They are famous enough to attract a following and many are shipped to transplanted Mainers who might otherwise have to make do with Moon Pies or ordinary snack cakes. Seasonal variations such as pumpkin are available for holidays, but chocolate is the classic and correct choice. Tasting a Two Fat Cats whoopie fresh from the bakery on a grey Maine morning is a road-worthy experience. It feels much more like buttercream than marshmallow, but has an airy enough texture. The filling is a rich, silky marshmallow buttercream. The moist cakes give easily when bitten but don’t become glued to the roof of your mouth. The whoopie pies are presented in cupcake paper with exposed soft cakes that stick to your fingers and smell slightly of baking soda. What should I eat at Two Fat Cats Bakery? Aside from some of the best fruit pies anywhere on the road, the whoopie pies are so good that they redeem what all too often are dry, forgettable picnic cakes. But it would be folly to miss the baked goods. There isn’t much seating either, just a couple of card tables out front. They don’t fuss much about coffee, although they serve a decent cup. ![]()
