More than 138 billion Little Debbie® Snacks have been sold since 1960 in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Puerto Rico and on U.S. military bases worldwide.

Every week, Little Debbie® Snacks are baked fresh and delivered from our bakeries to your communities — that’s why they’re so fresh tasting. Local independent distributors, who are members of your communities, ensure that the freshest products are available in your stores.
