In the year 1919, the world was introduced to what is now known as the Hostess CupCake, marking a pivotal moment in the history of snack cakes. Just ask your great grandpappy - he was there. Six years later, Continental Baking sought to expand their product line by adding a new range of cakes to be sold alongside their popular Wonder bread. This new collection of sweet treats would come to be known as the Hostess brand, giving birth to a beloved American icon.
Continental's sponge cake enterprise struck gold in 1930, when Jimmy Dewar invented the iconic Twinkie. Priced at two for a nickel, the Twinkie's skyrocketing popularity soon made it Hostess' best-selling snack cake. Today, over half a billion Twinkies are produced annually, a testament to their enduring appeal and status as a true American classic.
In the summer of 1995, Interstate Bakeries Corporation acquired Continental Baking Company, solidifying Interstate's position as the largest wholesale baker of freshly delivered bread and cake in the United States. This pivotal move eventually led to Interstate changing its name to Hostess Brands, Inc. in 2009, more closely aligning the company with its most recognizable and beloved product lines.
Fast forward to the present day, and Hostess Brands continues to transform everyday moments into small celebrations with a diverse array of new and classic treats. From the beloved Ding Dongs and Ho Hos to the delectable Donettes, the company's delectable line of snack cake deliciousness is a testament to its enduring legacy.
Hostess' Sweet Rings, for instance, offer a delicious white cake frosted with chocolate - a delectable on-the-go snack for any time of day when the sweet tooth calls. And the company's diverse range of powdered sugar, chocolate frosted, glazed, double chocolate, crunch, and even the newest maple glazed varieties are available in both multipack and single-serve formats, catering to all snacking preferences.
Importantly, Hostess Brands proudly boasts that its products are trans fat free, containing 0g of trans fat. As the creator of America's favorite baked goods, Hostess continues to deliver quality, indulgence, and small moments of celebration with each and every bite.
