Heh.. I can help, but it'll take quite a bit of investment in an array of syrups.
Give me a flavor, and I can usually give you a good idea on how to make it. (a skill I discovered that I had working at a starbucks kiosk for a summer.. I even made an Atomic Fire Ball flavored water-based drink.)
As far as caramel apple cider, all you need is apple cider (duh).. or you can use a REALLY good natural apple juice. Simmer it at low heat for awhile to reduce it a bit. Once you have this reduced apple juice (apple cider), use 1-2 oz. of cinnamon syrup and steam it with the juice. Voila. Add caramel SAUCE on top. Whipped cream if you so desire, and then cararmel on top of that for the *$ recipe.
Snickers bar will require caramel SYRUP, mocha syrup, and just a touch (1/4 oz. or so) of almond syrup. Syrups first, then add espresso and swirl to mix, then add frothed milk. Enjoy.
