The Blaze Pizza Sweet Heat pizza is making its way to participating locations in the US and Canada thanks to a partnership with Marvel Television to celebrate the upcoming premiere of Daredevil: Born Again season 2. The pizza starts off with premium dough that's topped with a spicy red sauce before being topped with double pepperoni, roasted red peppers and mozzarella cheese. The pizza is then finished with a drizzling of Mike's Hot Honey to give it a truly sweet and spicy (AKA swicy) flavor profile for fans to enjoy.
Chief Marketing Officer Casey Terrell spoke on the Blaze Pizza Sweet Heat pizza saying, "This collaboration is about more than just a pizza, it’s about creating an experience our guests can engage with week after week. Daredevil is bold, intense and unapologetic, and the ‘Sweet Heat’ delivers that same energy in every bite. From weekly app drops to a limited-edition Marvel comic available at select locations, we’re giving fans something they can’t get anywhere else."
