Hey kids, I went grocery shopping today and bought all kinds of after school treats. Hostess has so many delicious snack cakes, I couldn’t decide on just one. I ended up buying Cupcakes, Ding Dongs, Zingers, Mini Muffins, and of course your favorite Twinkies! I also found this fabulous sweet and savory Twinkies 85th Anniversary Cookbook!
The Hostess brand has been around for over 100 years, and their most iconic snack cake, the Twinkie, has been a staple of Americana for 85 years. The finger-shaped tasty, yellow sponge cake loaded with a creamy vanilla filling has made its way into most lunchboxes along with movie, TV, book, and other media mediums.

The Twinkies Cookbook takes the most iconic dessert from Hostess and transforms it into culinary delights
I always have some form of Hostess snack cakes on hand. You never know when your sweet tooth will come up with a new craving. Formerly a carnival food staple, you can take Twinkies to the next level in your home by deep frying them. This delicious recipe isn’t overly complicated. Simply freeze the cake, dip the Twinkie into a batter, and deep-fry. The filling actually melts and infuses the sponge cake with the vanilla flavor. It’s delicious!
The Hostess brand is well known and well respected for its flavor and consistency. Dating back to 1919, these delicious snacks are still enjoyed by all ages today due to the quality of their products. Urban legend might say that a Twinkie from 1919 would still be edible if it were opened today! Unfortunately, Twinkies weren’t invented until 1930, and to celebrate the 85th Anniversary of its most iconic product, Hostess released an updated edition of the Twinkies cookbook.
You might think a cookbook revolving around Twinkies would feature only desserts, but this book includes both sweet and savory recipes. The new edition has retained the absolute best recipes from the original cookbook and added twenty-five new tasty ideas. The recipes are equally delicious and wacky! For example, the cookbook includes a recipe for a tasty chicken and waffles filled with Twinkies. Or, just in time for Thanksgiving, try out a Twinkie pumpkin pie!
Once you purchase this cookbook, you will no longer think of Twinkies as just a quick snack. Take your favorite childhood snack, and transform it into so much more!
