The primary taste of Banudding Cake is fruity fried plantain bananas with a hint of creamy smooth pudding, so even though the name sounds a bit misleading, the cake-part comes becomes more prominent as it steeps. It's a delicious banana treat! Vape it after a day, or let it steep to develop delicious nuances! You can add a little caramel or butterscotch to it, if you want to shake it up a bit.
I used the colorless Banana Cream (LA)!
Tried adding Joy (FA) - I liked it better without. I also tried increasing Biscuit (Inawera), but the original was better.
/u/Bonzoo tried this, and thought it was almost exactly like eating platanos maduros (cut up fried plantain bananas) - it only needs a little caramel. I have a version of this steeping with 0.4% Butterscotch (FA)
With 0.4% Butterscotch (FA) it's richer, more earthy - I can see what he meant with fried plantains! It does get a slight perfumey taste.
With 0.4% Caramel (FA) it is delicious!

Had to use TPA Banana Cream and FW Sweet Cream and I'm happy to say I finally found a banana flavored vape that I actually like. I may have to order these two flavors just to see what the difference is. Thanks for posting.
Is there something I can substitute in place of the Biscuit (INAWERA)? I'm allergic to Inawera flavors, don't know what's in there but just can vape their stuff..throat closed down in a few puffs! I've used (CAPS) Apple Pie in a few recipes for the crust flavor, would that work here?
HoneyGram57, There is very little biscuit in it - you could try with Cookie (FA) or Apple Pie (FA) in the same percentage. Feel free to try with Apple Pie (Cap) instead - you might need slightly more of it...
Had to sub the Banana Cream with INW Banana. If this recipe is any better with the Banana Cream I don't know if I could hold it together...this is some killer stuff man! Honestly I'm going to have to get some of that BC and do this one again, Awesome recipe brother.
SthrnMixer - I do think the distinct flavor of Banana Cream (LA) (in my case colorless) plays a central role in this recipe; it would definitely be a different recipe with it subbed! :)
Well I'm going to have to get some of that Banana Cream then, thanks Lars. With the INW Banana I was vaping this like it was my last minute on earth so I can't wait to try it with the right ingredients.
I am going to have to try this. I may sub in Flavorah Custard though because I have yet to try it out. This looks like a very yummy recipe to try it on. Do you have a preference over Butterscotch or Caramel?
Just tried it after a 6 day steep and it is awesome, I am going to try it next with Caramel, and I am thinking of popping in a few drops of FLV Rich Cinnamon to make it a touch more spicy. Really great recipe!
Hello Lars. I am enjoying this site very much thank you. But at least here in Norway @"NDS kjøkkenet", they worn us about LA flavors. They claim they`re not suitable for vaping because it contains oil. But I`m not a chemist ;) . Ha en riktig god natt og sov godt :)
Hey norwegianvaper :) Godt at have nogle skandinaver her :)
Some LorAnn-flavorings contain oil, some contain artificial coloring (Banana Cream contains "Yellow 5", but I am using the colorless version). Check this sheet out: http://bestvaporflavors.com/best-lorann-oils-vaping/ - there you can see which should be safe (enough) to vape :) God nat og sov godt! :D
@Lars and @45 CALIBER JUICES`.Thank you for that, this recipe look very tasty. I have to try that out. Stolt av at en skandinav har laget dette flotte nettstedet. :)
@Lars, from my limited experience I know the Cream Fresh is quite strong and usually used at 0.5%... So at 1.5% would be too much? Or will it different percentages give different taste tones?
@Lars, sorry another question as I am still learning, at what percentage would Whipped Cream (TPA) give a similar effect as Fresh Cream (FA), multiply by 3?
Cream Fresh can be used at higher than 0.5% (as you can see) - it will obviously be more "in your face", but in general it will just smooth out a recipe and make it creamier - I've used it at 2% with success.
To me Cream Fresh is much more neutral than Whipped Cream - I would not triple it. In this recipe I would try it at 2-2.5% and add more if necessary (which I doubt)...
Hi again Lars. You gave me an awesome link once, where I could find the banana cream clear and several other brands beside LorAnn's. But I have lost it. Do you remember where it was? It was in EU, I think it was in the UK. The site also had suggestions on what % to start out with the flavors. I need som TFA, FA and INW . Could somebody help me with a link? I am in Scandinavia, so it is often very expensive shipping when buying from US
Sure, they're different, but it's only used to give a hint - that hint could just as well be from Cookie (FA) - You could also leave it out completely.
Just finish my 4 weeks old Banudding ... Wow/amazing juive :-) Lucky me - a new batch is in the "black box" moving forward. @norwegianvaper (min Norske nabo :-)) I need to meintion that FA are cheap in Poland, best offer I have found.
Mixed this October 25th. Had to sub the Inw Biscuit with FA Cookie. It was delicious right from the mix, and now, easy the best banana blend I have ever tasted. Thank you so much Lars. Now I have got the Biscuit and will try to see if there are any differences.Lovely vape.5 stars.
