About the Kingston Desserts Range
Kingston E-Liquids, the UK manufacturer behind our largest single brand collection, gives dessert vaping the same treatment its other ranges give sweets and menthol: familiar British reference points at a price that invites experimentation. Where most dessert e-liquid lines default to American bakery profiles, half this range comes straight off the British pudding trolley. Jam Roly Poly bottles the school dinner classic, suet sponge and raspberry jam with custard warmth, and Sticky Toffee Pudding delivers exactly the dark, buttery toffee sponge its name promises. Within the wider Kingston E-Liquids collection, this is the shelf for the end of the day.
The other half of the range covers the bakery counter: Custard Glazed Donut and Raspberry Blackcurrant Jam Donut split the filled donut question between custard and jam loyalists, New York Cheesecake brings the dense, cream cheese classic, and Brownies and Cream folds chocolate brownie through soft vanilla cream, the only chocolate profile Kingston makes.
Every bottle is Kingston's standard 100ml shortfill: 100ml of 0mg liquid in a 120ml bottle with headroom for two 10ml nicotine shots, because UK TPD rules cap nicotine containing e-liquid at 10ml per bottle. Two 18mg shots give a 3mg mix, and the 70 percent VG ratio matters more here than anywhere else in the catalogue: dessert profiles ride on warm, dense vapour, and this mix is built to produce it on sub ohm coils.
Dessert liquids are also where budget brands most often cut corners, because convincing custard and pastry notes cost more to compose than simple fruits. Kingston's approach is the opposite of the usual economy: a short list of six done properly rather than twenty thin variations, each anchored on a recognisable named dessert a British customer can immediately audit against memory. That audit is the range's quality bar, and profiles that fail it do not survive in a catalogue this ruthlessly repeat purchase driven.
How to Choose Kingston Desserts Flavours
Six bottles, one price, three courses. Decide whether you want a British pudding, a bakery treat or a creamy classic.
British Pudding Flavours
Best for: nostalgia by the spoonful. Jam Roly Poly is the range's signature and one of the few e-liquids anywhere to attempt the school dinner classic: jammy sponge with a custard finish. Sticky Toffee Pudding is darker and richer, all buttery toffee and warm sponge, the range's deepest flavour.
Bakery Flavours
Best for: donut devotion. Custard Glazed Donut pairs vanilla custard with a sweet glazed dough note, while Raspberry Blackcurrant Jam Donut fills the same dough with sharp double berry jam, the fruitiest bottle on this shelf and the natural pick if you are arriving from a fruit range.
Creamy Classic Flavours
Best for: smooth, rich, slow vaping. New York Cheesecake is dense cream cheese over biscuit base, and Brownies and Cream swirls chocolate brownie through vanilla cream, Kingston's only chocolate liquid.
If these profiles tempt you but feel heavy for all day use, the fudge corner of Kingston Sweets and the Silly Moo Moo Milkshake range offer lighter routes to sweetness. And a shortfill needs nicotine shots if you want nicotine in the final mix.
Ordering within the range rewards a little planning, because these six bottles vary more in weight than any other Kingston shelf's do. Ranked from lightest to heaviest: Raspberry Blackcurrant Jam Donut, Jam Roly Poly, Custard Glazed Donut, New York Cheesecake, Brownies and Cream, Sticky Toffee Pudding. First time dessert vapers who start at the heavy end often wrongly conclude the whole style is not for them, when the jam end would have suited perfectly. Start light, and if the bottle disappears quickly, the next order can afford to go one step richer. Committed dessert vapers can ignore all of this and go straight to the sticky toffee, which is, by some distance, the bottle this range's regulars reorder most.
Which Kingston Desserts E-Liquid Is Right for You?
These four cover the range's spread, from the British signature to the fruit crossover.
If you are new to dessert vaping entirely, start at the jam end: Raspberry Blackcurrant Jam Donut and Jam Roly Poly keep enough fruit sharpness to feel familiar, while Sticky Toffee Pudding and New York Cheesecake are full commitment desserts best appreciated once your palate expects richness. Most dessert vapers end up running a two bottle system anyway, a fruit or menthol for daytime and one of these for the evening, and at £6.50 a bottle that system costs £13 to set up. The Get Fruity range makes the obvious daytime partner.
How to Use a Kingston Desserts 100ml Shortfill
The mix is the standard two minutes, but dessert liquids reward one extra step nothing else in the Kingston catalogue needs: patience.
Step 1: Choose your nicotine shots
Two 10ml 18mg shots from our nicotine shots range give a 3mg mix. One gives roughly 1.5mg; none keeps it nicotine free.
Step 2: Remove the nib and pour
Pull the dripper nib, add the shots, and press it back firmly until it seats flush so nothing leaks.
Step 3: Shake, then rest overnight
Shake hard for at least 60 seconds, then give the bottle a day before judging it. Custard, toffee and cream notes knit together noticeably after resting; a just shaken dessert liquid tastes thinner than it will tomorrow.
