The snack cakes feature a golden sponge cake that has been filled with a [lemon-flavored creme](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zesty-lemon-eclairs) that features a vibrant pink hue. This makes the snack cakes perfect for enjoyment in the warm weather as an alternative way to enjoy the namesake flavor of [tart lemonade](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lemonade-potato-chips). The Twinkies come in two-count, eight-count and 10-count packages, and have been announced alongside the returning S'mores Cupcakes that feature yellow cupcakes topped with chocolate icing and filled with toasted marshmallow creme.
