Making Mealtime Meaningful: Discover how we're giving back with the 12T Cares program →

It should go without saying but the Hostess Twinkie is one of the more iconic snacks in existence. We cannot fathom what it is like not to enjoy one. They’re a timeless classic for a reason.

Wal-Mart knows how much we love them and now they are providing us with the chance to enjoy a Twinkie for the ages. You’ll now have the chance to appreciate this snack on a whole new level.

The Twinkies baking kit is on hand at your local Wal-Mart and you can also place an online order if your location is out of stock.

Each kit comes with its own Twinkie-shaped baking pan, cake mix, cream filling mix, and instructions on how to handle the recipe. They have truly thought of everything and we love them for that.

Now, you’ll have the opportunity to recreate this classic recipe in your very own kitchen. There are a few things that you are going to have to add to the equation, so be sure to add them to your stockpiles. Those who are preparing these Twinkies must also grab some vegetable oil, eggs, water, and heavy cream in addition to the baking kit. However, this is not the Twinkie that you are used to eating.

The baking pan is oversized so that you are able to create your very own party-sized snack. That’s right, you’ll now be able to enjoy one of the most luxurious Twinkie experiences possible. The massive Twinkie can then be sliced into 12 pieces and distributed among your friends and loved ones. Doesn’t this sound like the perfect holiday treat?

We are already thinking long and hard about all of the flourishes that we are going to add. In fact, it would be nice to keep one of these kits on hand because there is no shortage of special occasions throughout the year.

It’s been a long and hectic year and that is why we deserve the opportunity to enjoy the largest Twinkie that we can possibly find.
