# Pizza-Inspired Cheese Flavors Trader Joe's Pizza Bread Cheese is Stretchy, Gooey and Flavorful By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2022-01-25 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pizza-bread-cheese References: [traderjoes](https://www.traderjoes.com/home/products/pdp/pizza-bread-cheese-073304)  After Trader Joe's Garlic Bread Cheese was launched and well-received by customers, Trader Joe's launched a new Pizza Bread Cheese. Like the previously released limited-run cheese that quickly gained a following for the way it became gooey and stretchy but not completely melted when heated, this new cheese boasts "that same texture and gooey-when-heated quality." Notably, this cheese is free from gluten, and the "bread" in the name refers only to the consistency of the product. This cheese is not only desirable for its unique texture and properties but also its flavor, which is amplified by classic pizza seasonings like oregano, basil, fennel, and dried tomato flakes. Trader Joe's Pizza Bread Cheese is best enjoyed after being heated in a skillet or microwave as an appetizer or snack. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 11% | Activity: 44% | Freshness: 11% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Pizza-inspired Cheese:** Opportunity for developing new pizza-inspired cheese products with unique textures, gooey-when-heated quality, and classic pizza seasonings. - **Gluten-free Cheese:** Opportunity for developing more gluten-free cheese products with desirable unique textures and characteristics. - **Appetizer Cheese:** Opportunity for developing new cheese products specifically designed to be heated in a skillet or microwave as an appetizer or snack. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Dairy Industry:** Opportunity for dairy industry to innovate and create new cheese products that mimic classic pizza flavors and unique textures. - **Gluten-free Industry:** Opportunity for gluten-free industry to develop and market cheese products that are free from gluten and still maintain their unique textures and qualities. - **Appetizer Industry:** Opportunity for appetizer industry to incorporate new pizza-inspired cheese products into their offerings for quick and easy heated appetizers or snacks. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sliced Herbed Cheese](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/basil-monterey-jack-cheese.md) - [Frozen Mozzarella Cheese Sticks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/breaded-mozzarella-cheese-sticks.md) - [Spicy Pull Apart Breads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheddar-jalapeo-pull-apart-bread.md) - [Breaded Cheese Curd Bites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/breaded-cheddar-cheese-curds.md) - [Herby Pizza-Seasoned Crackers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pizza-seasoned-crackers.md) - [Baked Pizza Puffs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baked-pizza-flavored-pillow-crisps.md) - [Pizza-Flavored Seasoning Blends](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pizza-sprinkle-seasoning-blend.md) - [Snack-Sized Mozzarella Bites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fresh-mozzarella-cheese-snackers.md) - [Garlicky Asiago Cheese Dips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trader-joes-garlic-asiago-cheese-dip.md)
