I want Twinkies…I hear about them but have never seen one. If I had some Id copy your cake, it is very cute.
We dont have Twinkies in Australia, but I really wish I could taste one. I wonder if they taste like I imagine them and if they have the texture I imagine..hmmm
Happy Kansas day…Kansas is the first American state I knew…from Wizard of Oz when I was a child

Great Idea! I work in a Special Ed Preschool classroom and I am always looking for new and fun ideas to do with my preschoolers. I will definitely use this idea. However I would make a slight change, instead of using the full Twinkie I would cut it in half and use ½ of the Twinkie. This way I can make two cakes. I have an A.M. session (18 students) and a P.M. session (23 students) doing this will save me some money and I think it will still look great. Thanks for the great idea!

I was so relieved to find your photo of your cake! At the last minute my daughter’s teacher asked me to bring special treats for Kansas Day…..I was a bit panicked. This is awesome. Thank you!!

I was hoping for instructions to make the KS board game you mentioned for my 5th graders!

We always bake a cake at preschool to celebrate Kansas’ birthday but this year we are going to incorporate the Twinkies! Thanks for sharing this cute idea!

Cute cake! For another fun treat, make KS Day Trail Mix: Sunflower seeds, Meadowlark’s nests (cheerios), Buffalo droppings (choc. chips), Cottonwood leaves (Sunny Seed Drops), Yellow Brick Road Bits (Toffee /Heath chunks). Happy 148th, Kansas!

What a fabulous idea. My daughters name is Edelweiss and I had been trying to think of a simple way to make her an Edelweiss cake. I think I might try this and make the center cake a carrot cake with cream cheese frosting and yellow coconut shreds to embelish. It is perfect for her to bring to preschool. Thanks for sharing.
