I found a boatload at my walmart today. I had resigned to not use them b/c I hadn't seen them locally and didn't want to drive into Dallas. Imagine my shock and awe when I saw 14 or more flavors on an endcap in WallyWorld, of all places??!!?!?!?!!? icon_eek.gif

That happened to me a couple of years ago, when they took out the old fabric/crafts section to convert the store to it's new look. Each 2-pack was marked down to 25 cents per, so I grabbed them all.

I discovered them at a Wal-Mart near-ish to L.A. They have them 2 drams for $2.00. But then I looked at the price of them at my local cake supply store, and they have a 2 dram bottle for 1.69. First time I've EVER found something cheaper at the specialty cake store!

Grandmaruth - sure you can use these in both melted chocolate and frosting. Since they are not water-based or alcohol-based you can use them in melted chocolate, candy melts or almond bark - oils don't cause seizing of the chocolate. In frosting, just remember that these are more potent than extracts - I added a couple of eyedroppers-full to 3-4 cups of icing for a great peppermint icing for chocolate cupcakes. I also use several drops of the almond oil to perk up the taste of my fondant - both commercially bought and my homemade MFF.

They are on an endcap in the craft section at mine. Though I've only seen them at the Super Walmart here. I've looked at the regular Walmart and have never found them.
