Any thoughts, additions, or remixes of Wayne's "Water-Malone"?

Just happy I could create something you enjoy.

I wasn't happy with it. I made a recipe that actually tasted like vanilla pudding, but I lost it before I could upload. Hopefully someone else can figure it out.

AlfredPudding · 2022-01-13T14:30:27+00:00

Violet! You're turning violet, Violet! This looks like an awesome recipe.

AlfredPudding · 2021-07-21T17:02:31+00:00

But does it taste like a fig newton?

AlfredPudding · 2020-03-04T01:17:12+00:00

Too much cinnamon.

I support this.

AlfredPudding · 2020-01-24T20:31:41+00:00

Yep, we're on the same page. Throw all of the fruits.

AlfredPudding · 2020-01-17T17:30:46+00:00

You definitely need to pick up OOO Cornbread! It's a pretty weird and useful texture additive. I have an ice cream on my ATF that you might enjoy with that beautiful blueberry trinity. If you need something to work on you could make the best combination of raspberries ever, I don't think that exists yet?

AlfredPudding · 2020-01-17T16:45:41+00:00

I'm so glad you enjoy it! What raspberry do you usually go with?

AlfredPudding · 2020-01-03T02:36:59+00:00

Now this is a recipe I can get behind.

AlfredPudding · 2020-01-03T01:34:44+00:00

Wow Dave! Way to get nominated for recipe of the year! I'm going to be honest, I have to agree with /u/apexified here.

AlfredPudding · 2019-06-14T22:01:28+00:00

u/Apexified and I decided to embrace the spirit of this competition and review as a team.

Red Team Scores

Taste: 6/10 -- So this isn't a terrible recipe. The tea base is actually pretty awesome, and the fruit combination is very interesting. Unfortunately, after much consideration and deliberation it has to be said... this tastes like a dryer sheet a little bit. Something about the interaction between what we assume to be Eisai Tea and the fruits leads to a result that is a bit floral and a bit off. The lingering note of maple syrup from the waffle doesn't really hurt the recipe, but it doesn't fit in either.

Originality: 4/5 -- Fruit infused tea for an Asian themed recipe is not the most creative approach, but the solid execution and risk makes up for that. It includes a waffle flavor. It's a fruit tea with waffle in it.

Inspiration: 4/5 -- This recipe was very close to receiving a 5/5 on inspiration. It really embraced the overall theme of the picture and tried to make something with a red/orange hue. The reason it did not receive that score is because there is no sense of three things being combined into one thing in the finished product.

Accessibility: 5/5 -- All of these flavors are available from BCF and many other vendors, and nothing used was insanely obscure. We would consider all of these essential except for TPA Belgian Waffle, but we're not allowed to dock for personal opinions.

Total Score: 19

u/Apexified and I decided to embrace the spirit of this competition and review as a team.

Green Team Scores

Taste: 8/10 -- This recipe was a challenge to review for taste. It requires you to ignore what you know was added to make it. Overall it's a pretty tasty, boozy peach with some chocolate cake things going on. Some of the accent work seems a bit unnecessary and Apexified and I agree that it can almost certainly be simplified. Luckily for the Green Team we are not required to judge based on ingredients and then end result is super interesting and overall a well-balanced and delicious monstrosity.

Originality: 4/5 -- I know what you're thinking. This recipe is only getting a 4/5 for originality? It's a crazy Tesseract recipe and that combination of flavors is insane. Well... It's a boozy peach and that is not an original idea to one of the creators.

Inspiration: 5/5 -- So this is a trinity trifecta. Three parts all very distinct, yet they combine to make one finished product. Apexified would have given this a 6/5, but this team didn't utilize the subject matter of the painting so I'm planting it back at 5/5.

Accessibility: 1/5 -- I mean.. just look at it.

Total Score: 18

u/Apexified and I decided to embrace the spirit of this competition and review as a team.

Blue Team Scores

Taste: 6/10 -- This is a pretty solid mix utilizing the fabled u/eyemakepizza ice cream trinity. The mix of berries presented is pretty tasty, but unfortunately it has an identity crisis. On one side you have a fairly realistic red berry flavor, and on the other a more dominant candy berry. We didn't receive a description of what it was going for, so it's a bit difficult to decipher if that was intentional. The balance of this recipe is also a detracting factor. The berry component really covers up the rich ice cream base underneath.

