Product Snapshot: Brazi Bites, pioneer of Latin-inspired, naturally gluten-free and better-for-you foods, will introduce its new line of better-for-you Pizza Bites at Natural Products Expo West from March 8–12, 2022 at the Anaheim Convention Center. Available in three flavors, Four Cheese, Supreme, and Uncured Pepperoni, Brazi Bites Pizza Bites are made with the brand’s award-winning cheese bread dough stuffed with classic pizza fillings for a better, clean ingredient take on the traditional snack. Attendees of the show are invited to visit the Brazi Bites booth #5435 to taste each flavor and for more information.

Initially introduced as a single SKU within the Empanadas product line called Cheese and Pepperoni Pizza’nadas, Brazi Bites expanded Pizza Bites into their own line following the explosive consumer response and sales velocity on the original item. After only six months in market following the Spring 2021 launch, Pizza’nada is quickly rising to the #2 SKU within Brazi Bites’ full portfolio, only outranked by the brand’s top-selling, cult-favorite Cheddar & Parmesan Cheese Bread.

“The consumer response to our first pizza bite launch was incredible, and sent a clear signal that shoppers are hungry for a clean label, better-for-you pizza snack,” said Junea Rocha, co-founder and CMO of Brazi Bites. “We immediately focused our 2022 innovation on bringing additional beloved pizza flavors to market. We're thrilled for Expo West attendees to be the first to try our varieties and welcome all the pizza lovers to our booth for a warm, toasty snack, bursting with flavor!