Step 4: Fill, prime generously and vape low
Prime fresh coils with extra care, a few drops on the cotton and a ten minute stand, and start at the lower end of your wattage range: rich profiles scorch faster than fruits when pushed hot.
Coil life is the honest trade off of this shelf. Sweetened dessert liquids caramelise on coils faster than any other profile family, so expect to change coils more often than you would on a menthol or plain fruit, and treat a dulling flavour as the early signal. Many dessert vapers dedicate one tank or pod to this range permanently, which also stops toffee and custard notes ghosting into brighter liquids. Spare fitments live in our replacement coils and pods range.
Dessert Shortfills vs Fruit Shortfills: Key Differences Explained
Most vapers weighing this range are choosing between a dessert and another fruit bottle. The two families behave differently in every way that matters day to day.
| Feature | Kingston Desserts | Fruit Shortfills |
| Flavour character | Warm, rich, rounded | Bright, sharp, clean |
| Best time of day | Evening, after meals | All day |
| Steeping benefit | Noticeable, a day or more | Minimal, vape immediately |
| Coil life | Shorter, sweeteners caramelise | Longer |
| Palate fatigue | Richer, sooner | Slower |
| Flavour at low wattage | Holds up well | Can thin out |
| Price here | £6.50 per 100ml | £6.50 per 100ml |
| Best suited for | Treat vaping, dessert replacement | Daily driver liquids |
The practical answer for most people is not either or but both: a fruit for volume, a dessert for pleasure. Because Kingston prices both shelves identically, the two bottle setup costs no premium here, and the contrast keeps each profile tasting fresher than either would alone. If you only buy one, buy the style you would miss more at 9pm.
The comparison also explains a mistake worth avoiding: judging a dessert liquid by fruit liquid standards. A new dessert vaper who expects the immediate brightness of a lemonade will find day one of a cheesecake muted and conclude the bottle is weak, when the profile is simply built on mid and base notes that a day of steeping and a warm coil bring forward. Give the style its own terms, moderate power, a rested bottle, an evening pace, and it repays the patience; rush it like a fruit and it never shows you what you paid for, however little you paid.
Who Should Use Kingston Desserts E-Liquid?
Evening vapers
These profiles are built for the after dinner slot, where richness is a feature and a slower pace suits shorter coil life.
British pudding nostalgics
Jam Roly Poly and Sticky Toffee Pudding are profiles the big international brands simply do not make.
Sweet toothed switchers
Anyone replacing an actual dessert habit gets the taste without the plate, and the 0mg option makes it a pure flavour ritual.
Fruit vapers wanting depth
The jam donut is the gateway: familiar berry sharpness over new bakery warmth.
The range also earns a place with vapers cutting nicotine to zero: a rich dessert profile at 0mg keeps the hand and flavour ritual satisfying in a way a thin 0mg fruit often does not, which is why several of our zero nicotine regulars vape nothing but this shelf.

How Long Does a Kingston Desserts Shortfill Last?
Measured in millilitres, the usual maths applies: a mixed 120ml bottle covers around two to three weeks at a moderate 5ml to 10ml per day, roughly 24 fills of a 5ml tank. In practice dessert bottles often outlast that, because most people vape them as a treat rather than a daily driver: a bottle reserved for evenings can stretch across six weeks or more. These figures are estimates based on average usage conditions and your own pace will vary.
Dessert profiles are the one Kingston family that genuinely improves in the cupboard. The custard, toffee and cream notes deepen over the first days after mixing, and a well stored bottle holds that matured character for months: capped, upright, cool and dark, since heat and light oxidise added nicotine and dull flavour in any liquid. Mix bottles as you open them, check the printed best before date on arrival, and if a bottle tastes thin on day one, give it until the weekend before judging.
Serious dessert vapers take the steeping habit one step further and buy one bottle ahead: mix the next bottle the day you open the current one, so every bottle you actually vape has had two or three weeks of rest. The difference is most audible on New York Cheesecake and Sticky Toffee Pudding, whose deepest notes take the longest to knit, and the habit costs nothing beyond remembering to shake a bottle a fortnight early. It is the closest thing this hobby has to a wine cellar, at £6.50 a bottle.
Buying Kingston Desserts E-Liquid in the UK
UK TPD rules cap nicotine containing e-liquid at 10ml per bottle and 20mg per ml in strength. Kingston Desserts complies by being sold at 0mg: each 100ml bottle is legal precisely because it contains no nicotine at the point of sale. The nicotine shots you add are TPD compliant 10ml bottles, notified to the MHRA as nicotine containing products before sale, with child resistant caps and UK labelling. A finished 120ml at 3mg, which is 0.3 percent nicotine, sits far inside every legal limit. All Kingston stock we sell is genuine UK manufactured liquid, not grey import.
As with all sweet flavoured liquids, there is no sugar or food content here: the pudding profiles come entirely from food grade flavourings, and the liquid is never for consumption. Store every bottle capped and out of reach of children and pets, especially once nicotine shots are mixed in.
