Dr. Oetker is introducing three new flavours to its Ristorante frozen pizza range, including a new tier of premium pizzas. A brand new Pepperoni Mozzarella Pesto pizza joins the core range, featuring a thin and crispy crust topped with pepperoni, mozzarella and a pesto garnish. Alongside this, a new tier of premium pizzas, Ristorante Primo, includes two flavours – Salame Piccante Nduja and Pollo Funghi Truffini. The Salame Piccante Nduja is topped with mozzarella, calabrese salame, nduja, peppadew peppers and a sweet, hot honey garnish on a chilli-infused crust. Pollo Funghi Truffini features mozzarella, roast garlic chicken, crispy bacon, sliced mushrooms and a rich truffle garnish on an Italian herb-infused crust. Laura Robinson, senior brand manager at Dr. Oetker Ristorante, said: “We’re pleased to be able to announce our range of exciting new products to the frozen pizza category. We hope that Ristorante fans will enjoy the delicious new flavours and find new favourites within the Primo range.” The trio launched in Asda stores on 14 August and will roll out into other major retailers later this year.
