Papa Murphy’s Take ‘n’ Bake Pizza is serving up sweet heat this summer with the launch of its new Hulapeño Pizza.
Available for a limited time as part of Papa Murphy’s signature Papa’s Picks lineup, the new Hulapeño Pizza features the perfect balance of fruity sweetness and tongue-tingling spice. Each pizza is topped with DOLE pineapple, pepperoni, jalapeño slices, traditional red sauce, and whole-milk mozzarella. The whole thing is then finished with a drizzle of Thai chili sauce to bring the sweet and spicy flavors together. Best of all, the pizza is sold for just $12.99 ($13.99 in California, $14.99 in Alaska). As Dallas Massey, Senior Vice President of Marketing for Papa Murphy's, explains, ""The Hulapeño Pizza is proof that great flavor doesn’t have to come with a premium price tag.
