I have been wanting to take some Twinkies and decorate them as Minions for a few months now, but well… life has gotten in the way. That may have to change quickly, though, because look at this fun contest that Hostess is running:
Hostess and Universal Studios Celebrate the Despicable Me 2 release on Blu-ray, DVD and Digital HD with The Twinkie Minion Makeover Sweepstakes! The Limited Edition Minion Makeover Packaging hits shelves as the holiday season gets underway.
Hostess is inviting fans across the country to kick up their creativity and dress up their favorite golden, crème-filled treats and “Minion-ize” their Twinkies for the chance to win great prizes. Now through January 5, 2014, Hostess lovers can make the season a little brighter by visiting https://www.facebook.com/Hostess and https://www.Facebook.com/Hostess/app_170621563134175 to download a collection of Minion accessories, and make their own Twinkie Minion. Fans can then upload pictures of their creations to enter to win a daily instant prize, which includes a Despicable Me 2 Blu-ray™ and special offers from Hostess, or the grand prize, which includes a Home Theater System, a collection of 30 Blu-rays and a year’s supply of Hostess treats.
The downloads they have that you can cut out to dress up your Twinkies are really cute! My kids loved Despicable Me 2 and can’t wait to see it again. Who knows, maybe it’ll end up under our Christmas tree this year. Were you bummed when Twinkies disappeared? Are you glad they’re back? Have you seen Despicable Me 2 yet?
