Pumpkin Spice Snack Cakes

Hostess is Rolling Out Pumpkin Spice Twinkies This Fall

For the fourth year in a row, Hostess will bring back its coveted Pumpkin Spice Twinkies—much to the delight of fall fanatics with a penchant for nostalgic snacks.

Hostess' Pumpkin Spice Twinkies are part of the brand's 2019 fall lineup, which also includes the new Iced Pumpkin CupCakes and Caramel Crunch Donettes. The Pumpkin Spice Twinkies start with a golden sponge cake on the outside and a pumpkin spice creme filling on the inside. The Pumpkin Spice CupCakes are a bit of an inverse with a pumpkin-flavored cupcake on the outside and a creme filling on the inside.

But don't wait too long to sample these festive fall treats because the seasonal baked goods are only here for fall.
