Twinkie Pinkies

***

She couldn't be more nervous-excited.

While Pinkie Pie hopped up and down inside the Sugarcube Corner’s kitchen, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity, and Fluttershy passed through the swinging doors and into the main lobby of the store. Wondering why they were asked by the pink pony to gather at her place, their perplexed curiosities were followed by them looking around the shop and noticing the extravagant displays of positively-pink pastries and sweets, which included sprinkled cupcakes, glazed donuts, and candy canes. As they all smelled the wonderful scents of peppermint, sugar, and a little bit of cinnamon, the aroma of the entire room was interrupted by the odor of freshly baked cake. Meanwhile, with a huge smile on her face, Pinkie Pie emerged from the kitchen and wheeled in a plastic cart that was cloaked over by a white sheet.

Stationing it in the middle of the main party room, Pinkie looked over towards her friends and saw them twitching their noses in the air. “Oh goodie! You’re all here!” she said while clapping her forehooves together.

“Of course we would be here,” replied Twilight, lowering her head to see the cart in front of her. “After all, you’re the one that demanded us to come here in the first place.”

“And i’m so glad you did!” Pinkie Pie was shaking in excitement for reasons unknown to the rest of the group. “Because I have done it!” she exclaimed with a loud ring in her voice.

“Done what?” asked Rainbow Dash, trying to look underneath the sheet by using her left hoof to slightly lift the fabric.

The pink pony slapped Rainbow Dash’s hoof. “Only created the most super-duper-most-AMAZING dessert pastry you will EVER taste!”

“Well, what are they?” asked Twilight.

“What are they?!” Pinkie lifted her fore-hoof to scratch her head. “Hmmm, well some ponies would probably say that they look like thin, small mini-cakes.”

Fluttershy perked her ears. “Ooh! Mini-cakes?”

“Yeah, something like that...” Pinkie Pie wasn't sure if that was true or not. “But, I will say that they are my OWN creation!” She placed both of her forehooves on the cart. “Guys, I give you TWINKIE PINKIES!!!”

Pulling the white sheet off the cart, Pinkie Pie revealed six small pastries that were lined up in two rows of three. While they rested on top of a large paper sheet, glazed and soft to the touch, the pink pony explained that the Twinkie Pinkies’ bright pink cake batter came from the success of a mixture between assortments of sugar, flour, buttermilk, a pinch of salt, and pink food coloring. Then, after dumping the mixture into a “special pan” that was created from a visit to a metal fabricator, she told the others that the pastry’s soft crust came from the batter rising in a oven set to three-hundred and fifty degrees Fahrenheit for twenty minutes.

Pinkie also informed them, “But what makes them soooo delicious is the white cream inside them!”

“Wait… There is paste inside those things?” said Rarity, expressing a surprising delight over hearing that fact.

“Yep,” the party pony replied. “And it’s made from my own SUPER-secret recipe that I worked on for over an ENTIRE month! So go ahead...” Pinkie picked up one of the cakes and gave it to her. “...Try it!”

“Well, alright...”

Rarity then used her magic to float the pastry towards her mouth. Taking a small nibble out of it, she tasted the Twinkies' enriched wheat flour and instantly became flabbergasted by its holy sweetness. With her eyes completely widened, Rarity proceeded to chomp down the entire dessert within seconds. Afterwards, she levitated a handkerchief and wiped the crumbs off her mouth.

Rarity praised her friend's treat. “Why I have never devoured a desert quite as delicious as this one. Pinkie...” She then pointed to the Twinkies that remained on the cart. “...Can I have another-”

Rainbow Dash interrupted her, “Oh no you don’t! You JUST had one…” She then shoved Rarity aside. “Besides, it’s my turn to try one.”

Dash’s last statement annoyed Applejack. “Oh, so when did you decide that we are takin’ turns?”

“Since I said so,” boasted the cyan pony.

Applejack retorted with a smirk, “When?”

