The Ding Dong was a chocolate cake most recently produced and distributed in the US by Hostess Brands, and remains in production and distribution in Canada from Saputo Incorporated under the name King Don. It is round with a flat top and bottom, about three inches in diameter and a little more than an inch high, similar in shape to a hockey puck. A white creamy filling is injected into the center, and a thin coating of chocolate glaze covers the entire cake. The cake was originally wrapped in a square of thick aluminium foil, enabling it to be carried in lunches without melting the chocolate glaze.
