Hostess®, creator of The Original Squiggle® and baker of America's most iconic snack cakes, is raising the flavor stakes this month with the help of their recently launched Strawberry CupCakes. The sweet new variety bursting with fruit flavor will be part of the brand's CupCake Jackpot promotion, which offers consumers the chance to win a grand prize of $10,000 as well as more than 300 daily prizes, including cash, a one-year supply of Hostess® CupCakes, Hostess® prize packs, and Flip Video™ cameras with customized squiggle skins.

By registering game codes printed on the back of specially marked multipacks of Hostess® CupCakes at www.hostesscakes.com, consumers can "spin" the online CupCake Flavor Wheel for a chance at a $10,000 grand prize or one of over 300 daily prizes. Additionally, consumers can show their support for their favorite CupCake flavors by voting in an online poll on www.hostesscakes.com.
