I've liked Twinkies, well, forever. It is sponge cake goodness.
Then I went to Canada. There, Mare, a new friend, provided me with "Loony Moons!" (actually 1/2 Lunes (French) or 1/2 Moons (English)) in a very thoughtful 'Canada Starter Pack' she created. Thanx again, Mare.
I am now hooked. That first batch had caramel flavor in them, and were quite good. Later, at Christmas, M got me some that were "plain" -- very similar to a Twinkie. The difference is that they have more of the creamy filling than an actual Twinkie and the cake is a bit softer. Yum!
M made sure to bring some more with her when she visited last month. I write this because I managed to hold out until today on eating the last remaining Loony Moon from that box.
I've been told that there are chocolate and other flavors available for my enjoyment. I cannot wait to return to Canada to try some more!
well, then, i'll be sure to lay on a care package for you. :) i'll see what i can track down - they have some different ones in quebec, i hear.
ReplyDeleteFer the locals... Champlain Heights Irving has Little Debbie's and assorted cakes like the loony moons for less than the normal stores.
