Best Tasting Chocolate Cupcakes
One of my favorite Hostess treats growing up. Always moist, just the right amount of cream filling and not overly sweet.

Expired by 2 months!!!
Seems like if you don’t know how to count or don’t care, apply at target or shipt. Ordered these cupcakes for delivery August 14 w. Exp date of June 23, 2025. You heard right an entire 2 months. Where is quality controls, supervisors etc? Seems like they are all on planet zero. Had I given these to my kiddos GI issues galore. Thanks Target!

No choclate aftertaste
Choclate taste disappears right away. Unlike Entemanns chocolate cupcakes where aftertaste of choclate lingers for 30 seconds

not what they used to be
Hostess cupcakes are now about half the size they used to be, and are in a pack of 1 instead of 2. It tasted like some bizarre cardboard slime sugar puff–hardly chocolate at all. The cream filling had a strange snot-like consistancy. The icing on top was dry, crumbly, and less than half as thick as it used to be. Left a terrible taste in my mouth. Gross all around. Will never buy again.

Good but watch out for expiration date
I love this but I had to throw the whole box away because it was expire when they brought it out to me and I didn’t notice the expiration date until the next day.

What the heck?
What happened to these? Do I just remember them being better than they really are or do they just suck? Ate one and felt like I ate a brick. HARD PASS.
