Seeing as the Hostess factory closed I am happy I put a few boxes of these treats in my freezer. I am lucky in that a cupcake bakery not too far away from me makes the Hostess cupcake knockoffs. I will have a place to go when I run out of the orginals and I don't feel like baking. The bakery won the Cupcake Challenge on the FoodTV network a few years ago, and their version of this chocolate cupcake is very close and quite good, I think maybe even better than the original.
