Have I missed a new trend?


so according to a magazine i glanced at today, cupcakes are soooooo last season. now everyone, just everyone is making... woopie pies. clearly this trend completely passed me by!
so what are woopie pies?!
according to that fountain of all knowledge, wikipedia, a woopie pie is
' a baked good made of two round mound-shaped pieces of chocolate cake, sometimes pumpkin cake, with a sweet, creamy frosting sandwiched between them. While considered a New England phenomenon and a Pennsylvania Amish tradition, they are increasingly sold throughout the United States. According to food historians, Amish women would bake these and put them in farmers' lunchboxes. When farmers would find these treats in their lunch, they would shout "Whoopie!" '

I think i'm going to have to get my act together and get baking, quick!
