Instructions: Center: Combine butter, syrup, vanilla, and salt in large mixing bowl. Add powdered sugar; mix together with a fork, then knead with hands. Mixture will be very dry, but softens with kneading. Divide into thirds. Knead on board, blending green color and mint flavoring into one third, red color and cinnamon flavoring into another third and rum flavoring into last third.

Form into rolls 1 inch diameter. Cut rolls in half crosswise to make 6 rolls. Wrap individually in waxed paper and store overnight in freeze or refrigerator.

Caramel Nut Coating: Next day heat caramels and cream in double boiler. Dip chilled rolls into warm caramel mixture, spooning to cover, immediately roll in chopped pecans; wrap in aluminum foil and chill. Store logs in refrigerator until ready to serve. Slice just before serving.