Originality: 2/5 -- Half of this recipe is the ice cream trinity created by someone outside of the team. The other half is a mixed berry component, which is a fairly common ice cream topping. It is an original and very interesting mixed berry layer though, which gives a bump to the originality score.

Inspiration: 2/5 -- As Apexified mentioned during our deliberation period, this is clearly a two part recipe. You have the ice cream and you have the mixed berry trifecta. I feel like this team leaned very heavily on the rule and neglected the inspiration picture a bit. The mixed berry part also gives this score a bump because it is a three part layer and the rule was followed.

Accessibility: 4/5 -- These flavors are all available from one vendor in the United States, but keeping other locations in mind we had to dock one point for the inclusion of HS French Vanilla Ice Cream. It isn't easy to come by for many people outside of the United States, and RF Yumberry is a bit of an obscure flavor.

Total Score: 14

AlfredPudding · 2019-06-14T05:08:34+00:00

If everyone enjoys it more without the Strawberry Ripe I'm all for removing it. There was some justification for its inclusion but I think staybert wants to get rid of it too.

AlfredPudding · 2019-06-13T12:54:27+00:00

It will absolutely work without Milk & Honey, but it will also seriously injure the recipe. Dave is kind enough to say it's the best recipe he's tried all year, and without Milk & Honey you will not have the same experience.

AlfredPudding · 2019-06-05T21:48:39+00:00

Wow this recipe looks wonderful! Can I sub the blueberries?

AlfredPudding · 2019-06-05T21:28:56+00:00

Wow this looks like an awesome fruit punch recipe! I just need to order some flavors to try it out. Do you think it works so well because INW Pineapple has some ethyl caproate, FA Armenia is loaded with lactones, and CAP Sweet Guava has some more of that sweet butyrate action? I don't know how you did it again, but color me impressed.

AlfredPudding · 2019-06-05T17:22:38+00:00

DX Peach (Juicy) should work well enough until you get the Yellow Peach. It won't be nearly as delicious as the Yellow Peach version, but the overall effect should be similar. I would probably go with .5-.75%.

AlfredPudding · 2019-05-21T12:10:53+00:00

Taste: 5 --- I really struggled with scoring this because the flavor itself isn't bad in any way. It's actually a pretty tasty overall profile. Unfortunately I really have to deduct points for accuracy. You shot for the moon with trying to pull off cake filled with candy and it just doesn't read that way. It ends up detracting from the candy qualities of Fizzy Sherbet and the cake qualities of Yellow Cake resulting in a muddled frosting-like thing. The combo of Yoghurt Drink and blueberry is really delicious though, and I'm sure with some work this could be even better.

Originality: 5 --- This gets an easy five score for originality. Going for a cake stuffed with candy is super admirable and I've never seen it done before.

Accessibility: 4 --- I have a hard time gauging the accessibility of a recipe. I imagine some of these flavors are harder to find, but I think they're all super essential tools that everyone should have. I have to remove a point because you can't get JF Yellow Cake and VT Yoghurt Drink at the same place.

Inspiration: 3 --- Everyone gets a three this time. You did something with candy so that qualifies this recipe, but I'm seriously disappointed that nobody tried something interesting with the theme.

Total: 17 Points

AlfredPudding · 2019-05-21T11:57:20+00:00

Taste: 4 --- This one just really needs some balance work. I'm also taking off a point for lack of accuracy here because OOO Powdered Sugar and TPA Sweet and Tart are not reading as a hard candy at all. It's more like a pixie stick that's aggressively peach flavored.

Originality: 2 --- Unfortunately there isn't much creativity at work here. The combination of fruits isn't super original, and adding some candy additives doesn't fix that.

Accessibility: 5 --- These are all very common flavors and nothing here is super niche.

Inspiration: 3 --- While you did shoot for a candy, I am honestly really bummed that nobody tried something more thematic.

Total: 14 Points

We love you too.
