I bought a new 6oz Paragon theater pop on craigslist recently. Great machine and great price! I'd not use the portioned out mixes. The oil in it isn't as good as 100% pure coconut oil. I'd get that at costco, comes in a big jar. For flavor, I'd use a very minor butter or flavocal in the mix. Then have flavored shakers for your guests to use. The most popular with mine is white cheddar, or just plain. They love the straight coconut oil taste.