Rainbow Dash disputed, “When? Seessh, does that even matter?!” The pegasus then turned and looked over at the cart, where the five remaining tubular goods sat. “Besides...” Rainbow Dash said, “I saw the cart first... So, I’m calling dibs.”

“Dibs?!” shouted Applejack.

“Yep, and you can’t stop me!” Rainbow Dash stuck her tongue out a Applejack.

She became furious by her taunt.

While the rainbow pony tried to reach down and grab a Twinkie Pinkie, Applejack rushed over and tackled her, immediately pinning her to the floor. However, as they tried to tussle with each other over who’s next to have one, it didn't take more than five seconds for Twilight Sparkle to break up the fight by freezing and encasing her friends in purple magic. She scolded their actions.

“Now quit it you two! We are friends,” she said with a disappointed vocal tone. “NOT a bunch of uncivilized ponies that haven’t heard of the words,” looking over at Applejack with frustration in her voice, “‘restraint’ and,” moving her head over towards Rainbow Dash, “‘decency’ before.” Twilight let go of her floating friends.

After they both fell to the floor, Applejack and Rainbow Dash rubbed off the pain from their fall before looking at each other with regret for their argument. As they apologized for their mistakes, they, along with Fluttershy and Twilight, came up with the idea to eat the desserts in unison. That way, they can all enjoy the treat at the same time and not tempt each other with their delight for the snack.

“Agreed?” Twilight implied.

“Agreed,” replied everyone else.

Carrying out their decision, Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Applejack, and Pinkie Pie each grabbed one of the remaining Twinkie Pinkies from the cart and held them in their hoofs. At the very moment after the last pony obtained their treat, they counted down from “three” before biting into their individual sponge cakes. All of a sudden, a loud “yum” came from all five of the ponies having their taste buds enriched.

Before long, they all curled their tongues around to cleanse their inner-mouths of the sweet cream that filled up each “mini-cake.” Then, as their gustatory cells continued to please each pony with the after-taste of corn syrup, they all took another bite out of their treats and gave themselves an enjoyable sensation of pure, unfiltered bliss that came from the snack’s perfect mixture of deliciousness and glycerin, to which Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash had to resist their urges to quickly devour their sweet. This caused both of them to clench their mouths shut until they finished what they haven’t fully swallowed. However, once they had the opportunity to stuff their face again with Pinkie’s Twinkies, they ended their “sugary” ride by chewing up what was left their pastry.

After everyone licked their last pieces of bread and paste from their mouths, the disappointment of having nothing left to eat settled in with the group.

Fluttershy let out a slight moan. “That was so good.”

“Too good,” replied Rainbow Dash.

Twilight agreed. “You said it.”

Meanwhile, Pinkie Pie felt ecstatic from their reactions as her mind raced with the thoughts of them enjoying her new food item. However, wanting to hear their true criticism, she asked, “So… What do you guys think?”

“Pinkie,” Rainbow Dash paused. “They are absolutely the most fantastic thing that I’ve tasted since you started selling those vanilla cupcakes.”

“Oh, I concur!” said Fluttershy. “In fact, I’m sure that if you started selling these right now… Well, I think they will become your best item.”

“Best item?!” Rainbow Dash didn't agree on her thought. “Fluttershy, I think it will become their most ‘popular’ item that they will sell out of them each day! Or before I can have another one.”

“Especially since its cream tastes soooo good.” Rarity licked her lips before pondering on a thought that came to her mind. She was quick to ask, “Wait, Pinkie… What was that cream made from anyway?”

She replied, “Oh, just a simple mixture of some milk, eggs, and a tablespoon of pure caffeine!”

“wait.. WHAT!!!” shouted Twilight, shocked to hear about the last ingredient.

“I’m kidding, I’m kidding, Twi… The last one is really just butter.” Pinkie cracked a nervous grin.

Needless to say, her friend didn't appreciate the humor.
