DIY Bourbon Cream Custard Cake #SSMS ejuice recipe

Hi Muth! This looks nice and I'd like to try it but missing a couple of flavors ( WF Flan & WF ABC ). I love RF ABC and was wondering about the WF version; is there a significant difference? TIA!

@NGAHaze Thank you for the acknowledgement and I'm sorry it took so long to reply. I'm assuming the title drew you in because of your fondness of bourbon? The RF is far more smokier than WF. WF is bourbon forward with cream trailing behind. Many people like it in their desserts because it lacks the oak barrel notes of RF. Depending on your preference you can use one or the other. My use of both was a personal experiment. If you choose to use only the WF it can be boosted to 3-3.50% no problem.

This mix could be approached different ways so don't feel the need to restrict yourself. I might replace the Tres Leche with another cake type next time. Since you don't have the Flan try subbing with a Brulee for that caramelized note. INW Custard and Creme Brulee are a classic pair you can't go wrong with, for instance.

No worries at all, thanks for getting back to me. Yes, you are correct. The title caught my eye, specifically the bourbon. :) Hmm, sounds like the WF version would pair nicely with RF given the differences. I'm going to pick it up regardless, I was just curious how much it would affect the outcome if I tried the mix using just RF.

I have both INW Custard and Creme Brulee so I could use one ( or both? ) as a sub for the Flan in the interim until I pick it up too.

Thanks again for your help ... hope all is well with you and yours!

Thank you, NGAHaze, and the same to you. The only way to know is by trying it with just the RF. Let your tastes guide you. If you like Kentucky Bourbon (TPA) try that as well. It's not uncommon to tweak a recipe to your own tastes since we perceive flavors differently sometimes. Think in lines of the Southern dessert, Kentucky Bourbon Cake. Here's something to inspire you:
