If baking is not in your skillset, the new [Little Debbie](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/little-debbie-be-my-valentine) Mother’s Day Cakes have you covered. With these pre-packaged cakes on hand, you can still serve up some cake without making a mess in the kitchen.

The new Little Debbie Mother’s Day Cakes are a seasonal version of the classic snack cakes. Each individually wrapped portion consists of a finger cake layered with a creme filling and covered with white icing. There's a Strawberry version made with strawberry-flavored cake and a pink icing drizzle, and a Lemon version made with lemon-flavored cake and a yellow icing drizzle. Both flavors of the snack cakes are limited-edition so you'll want to scoop them up before [Mother's Day](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/happy-mothers-day-chocolate-collection-box) is over.
