I looked at the ingredients, but there was nothing really notable, and
yet the smell of them is very strong. It says natural and artificial
flavors, so does anyone know how you would go about getting a similar
smell/taste? I realize that plenty of sugar is needed, and there is a
well-baked aroma too, but there's got to be something else. It doesn't
seem to be vanilla, because I've made similar "treats" with vanilla and
they were very different.

Thanks in advance.
