With a growing number of pizza chains making an effort to offer shareable appetizers and desserts, [Domino's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dominos-ovenbaked-dips) has debuted a new lineup of Bread Twists in a variety of [sweet and savory flavors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buffalo-seasoned-pretzel-twists). Ideal for big summer get-togethers, the new breadsticks give consumers the option to add something a little extra to their standard pizza order.

The new Bread Twists from Domino's are breadstick-style bites made from the chain's signature pan dough. The dough is then folded into a twisted shape and baked to create a crispy exterior and fluffy interior. The Bread Twists are also seasoned with either a buttery-tasting garlic sauce, Parmesan cheese seasoning or [cinnamon sugar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolate-chip-pizzert). The savory versions are served with a side of marinara sauce for dipping, while the cinnamon version comes with side of sweet icing.
