As to why Sara Lee is now in the snack cakes business:
As some of you may know, Hostess went into liquidation proceedings earlier this year and their products disappeared off the shelves. The brand (and recipes) was acquired by another company and recently began producing again (the Wallstreet Journal has a good story regarding the fallout). But while they were gone, several other bakery brands introduced their own snack cakes, including Sara Lee.
I really have been wanting to try these snacks
ReplyDeleteI've seen these in the stores, but haven't tried them. My favorite portable desert would probably be an oatmeal cream pie or a Swiss roll.
ReplyDeleteI like to snack on steak. :)
ReplyDeleteIf dessert is involved, it's more like a binge.. less like a snack. It's less like a binge and more like a super binge if anything peanut butter is involved. Thats why, on most occasions, I try ("try" being the operative word) to stay away from dessert!
ReplyDeleteFavorite? Not possible. Favorites? Ahh, now that's more like it!
ReplyDelete-Mountain house Neapolitan Freeze Dried Ice Cream
-Berger Cookies
-Lofthouse Frosted Sugar Cookies (the pink are the best, even if they do all taste the same :p)
-Go lean crunch cereal (I don't care if it's cereal, if you bag it it's an amazing snack!)
-Vanilla Meringue Cookies
-Dark Chocolate Peepsters... only available in the Spring :'c
-Reese's Fastbreak
As you can see, the list could go on forever. I'll save you those troubles though ;) I'd love to expand this list with some free snack goodies! haha :D
Chocolate chip cookies are always the best.
ReplyDeleteI've always been a fan of classic Chips Ahoy cookies. They've released plenty of different varieties to varying degrees of success, but you can never go wrong with the original.
ReplyDeleteHostess cupcakes with the little vanilla swirl and cream filling were always my favorite.
ReplyDeleteThose amazing little cupcakes with the swirl... I could live off those.
ReplyDeleteI really like the strawberry shortcakes from little Debbie. They are so different but really good. Also the zebra cakes would have to be second for me. Thanks for the opportunity to win. God bless you and your site. I check it daily for new reviews. Thanks for everything! :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite portable snack would have to be any of the Poptarts.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite portable dessert has to be seedless grapes--no mess to clean up after eating and it doesn't melt like chocolate on a hot day
ReplyDeleteMy favorite portable dessert are M&Ms.
ReplyDeleteI'll 2nd Devin on the Chips Ahoys... simple, tasty, and not too rich.
ReplyDeleteGolden creme cakes a.k.a. Twinkies... Such a bad thing to eat more than one at a time, but I like it anyway. :P
ReplyDeleteI would have said the Taco Bell cookie sandwich if it had not disappeared so quickly. Long term and usually close in tastiness is probably Little Debbie's chocolate chip creme sandwich. Notice a trend?
ReplyDeleteI like banana nut muffins...
ReplyDeletePudding packs, the s'mores flavor JELLO came out with not too long ago is awesome!
ReplyDeleteI love brownies.
ReplyDeleteDrake Cakes Funnybones! Omg, I love those. I have to have family in Massachusetts send them to me because I live in Indiana and they don't have them anywhere near me.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite are swiss rolls!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is Blondies!
ReplyDeleteI love using Sara Lee pound cake to make fudge cheesecake parfaits in disposable cups for a treat at the park, camping, wherever!
ReplyDeleteI enjoy taking Twinkies with me.
ReplyDeleteAny trail mix is the ultimate portable snack! It's mixed FOR THE TRAIL!
ReplyDeleteOoh, it would have to be the Hostess chocolate cakes with the squiggle and the creamy filling. I've never tried Sara Lee's version but I will definitely have to check it out! :D
ReplyDeleteThanks for the lovely giveaway!
I miss raspberry zingers. They were my very favorite. Make something like those, Sara Lee! But I like the sound of this snack box too...
ReplyDeleteI love love love Little Debbie Nutty Bars!
ReplyDeleteI always liked getting the little fruit pies, whether they were Hostess, Little Debbies, no matter what brand.
ReplyDeleteThe chocolate cupcakes with the creamy center are awesome!
ReplyDeleteThe old fashion chocolate cookie is my favorite :D
ReplyDeletethose pound cake bars look good!!
ReplyDeleteI love cupcakes!
ReplyDeleteI love homemade cookies
ReplyDeleteMy favorite portable dessert is probably a Little Debbie Zebra Cake - just always reminds me of that something special I would find in my lunchbox as a kid. :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite portable dessert is a honey bun - I love those things!
ReplyDeleteI love oatmeal raisin cookies :)
ReplyDeleteAnything Resse's peanut butter!

ReplyDeleteoatmeal raisin cookies all day everyday
ReplyDeleteI love snickers and ice cream. :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite portable dessert are any type of chocolate cookies...especially if it also includes milk!
ReplyDeleteAll desserts are my favorite. Even a slice of pie is portable. I think fair desserts are the best, they are made to be portable ad bad for you.
ReplyDeleteCandy wise, I'd say Reese's Fast Break ... I mean, it's the literal equivalent of crack in candy form.
ReplyDeletePastry wise, I'm fond of a really well made swiss roll or I can never help but not love Pop Tarts (the new chocolate peanut butter ones are unbelievable.)

ReplyDeleteCheese danish are my all time favorite.
