The pizza starts off with the brand's signature dough that's topped with sauce, cheese and pepperoni before being cooked to perfection. The pizza is then sliced into strips that are intended to fit neatly into [dipping sauce containers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/popeyes-dips) to allow consumers to dip every bite in a sauce of their choosing. The Papa Johns Papa Dippa pizza comes served with three new sauces including [Roasted Garlic Parmesan](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/donatos-pizza-creamy-parm-sauce), Garlic Hot Honey and Creamy Garlic Pesto. The pizza is priced at $13.99 and is available now at participating locations, but only for a limited time.
