Rebranding
What is the Little Debbie brand?
In 1935, the McKee’s started their own baked goods business, which
is still known and very popular today. The brand Little Debbie has
become such an icon for its great and fresh tasting snacks. However,
the Oatmeal Creme Pie has been the catalyst towards the companies
success and it is still an American favorite.
Little Debbie: Packaging Timeline
•	1960: The first family-pack was produced and consisted of
the original snack cake, the Oatmeal Creme Pie 				
			
•	1964: 14 varieties out from growing popularity 					
		
•	2013: McKee ships more than 900 million cartons of Lit-
tle Debbie products
•	1930: Twinkies sponge cakes are invented by James Dewar
as a way to make an inexpensive product during the De-
pression																	
	
•	2008: Twinkies are repackaged into a 100-calorie “Twinkie
Bites” snack pack in a bid to appear more health conscious	
				
•	2013: Makes a comeback after closing in 2012
CompetitionVS.
By completely rebranding Little Debbie, we aim to focus
on a target audience between 18-35 years old. Since our tar-
get audience is young, we want to modernize Little Debbie
into popular culture. Rap music is something that has been
popular especially in this generation, so for our campaign are
going to base it off of a well publicized rap “fight” between
Meek Mill and Drake.
	
	 This will be accomplished by incorporating a mix of print
and social media to engage consumers and establish a stron-
ger brand image. Each of these ads will be referring to how
Little Debbie has stayed intact while Hostess went bankrupt.
The goal for this campaign is to show that Little Debbie nev-
er needed a “comeback” and to increase consumer loyality.
