% cap hazelnut to a mix and gone through 4 tanks since making it, mixed with French vanilla, New York cheesecake and marshmallow to sweeten, shake and vape for me

This is the best custard on the market it’s in nearly ever mix I make at different % depending on how I use it in fact I think I only make about 5 recipes that this is not in buy it mix it vape it

Excellent custard – mixed at 10% (in the end…), anything above and it’s way too strong and end up coughing.

This has a great taste, but I generally go for the V2 with a touch of sweet cream or Vanilla Bean ice cream to avoid the nasties. Both this and V2 do need a good steep. Don’t expect them to reach their best for at least 3 weeks.

Alan (Verified Customer) –
I could not do without this custard, miles ahead of the rest and used in most of the big recipes you will come across – this needs a steep like all custards but it time it is outstanding!!!
jeffy447 (Verified Customer) –
Amazing. Deffo one for the kit bag. Mix with at least 10% as there’s not much flavour below that.

My second favourite custard always in my stash
Zafir (Verified Customer) –
Vanilla is overpowering. Can’t vape it for too long. I’ll try the other variants of this.

Best Custard i have tried, next day delivery, cant ask for more. I use it in 60vg/40vg at 15% flavour. Second 100ml on order within a week due to friends asking for my mix
Michael (Verified Customer) –
I have tried a few custard flavours: FA,PA,FW,t-juice etc. IMHO Nothing comes close to this, especially after steeping. V2 IMO is not as good as V1. This is my favourite single flavour, period.

FINALLY!! I’ve searched and scorched the planet for a REALLY good Vanilla Custard. This is by far the nicest out there, and I’ve tried a lot. Almost as good as Digby’s (DMC)…..Almost.
