The Drake’s Alpine Yodels snack cakes have been announced by the brand as a companion product to its original Yodel cakes to offer consumers a tasty option for enjoyment as a dessert or a sporadic indulgence. The cakes are achieved with a yellow cake that has been rolled around the brand's classic creme before being dipped in white icing for a more solid exterior. The cakes are prepackaged in pairs in boxes of 10 to make them perfect for packing into lunches or as a snack to keep on hand when heading out of the house.
The Drake’s Alpine Yodels snack cakes are being launched in a variety of retail locations across the Eastern US market including at super centers, supermarkets, convenience stores and value retailers alike.
