I haven't tried them since they came back, so I don't know what the new ones are like.

All of the cakes are smaller. The SusieQs, which were the last ones back, were especially AWFUL. MUCH smaller, squared off corners, and half the "creme".

The blueberry pies, which had been discontinued before the Hostess failure, remain MIA. The orange cupcakes were smaller, had a slightly drier texture, but the frosting was dead on, and remained tolerable. The Ding Dongs (Big Wheels, King Dons) were dry and "mealy". (Ring Ding Jr.s were always better anyway). The Raspberry Zingers were smaller and a touch drier but otherwise OK.

I don't know if the resuscitated Drakes cakes are any better (the Funny Bones went downhill even before the end). Right now I find that Tastykake makes the best pies where I am (Georgia, no Drakes here). It's just as well, as I am due to go back on my low-carb diet.

Suzie Q's were my favorite.
(That's why they didn't last 3 years in the freezer.)

No use trying them now. The cream was my favorite part of them.
There was never enough to begin with for me.
