They usually come in boxes of 10 but that can be a little much for most people, if you haven’t tried them you can get a single Twinkie Cake from by adding this to your basket. They’re one of the many wonders of the United States of American Candy, Hostess Twinkies are a totally delicious finger of shortcake filled to the brim with the tastiest vanilla cream.
When they were first made, Hostess Twinkies were called ‘Little Shortcake Fingers’ then they changed the name to ‘Twinkie Fingers’ which eventually became ‘Twinkies.’
