(FOX NEWS) - Hostess Brands Inc. has announced that not only will their employees receive monetary bonuses this year, but they will also get a year’s worth of free baked goods!

After enacting tax legislation, Hostess will be rewarding its 1,036 bakery and corporate employees bonuses of $750 in cash, a 401(k) contribution of $500, and a year’s worth of free product.

“The recent tax reform changes have given us the opportunity to review our benefit and compensation structure with an eye toward further investing in our workforce — our extraordinary team of employees who have and continue to help make Hostess so successful,” said executive chairman C. Dean Metropoulos in a press release by the baked goods brand.

No, employees will not have to fill their cars with a year’s worth of Twinkies and Ding Dongs. A representative from each bakery location will choose a “product of the week” for the bakery and all eligible employees will be able to take home one multi-pack of the chosen item every week for an entire year.
