The most exotic stuff they have is almond, vanilla and peppermint extract.<br /><br />I have to ask - were you making a root beer cake?Sydneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14740877135009167937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320167217139525439.post-41267942068212050702009-06-24T10:09:27.742-05:002009-06-24T10:09:27.742-05:00I remember doing this when I was kid on summer bre...I remember doing this when I was kid on summer break.

I had no idea you could make it yourself. I don't think they sell that kinda stuff @ my local grocery shop.
