Pizza Hut is Putting a Romantic Twist on Pizza This Valentine's Day

— February 14, 2017 — Lifestyle
In an effort to help those who would rather spend Valentine's Day at home than at the priciest restaurant in town, Pizza Hut is putting a romantic twist on pizza. Although not a traditional aphrodisiac, the chain's new heart-shaped pizza is sure to put a smile on the face of that special someone.

Pizza Hut's new heart-shaped pizza is a limited-edition menu item available from now through February 14th, 2017. The pizza is made from a hand-tossed crust that has been formed into the shape of a heart. The pizza is medium in size and comes with a choice of one topping. Pizza Hut is also offering a Valentine's Day Bundle, which allows customers to order their pizza with one of the three possible dessert options: the Hershey's Hot Chocolate Brownie, the Hershey's Triple Chocolate Brownie or the Ultimate Hershey's Chocolate Chip Cookie.