@ jj Hei nabo :) Svensk/Dansk? Thank you for the tip. I will look into that. Yea, this juice is awesome, still have some days before mine is four weeks. Do it get any better?
LARS, you did a great job on this recipe buddy, I tried a bottle I made 2 months ago last night & it's lovely, it's a very fruity banana isn't it, I don't want to say it's a candy banana as that's a wrong interpretation, it's more a really fruity banana front end with a creamy back end, I'm actually digging LA Banana cream big time now lol, as u always taste it right through the vape, I sometimes find TPA banana cream can drop off after a few draws even, anyway you really nailed this recipe and I'm adding it too my daily rotation, I rotate 3 juices each day and normally change them round once a week, but one of the three I keep going a few weeks and feel this is that one for now ha, cheers buddy and thanks again for sharing this awesome recipe with us :-)
I waited 30 days and tried it, wasn't great, waited about two more weeks and WOW I fell in love, added a little mint because I'm a mint freak, just finished off 100 mils, will be mixing up another 100 tomorrow, it's now in my monthly rotation. One of the best yet, a good change. I even added a drop or two of keylime just for fun, really great recipe Lars, thank you
I made this and tried it after 3 days and it was ok. I then waited 3 weeks and now it's very good. it's got just enough sweetness, like a ripe banana and the banana taste is near spot on. The base is full and smooth with a touch of grain from the Biscuit.
The next batch I'll try Banana Cream from TPA. It's a bit fuller and creamier, so it's worth exploring.
reporting back kinda late, I've made 200 mils of this so far, it's great, one of my favorites for sure, wondering how it would be if I bumped the banana up 1% more, it's amazing, thanks good recipe
thanks for sharing, I'm going to try this with you, I made him exacou substituent
I am all the while looking for a good banana flavor with cake / cream backgroundtly as y
I've tried both TFA and LA banana cream and they're equally good. The TFA is a bit creamier, that's all. I also tried with a bit of Caramel. It's ok, but I felt it detracted from the flavor a bit. The recipe as it is works great. It's my #1 ADV for the two weeks. I have 500 ml sitting in the closet as the VC matures.
Great stuff.
I've made almost every single recipe on the first page. This one beats them all. Balls on banana pudding. I added .06g cap sugar cookie to mine just for an extra hint of nilla Wafer and .5% super sweet. This is the best thing I've vaped period. Good job dude.
Change to 6mg and 30/70 .. Awesome flavor after just a quick shake I'm hoping it lasts long enough to see what it's like with at least a few days steep time
Hi Lars I made the first batch smells good. Though I used TPA banana cream since I couldn't La banana cream. Do I need to change the percentage for banana cream.
Lars, I've made this recipe and love it, so do my friends. I want to make more tomorrow but don't have any fresh cream, I have a lot of other creams, I know it won't be the same but what do you suggest? and please don't suggest I buy some fresh cream, lol. I'm in the Philippines, hard to get flavors sometimes.
thanks cstober, actually I found a site that has everything, he he, I have flv cream now too, just got it, haven't used it yet, I have fresh cream now too. this is a great recipe even with a sub or two.
Indeed, this juice really came together after a steep. At first it tasted like runts with custard on the very tail of the exhale, roughly a week later it's a completely different flavor - more natural & sweet banana with a crispy fried taste. Love it!
@ 2 weeks steep i get a smooth creamy banana pudding. I mixed a 60 mil and glad i did going to vape half and steep some more. This recipe is going into my love folder.
Made it as stated and at a loss. Let it steep for a week. Smelling it, all I can smell is banana, vaping it, I can taste everything but banana. What set up is being used? Maybe I am set up wrong.
Yo I just went ahead and cracked her open after only a 10 day steep this stuff is really bomb!! Subbed the LA banana crm for TPA banana crm. Gonna go ahead and throw an order together so I can actually try the original with no sub's. Thank you Lars!
This is delicious. Nicotine river was sold out if LA banana cream so I subbedfor tpa and it came out amazing.really great recipe. Thank you for Sharing it!
I really wanted to like this one the flavor is great but it's a bit harsh to me. I'm using an RDA between 60-80w so maybe that's why? Id like to try this one again any suggestions on how to smooth it out a bit?
I've mostly been vaping this MTL, but when I made it, I did try it on a RTA at ~90w - I don't remember if it was harsh, but I don't think so. I guess you could try lowering the total % to around 11% or maybe add a couple of drops MTS Vape Wizard (or even Smooth). Did you let it steep for a good bit?
You made this back in 2015 and it's still alive and kicking! I made it, I vaped it, I loved it! Nice throat hit, great recipe for lovers of banana vapes, thank you and I copied it, lol. 5 stars.
I love this stuff! I will be making 100 ml's of this as soon as my bottles shipment arrives. Almost through my 30ml I made a week ago. Been trying it each day, and each day it gets better and better. 5 Stars
