Zingers is an American snack cake produced and sold by Dolly Madison and Hostess, snack food brands owned by Hostess Brands[1] and currently owned by private equity firms Apollo Global Management and Metropoulos & Co.
Product line
Zingers are similar to Twinkies and come in devil's food, vanilla, and raspberry flavors.
Chocolate and vanilla Zingers have a thick layer of icing on top with cream (synthetic, not dairy) filling in the middle. Raspberry Zingers do not have icing on top but are instead covered in a mixture of shaved coconut and raspberry flavored syrup.
Marketing
A series of commercials for Zingers used the Peanuts characters,[2] with Snoopy playing the part of the mysterious "Zinger Zapper", the thrust of the ads featuring the other characters attempting to discover his true identity by tempting him with Zingers.
