** rasanya masih byk variasi rasa yg bisa dicoba... misalnya Lemon BCF, pake resep Orange BCF tapi semua yg berhubungan dgn orange diganti dgn lemon, atau Lime BCF-orangenya diganti lime ... atau Mint BCF pake resep original di atas, tapi vanillanya diganti mint extract or essense dan diberi sedikit warna hijau. Menarik kan?
