You'll see the iconic pink color year-round with limited-edition varieties popping up every so often, too. Through a series of collaborations between Post Consumer Brands and Hostess Brands, three new snack-inspired cereals were introduced to the breakfast aisle in 2019. Meanwhile, line a baking sheet with 3 layers of paper towels and have the powdered sugar ready in a fine-mesh sieve. This new Donettes variant features pink strawberry-flavored cake donuts, coated with thick and creamy icing. Frying the Doughnuts: When oil reaches 365°F, practice maintaining that temperature for a few minutes before beginning to fry.

There's a certain amount of nostalgia associated with these muffins that undeniably adds to their flavor.Ingredients: SUGAR, ENRICHED FLOUR (WHEAT FLOUR, MALTED BARLEY FLOUR, NIACIN, FERROUS SULFATE OR REDUCED IRON, THIAMINE MONONITRATE, RIBOFLAVIN, FOLIC ACID), WATER, PALM OIL, COCONUT, TOASTED COCONUT, CONTAINS 2% OR LESS: SOYBEAN OIL, GLYCERIN, CORN, HONEY, NONFAT DRY MILK, DEFATTED SOY FLOUR, MODIFIED WHEAT STARCH, SODIUM ACID PYROPHOSPHATE, BAKING SODA, SODIUM ALUMINUM PHOSPHATE, EGG YOLK, SALT, PRESERVATIVE (SODIUM PROPIONATE, SORBIC ACID, POTASSIUM SORBATE, NATAMYCIN), DEXTROSE, NATURAL AND ARTIFICIAL FLAVOR, MONO AND DIGLYCERIDES, DEXTRIN, SOY LECITHIN, CITRIC ACID, ENZYMES, KARAYA GUM, GUAR GUM, CELLULOSE GUM, AGAR, ANNATTO AND TURMERIC (COLOR). Nothing satisfies a chocolate cake craving quite like Hostess's CupCakes, which is the best snack the brand has to offer. These are top-tier snacks, with creamy marshmallow filling perfectly balancing out the chocolate cake and fudge topping. The Hostess cereal trio surely attempts to capitalize on America’s love of snack cakes, but the big question on everyone’s mind… what do they taste like?

Crunch - Hostess

We hope these innovative new ways to enjoy some of our most beloved breakfast items help our consumers begin their day on a sweet note. I guess if you want that soft texture, you’ll have to let it soak in some milk for a couple minutes, although, this will probably result in a soggy mess. I personally like the Donettes and Twinkies promo videos much better than this one, but more on that later. With Hostess Frosted Donettes, everyday moments become a tad more special, turning them into mini-celebrations of taste and tradition.

Preparing the Oil: Melt refined coconut oil in a microwave, then pour into a roughly 8- to 10-inch stainless steel pot to a depth of at least 2 inches. Our favorite flavors are powdered and frosted, but you can't go wrong with any option, assuming you have a big sweet tooth. On a similar note, Honey Bun cereal is probably not gluten free either as it contains whole grain oat flour (most likely processed in a facility that also processes wheat) and is not marketed as such.

Powdered - Hostess

Hostess, a brand synonymous with indulgent treats and classic American snacks, brings you their delightful Frosted Donettes. The honey glaze adds a nice stickiness that keeps it tasting fresh and perfectly sweet, even though it's pre-packaged. In yet another attempt to make this cereal appear as if it’s healthy, Post fortified it with lots of vitamins and minerals like zinc oxide and thiamin mononitrate. Making and Shaping the Dough: Combine granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl, then stir in melted butter, vanilla, egg yolks, and Greek yogurt.

They're a little tangy, like the original, but from thick Greek yogurt rather than some mystery additive, with a vibrant color and custardy richness from a couple of egg yolks. One of the newest additions to the Hostess lineup are Crispy Minis, essentially bite-sized wafer cookies with sweet filling and a crunchy topping.
