Enjoying artisanal-inspired fare is often reserved for independent restaurants and eateries alike, but this is about to change thanks to the new Little Caesars Artisan-Style Pizzas.
The pizzas are being test marketed by the brand in an array of markets and feature an elongated format that's slightly smaller than its traditional offerings, which is cut into 12 rustic pieces. The pizza comes in three options including Cheesy Garlic Chicken, Bruschetta and Double Pepperoni to offer an elevated take on some classic flavors. Each recipe works with the toppings already on hand in Little Caesars kitchens to offer something new yet elevated.
The Little Caesars Artisan-Style Pizzas are priced starting at $5.99 each to make them a competitive option for cost-conscious consumers to pick up for takeout or have delivered.