Safety & Age Restriction
As with all nicotine containing products, e-liquid mixed with nicotine shots carries a risk of nicotine dependency and may cause irritation for some users. Vaping products are intended for existing adult smokers and vapers and should be used responsibly.
- You must be 18 or over to purchase vaping products from this website
- Nicotine containing e-liquid is capped at 10ml bottles and 20mg per ml under UK TPD rules; these shortfills are sold at 0mg
- Keep all e-liquids out of sight and reach of children and pets
Multi Buy and Kingston Desserts Value Guidance
The base maths matches the whole Kingston catalogue: £6.50 plus two £1 nicotine shots is £8.50 for 120ml of finished 3mg liquid, close to 7p per ml, against £35 to £45 for the same volume in 10ml bottles. Dessert liquids elsewhere run £10 to £15 per 100ml as standard, so this shelf undercuts its own category harder than most. Factor in the treat vaping pattern, where a dessert bottle lasts longer than its millilitres suggest, and cost per week drops further still.
The natural order here is the day and night pair: one dessert plus one bottle from Get Fruity or the Zingberry Range for £13, with four shots from the nicotine shots collection in the same basket. Budget one 18mg shot per 50ml whenever you order.
The steeping habit fits the ordering rhythm neatly: place the reorder when the current bottle reaches its final quarter, and the incoming bottle's rest period is covered by the remaining liquid without a single flavourless day.
Frequently Asked Questions
What flavours are in the Kingston Desserts range?
Six: Jam Roly Poly, Sticky Toffee Pudding, New York Cheesecake, Custard Glazed Donut, Raspberry Blackcurrant Jam Donut and Brownies and Cream, all 100ml shortfills at £6.50, made in the UK.
What does Jam Roly Poly e-liquid taste like?
Kingston's Jam Roly Poly recreates the British school dinner pudding: soft sponge, sweet raspberry jam and a warm custard finish. It is the range's signature and one of very few liquids anywhere to attempt the profile.
Do dessert e-liquids need steeping?
They benefit from it more than any other style. After adding nicotine shots and shaking, give the bottle a day or more: custard, toffee and cream notes knit together with rest, and a just mixed dessert liquid tastes thinner than it will after steeping.
Do dessert liquids wear out coils faster?
Yes. Sweetened dessert profiles caramelise on coils quicker than fruit or menthol liquids, so expect shorter coil life and treat fading flavour as the early warning. Many dessert vapers dedicate one tank to the style permanently.
What nicotine strength is Kingston Desserts e-liquid?
Every bottle is sold at 0mg, which is 0 percent nicotine. Add two 18mg nicotine shots for a 3mg mix, one for roughly 1.5mg, or vape it nicotine free after shaking and steeping.
Are Kingston Desserts shortfills legal in the UK?
Yes. UK TPD rules cap nicotine containing e-liquid at 10ml bottles and 20mg per ml. Shortfills comply by being sold nicotine free in larger bottles, with nicotine added separately via compliant 10ml shots. All stock is UK labelled and sold to adults aged 18 and over only.
How much does Kingston Desserts e-liquid cost?
Every flavour is £6.50 per 100ml shortfill at Hulme Vapes. With two nicotine shots at around £1 each, a finished 120ml of 3mg liquid costs roughly £8.50, near 7p per ml, against £10 to £15 per 100ml for typical dessert shortfills elsewhere.
What devices work best with dessert liquids?
The 70 percent VG mix suits sub ohm tanks and pods with coils below 1.0 ohm. Run rich profiles at the lower end of your coil's wattage range: dessert notes hold up well at modest power and scorch faster than fruits when pushed hot.
Need Help Getting Started with Dessert Shortfills?
If you are unsure whether to start at the jam end or dive straight into sticky toffee, or how long to steep before judging a bottle, our UK based team has vaped the lot: reach us via the contact page and name the pudding you would order in a restaurant, since this range maps onto the dessert menu directly. Practical details worth having ready: your coil resistance, because below 1.0 ohm suits the 70VG mix, your wattage range, since rich profiles prefer the lower end, and your current nicotine strength for the shot count.
And if the six bottle choice still defeats you, our standing recommendation for a first dessert order is Jam Roly Poly plus Custard Glazed Donut: the range's signature beside its most balanced bakery bottle, £13 for a proper tour of what British dessert vaping means before the richer end asks for commitment.
Delivery timings and cut off times for the fast, tracked 24 hour UK service are on the delivery information page. All vaping products on this site are for adults aged 18 and over.

Kingston Desserts is the richest shelf in the family. These are the collections its customers most often pair it with: the milkshakes one door lighter, the fudge corner of the sweets range, the daytime fruit partner, and the shots every order needs.
Kingston's sweet shelves form a ladder of weight, from floss and sweets through milkshakes up to these full puddings, and knowing where you sit on it saves money: most dessert curious vapers find their permanent home one rung below where they first guessed, which is worth remembering before a second heavy order.
