I was never much of a Twinkie girl (I prefer the chocolately swirl of the Ho Ho) but if you've ever tasted one and thought you could do the Twinkie folks one better, now you can. The Bakers Catalog sells a set that includes a filled cake pan and a decorating set for injecting the filling and adding the frosting. The quest to replicate the prefabricated flavor of the snack cake in your home is not quite so easy. A recipe for the filling can be found on Top Secret Recipes (it uses marshmallow creme as the key ingredient) and another version can be found here. The exterior can probably be replicated with any decent sponge cake recipe. Of course they won't have the ridiculously long shelf life of the orginal. [via AZ Central]
