Crunchy Crust Pan Pizzas

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Toppers Pizza Pan Pizza Has Caramelized Wisconsin Cheese on the Edge

— October 8, 2024 — Lifestyle
Toppers Pizza Pan Pizza is the brand's latest mouthwatering menu addition that's crafted with taste and texture in mind to provide fans with the perfect option to try out this fall.

The pizza features thick dough that's cooked in a deep dish and paired with ample Wisconsin cheese that gets caramelized at the edge to give it a crispy touch. This acts as the crust rather than featuring an edge of dough to help the flavor extend right from the middle to every aspect of the pizza recipe. The pizza is available now for $9.99, which will get customers a medium one-topping pie.

Chef Brian Brindza spoke on the Toppers Pizza Pan Pizza saying, "When we set out to create our pan pizza, we didn’t just wing it. We tested everything and I mean everything. We tested so many different types of our competitor’s pan pizza – trying different doughs, cheeses, and toppings – because good enough is never good enough for us. We wanted that perfect balance of crispy, cheesy, and crunchy that would make you stop mid-bite and go, ‘Oh yeah, that’s the one’."
