Marleigha Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Hello everyone! I just found this group about a month ago and have been reading quite a few posts. It's so great that you all are so helpful and kind to one another! I feel blessed to have found this group! I've been searching high and low for the best birthday cake FO. I have heard good things about the following: Just Scent Rustic Escentuals The Flaming Candle Please let me know what one you all think is the strongest best smelling birthday cake. Thanks so much! ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barbara AL Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Yes Rustic Escentuals Birthday Cake from KY I second that one 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marleigha Posted September 8, 2017 Author Share Posted September 8, 2017 Thank you Trappeur! I appreciate your response. I was so worried when I first posted that I wasn't making the post in the right place. So glad to see I did it properly. I'm actually looking for a few bakery scents and also a good pink sugar.... Of course the birthday cake and then Lemon Pound Cake, Strawberry Cake, and maybe a nice creamy coffee fragrance oil. Not a plain coffee... a nice creamy coffe of some kind. Perhaps vanilla, hazelnut or something. Any suggestions on those? Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the KY birthday cake from RE.... Is it mainly white cake or is it a lot of frosting also? I'm getting ready to order from JS, RE, and TFC, so I'm really happy that I've already received a few responses. Fingers crossed they keep on coming. ??

Marleigha Posted September 8, 2017 Author Share Posted September 8, 2017 Hi Trappeur! I am using my own parasoy blend (464/paraffin) i do have 2 of the 4 from CS that you mentioned. (Hansel & Gretels House & Banana Nut Bread). I did have my eye on snickerdoodle and hazelnut coffee but haven't ordered from them again yet. I will be placing an order from RE, JS & TFC this coming week sometime... Are there any favorites from each of those places that you couldn't be without? I've tried several lavenders and can't seem to find one with a good throw! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love coffee and ice cream Candle Science has a good lemon pound cake. I'm not sure if I've ever tried JS lemon pound cake but right now you can get a sample cheap. Hope this helps! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are actually the reason I started looking for good coffee ones in the first place. ? So out of the JS coffee ice cream or FC Irish cream coffee what one do you think smells then best? So then out of the RE KY Birtbday Cake and the JS Birthday Cake what one has the best smell with the strongest scent throw? So excited! Here are the ones from JS that is in my cart right now. Do you agree with these choices for strong scent throw? Strawberry white Cake Coffee Ice cream Cherry Slushie Cantaloupe Birthday Cake Pink Sugar Golden Sands Cotton Candy Frosting Blonde Moment Those are all the 16 oz size. I would like to try a few others in the 1 oz since they are only $1.50 until the 10th. ? Ohhhhh.... I almost forgot! Have you tried their Ice Cream Scoop Bread? If so... what are your thoughts on it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coffee Ice Cream is a great thrower and I love the smell of it. I haven't put Flaming's irish cream coffee in wax yet but it does smell good OOB. I would probably go with Coffee Ice Cream though. I actually don't like the smell of KY birthday cake. I do like the one that's labeled a best seller even though it has the least amount of feedback. To my nose, the birthday cake from RE and JS smell very similar. On your list from JS I love strawberry white cake, Blonde Moment, Cotton Candy frosting (a little light to my nose but good), cherrie slushy, and I think I've smelled a sample of Pink sugar and it was good. I don't think you can go wrong with any of the ones you have picked out. I do have her Ice Cream Scoop bread and it does smell good. I would say it's a light to medium thrower. I'm glad I inspired you to try coffee scents! LOL! You'll love the ones you're thinking about getting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trappeur Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Talking about ice cream .....ok, my most favorite fragrance in the world right now is Summer Scoop from Flaming. It is a bomb in 464. I have 4 candles going right now....the scent lingers when put out and I walk through the house without even a lit candle and I smell it all the time...love it so much!

Is there anyone else that sells an Ice Cream Scoop Bread? I thought that one would be a good grab for mixing. Now for the Cotton Candy Frosting I heard it was strong. Do you think I'd better off getting cotton candy super strong? What one of those smells stronger? Then Pink Sugar, may I ask where you typically like Pink Sugar from the best? And then lastly, do you have favorites from ICS OR FB as well? Thanks so much for your help! Truly appreciated! ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then lastly, do you have favorites from ICS OR FB as well? Thanks so much for your help! Truly appreciated! ? I personally use pink sugar from NG but every pink sugar I've ever bought smells pretty much the same to me OOB. That's not to say they're all the same strength, depth etc but that's just to my nose. I've read on here where people rave about pink sugar from ICS. I like the one from NG but wouldn't have a problem buying it from another supplier when I run out. I've learned that opinions on the strength of a certain scent can be so broad. Many times I've given wax to someone with me thinking the FO was a dud and then they would talk about how strong the scent was. Noses are so subjective. ICS does have one they call ice cream scoop bread and they smell a little different to me. I honestly couldn't tell you which one I like the best though but they both seem to be popular.Sorry, I'm not much help there. Cotton candy super strong is a good CC and I"ll go in my wax room today and sniff those two and see if I can tell which one might have the strongest OOB scent. I haven't melted either one in so long I can't remember. Favorites from FB: Mulberry-best I've found Birthday Cake-smells like the one from JS to me Blackberry Jam butter cookies-so far this FO smells the same from all the suppliers I've bought from Blonde Moment- same one from JS maple syrup-smells like brown sugar from Daystar Cinnamon sugared doughnut Circus Concession Fizzy pop soda Fruit Loops Harvest Gathering Mango Peach salsa Mint Chocolate Chip Orange chiffon cake-this has been good from every supplier I've bought from Pear berry Pink Sands Pumpkin Pie perfection Pumpkin spiced cheesecake Pumpkin sugared doughnut Salted Caramel Spiced apples and peaches Spiced pumpkin cider Sugar cookie Sugar Cookie Royale Sweet cinnamon pumpkin Tea and cakes Tis the season-smells the same as RE's Vanilla pumpkin marshmallow-these all smell equally good to me except the one from JS. IT wasn't good at all! Warm welcome I have tons of samples but haven't put them in wax yet. ICS Apple brown betty Baked apples Banana caramel cupcake Banana crepes Bananas foster Be Thankful Bear Claws Black and Blue Blackberry Jam butter cookies-smells the same as FB's and Daystars Blueberry meringue torte Boo berry Brown sugar pecan Butter pecan shortbread Caramel apple bake Caramel drizzled marshmallow Caramel nut cluster Caramelized pralines Chocolate cream pie Christmas Kitchen Cinnamon Buns Cranberry orange spice Fall festival Flap jacks Frosted sugar cookie-same and JS buttercream sugar cookie Funnel cake Fruity pebbles Hansel and Gretel's house-this is another one that pretty much smells the same from every supplier to me Pumpkin Harvest Lemon Meringue Orange Bliss Orange Caramel cake Orange chiffon cake orange cranberry muffins orange juice cake Pumpkins and pralines-I don't care for this one but a lot of people do Serendipity-smells just like the one from JS to my nose Spiced Oranges Strawberry White cake-smells almost identical to the one from JS. Both are good Sugar Cookie Dough Sugared Spruce Tropical Fruits White cake Wildberry Mousse Winter berry zucchini bread I have more from ICS but I haven't used them yet.

Marleigha Posted September 19, 2017 Author Share Posted September 19, 2017 Wow! First and foremost, THANK YOU for all of your help! You have tried so many FO's from many suppliers! So great that you have such a large amount of knowledge with them! Do you keep a log so you know what ones you have or haven't tried also? Is there a for sale area on this forum that ladies destash stuff? That would be great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
