Capella Vanilla Custard (Version 2) continues to be one of our most popular flavour concentrates. In our opinion, Capella 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. This version is diketone-free and many DIY mixers prefer to use this concentrate over Version 1.
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 (V2)
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 V2.

Ingredients
Artificial flavours, Propylene Glycol, Water.
Capella Vanilla Custard Version 1, which contains diketones (acetoin, diacetyl and acetyl propionyl) can be found here.
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.

Great flavour!

V1 was Nice, this isn’t to far off. Nice mixed with vbic and strawberry
Ian –
Almost as good as custard can get but not as good as V1. I smoked for 40 years and couldn’t give a stuff about “nasties”. Compared to tobacco it’s not a contest to worry about.
nospamplease.pw –
Not quite as creamy as the V1, and definitely needs a good steep, but no nasties, so definitely my go to for custard. I usually add 1% sweet cream or vanilla bean ice cream and 1% sweetener to round it off.
Tankgirl –
Well worth the wait while steeping. Good nasty free creamy custard., easily vaped on its own or mixed with anything else. Not tried V1, happy with this version. Superb service from Vapable, thank you.
Peter –
This is the best Diketone free version of custard that I’ve tried. It’s not quite up to the superb flavour of the V1 version but is a great compromise if you want to get rid of possible nasties in your flavourings. Leave it to steep for a few days and the flavour will improve massively.
Simon –
V1 is slightly better but V2 has better and healthier ingredients (diacetyl free), so if you want a kick arse custard that doesn’t have include diacetyl, then V2 is an absolute must! 5/5 best custard!
James –
Solid vanilla custard taste, never tried v1 so can’t compare but this stuff is good
simonhalltech –
Please get some more in, amazing substitute for V1
beldin74 –
goes beautifully with most fruits / pastry / sweets. does require a full 2-week steep as flavour develops significantly even after 10 days and more. this v2 is the diacetyl etc free version
stelios.no.mercy –
im a V1 fan but i have to admit that this custard is great as well!!
Ben –
Great Custard, Shame about the nasties in it. Must let steep!
Laura –
I needed to leave this to steep for at least six weeks had very little flavour before but after six weeks tasted the same as version 1.
Brian –
Great taste with bluberry.
Jeremy –
Ordered Fri afternoon at 1400, received delivery Sat morning in Scotland! Batch of Mothers Milk made by lunch time and now steeping…can’t wait to try.
Timurs –
what a treat, really liked it mixed with some NY Cheesecake (may be too sweet for some), and it was a very tasty vape 🙂
alex_bbb123 –
not quite as good as v1 but still very good.
Gail –
Not bad but v1 is better
good4baker –
vanilla is way to strong i mean to the point of its all i can taste ,no matter how long i steep not bad tho ,i will try v1 as every one says its better. mixed at 10%
adammcquade_82 –

Giovanni Pasta –
Great flavours and the fastest turnaround time ever, Ordered at 15:00 and Del at 12:00 the next day.

matthew –
Great taste, goes well with most other flavours. I used 7% vanilla custard with 3% sweet cookie and a touch of ethyl Maltol great flavours from capable and speedy delivery
Paul –
Creamy custard!
what more can I say
billalsaeed2 –
Loved it, eventually went for the V1 but the V2 is for you if you’re not bothered by diacetyl etc, perfect for custards, would never buy one from any other company other than Capella
Sasa –
What are you doing with 10 and more %??? I’m full of flavor and taste with about 4% and maybe 5-7 days of steeping… Kayfun/Nemesis 1.5 ohm 12W. Are you on 100% VG or what?
RORY –
A great vape, always steep for a week.
Rosemarie –
Always use capella custard. Best there is. Mix at 12% & steep for as long as you can but at least a week
Ray –
I’ve brought bout this V2 as well as the V1. Have to say that I much prefer the V1. I mix it at 16% & it’s spot on for me. The V2 so far I have gone up to 20% & it’s still not as nice in my opinion as the V1
Jamie –
The flavour of this is awesome ! The service from this company is second to none have never been disappointed
Ian –
V2 isn’t the best, v1 is by far the best custard. It’s ok to add to other flavours for a hint of custard in the background but I wouldn’t recommend as a main flavour.
nelitko –
can smell it without even opening the bottle, just wanna eat it……mix it with a bit of vanilla and strawberry and its to die for
ckennan84 –
not tried version 1 but version 2 is really good best to leave for at least 3 weeks before vaping if u can resist the temptation
justin –

Elliot –
Cant fault it vanilla custard, yum yum! perfecto.
Iv tried mixing up this adding other vanillas etc, but none taste as good as this on its own, if its not broken don’t fix it, it tastes great
Garry –
