HOHO

HoHo commonly refers to Ho Hos, a brand of chocolate snack cake produced by Hostess Brands. Introduced in 1967, Ho Hos are individually wrapped, rolled cakes with a crème filling and a chocolate coating. The product has been marketed in various sizes and flavors and is widely sold in the United States, with availability in some international markets under similar branding.

In popular culture, "ho ho ho" is the characteristic laugh associated with Santa Claus and is widely used to evoke Christmas cheer. The phrase appears in advertising, media, and everyday speech during the holiday season. The branding for the snack cake and the holiday laugh are distinct uses of the same phrase, with separate spellings and connotations.

Beyond these, HoHo or Ho Ho may occasionally appear in other brand names or creative works, depending on local marketing or fictional contexts. These uses are not standardized and vary by region and product line. In general, the term is most commonly linked to the Hostess snack cake and to the Santa Claus laugh, which together form the main points of reference for the expression.
