Dinner staples are turning snackable as consumers embrace smaller, more frequent eating occasions, and in line with changing consumer habits, Mrs. T’s Pierogies launched Snack Pierogies. These snack-sized pierogies were specifically created for the air fryer, and they make flavorful, crispy snacks in just eight minutes. To achieve this, the brand developed dough optimized for quick cooking.
"We heard from consumers with busy families that they are searching for flavor-packed snacks that anyone can prepare," said Alyssa Panzarella, Director of Marketing at Mrs. T’s Pierogies, "That’s why we’re taking our pierogies from mealtime to snack time."
Snack Pierogies debuted in three flavorful varieties: Cheddar Sour Cream & Onion, 5 Cheese, and Cheddar Ranch Seasoned with Bacon. Each pouch contains 50 pierogies that teens, parents, and all members of the household can enjoy.
