Papa Johns rereleases Pan Pizza
The brand has reformatted its pan-style bakery offering.
Papa Johns has relaunched its Pan Pizza. Built on years of culinary development, Papa Johns Pan Pizza brings together crispy caramelized edges; a pillowy, airy center; and an indulgent six-cheese blend for a rich experience, the company says.
“After nearly a decade, we've reimagined Pan Pizza to bring it back onto our menu,” says Jenna Bromberg, CMO of Papa Johns. “Consumer expectations for flavor and value are higher than ever. And the pan pizza category is crowded, which is why we took a deliberate, consumer-led approach to developing the perfect recipe, and focused on getting every detail right. Pan pizza is nostalgic, indulgent and so beloved, and we saw the chance to elevate a pan-style pizza in a way that feels distinctly Papa Johns.”
According to the company, Papa Johns Pan Pizza brings unique texture and bold flavor at every layer, including:
- A fluffy, thick crust with an airy interior
- Parmesan cheese and Papa Johns Special Garlic Sauce baked directly into the bottom of the pan for a golden, caramelized finish and crispy savory crunch
- A decadent six-cheese blend made with real cheese made from Mozzarella, Provolone, Fontina, Asiago, Parmesan, and Romano
- Built to hold up to seven edge-to-edge toppings
- A final dusting of Italian seasoning for a flavor-packed finish
- No artificial colors or flavors
"Consumers shouldn’t have to settle for ‘good enough’," said Shivram Vaideeswaran, Senior Vice President of Brand Marketing at Papa Johns. “We didn’t bring Pan Pizza back to simply participate in the category; we rebuilt it from the pan up to raise the standard. From the golden, crispy edges to the soft, airy center and bold, indulgent flavors in every bite, every detail was intentional. This isn’t just another launch, it’s our statement that great pizza matters, and our new Pan Pizza proves it from the very first bite."
Papa Johns Pan Pizza is now available nationwide starting at $11.99 for a 1-topping medium-sized pizza at participating locations.
