I consider myself a mild foodie, I shop at the farmer’s market almost weekly, and I go out of my way to avoid trans fats. 

However, my husband and I were recently in North Carolina visiting family and we went to a local Walmart, walked down the snack aisle and couldn’t resist the Hostess Cupcakes.  I probably hadn’t had one in twenty years.  But I have to admit, it was pretty darn tasty.  That’s why when I saw these pictures I had to post them.

Twinkies bring back a lot of good memories for me because they were my snack of choice in elementary school before my mother unfortunately discovered health food.  So I know if I were at a wedding and someone served me a Twinkie cake, I’d love it.   I’d probably go home, blog about it immediately and call all my friends and say, “You’re not going believe what they served!”  And I promise you, I’d never forget that wedding.

That’s a lot of impact for a cake that costs $60.

If you go to the Hostess website, they’ll even show you how to make one.
