I've never been a fan of Twinkies, but Hostess chocolate cupcakes (frosted! with creamy filling!) have always been one of my guilty pleasures.
If they can bail out those greedy investment banks -- "Too big to fail", they said, then they can bail out this fine company that wants nothing more than to bring us oral pleasure:
"Too sweet to fail!"

In my route sales days,my good friend on the route was the Hostess driver.We would trade goodies,I worked for Frito-Lay.Really enjoyed the raspberry filled powder donuts,yummm.
Hope they get it settled.My cynical self says the company wants to get rid of the union,than open a union free shop.IMO.
Keep the Twinkies coming.

I don't know if there is another "nutritional"replacement.Actually don't eat them myself,but I am sure the "twinkie"void will be filled.You guys remember, years ago, the rumor about a toilet paper shortage? I think Johnny Carson had something to do with that one. Twinkies might be gone but I suspect another industrial giant will come up with a great "nutritional" replacement. That will be my defense tactic on this one.

Golden “Twinkie” Cake:
2 cup all-purpose flour
3 tsp. baking powder
¼ tsp. salt
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 cup whole milk
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Spray molds/pan with non-stick spray.
Sift together flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl and set aside.
In a large bowl, beat together butter and sugar at medium-high speed until pale and fluffy. Next, beat in the eggs one at a time, beating for 1 minute in between each addition. Reduce the mixer speed and add flour mixture alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Add the vanilla and mix until the batter just comes together. Over mixing with make your cake chewy. Makes 12 cakes.

and bake at 350 for 15 minutes, or until the cakes are just a light golden color and a tester inserted in the center of the cakes comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool.
Cream Filling
¼ cup shortening (I prefer Crisco brand)
¼ cup margarine
1 cup sifted powdered or 10x sugar
2 tsp. vanilla
Beat together the shortening and margarine until light and fluffy. Add the powdered sugar in a little at a time and beat on high until peaks form. Add vanilla and beat for one minute. Place in prepared icing tubes for piping into cakes.
To fill the cakes, insert the icing tip – preferably a large star tip – into three points along the flat-side of the cake, about 1/8 of an inch deep. Squeeze lightly until you see the filling begin to ooze out.
