I use almond flavoring, as that is my favorite, but always have to make 1/2 the batch with anise as that is my husbands favorite. At times I've rolled them as soon as they come out of the iron, while still warm and pliable, and filled them with ricotta cheese and orange flavoring, orange peel, and chocolate, and you have cannoli of sorts, good too. I totally need to try this cannoli version at Easter - thanks for the ideas, Claudia. PJH
