This Discontinued Little Debbie Snack Was A Fruity Favorite That Fans Want Back - Tasting Table

"Small yet mighty, snack cakes are a great way to take a bite out of nostalgia. For those who grew up loving Little Debbie's sweet treats, there are many old favorites that still grace grocery store shelves today, while others may have sadly disappeared for good. Of the many discontinued Little Debbie snack cakes that need to make a comeback, Banana Twins were a delight of tropical, fluffy, and creamy goodness that fans still enthusiastically adore."

"With a taste and texture resemblant of the original version of Twinkies, Little Debbie Banana Twins were two-packs of rectangular, banana-flavored cakes sandwiched on either side of a creamy filling. These snacks were discontinued around 2022, as Little Debbie confirmed in a Facebook comment that the Banana Twins' sales were not high enough to keep them in stores. Despite these claims, fan fervor for the fruity cakes would suggest otherwise."

"There are a great deal of Little Debbie cakes people would love to see return to the permanent lineup, including Boston Creme Rolls and Spice Cakes. If you've got a hankering for a Little Debbie banana treat, you can always get by with its Banana Marshmallow Pies in the meantime; however, the consistency and flavors will be decidedly different. For those who want to try recreating the discontinued Banana Twins, the internet is rich with copycat recipes and recommendations for Little Debbie dupes"

Little Debbie Banana Twins were rectangular, banana-flavored twin cakes with a creamy filling and a texture likened to the original Twinkies. The product was discontinued around 2022 after the company stated sales were insufficient to continue stocking them. Fans responded with enthusiastic comments on Reddit and launched a petition calling for the treats' return. Banana Marshmallow Pies remain available as a banana option but differ noticeably in consistency and flavor. Numerous copycat recipes and duplicated formulations circulate online for those aiming to recreate the discontinued Banana Twins at home, often using banana extract for flavor.
