Papa Murphy’s Holdings Inc., the take-and-bake pizza franchise, announced the launch of its new Gourmet Delite artisan thin-crust pizza collection. Consumers can indulge in a lighter, more refined pizza experience, which includes fresh, gourmet toppings and features the new Angus Steak and Roasted Garlic Pizza and the new Spicy Fennel Sausage Pizza.

“Consumers today are looking for a fresher, lighter and more sophisticated pizza experience and we believe our new Gourmet Delite artisan thin crust pizza collection offers all of that without sacrificing flavor or taste,” says Ken Calwell, CEO of Papa Murphy’s. “Our innovative culinary team hand-picked new artisan ingredients such as Angus steak, roasted garlic and spicy fennel sausage then added specialty blends of cheese, zesty herbs, and sauces to offer a great tasting and thin-crust pizza that customers have been craving.”

All of the pizzas in the new collection start with a foundation of an artisan thin crust and are topped with signature ingredients including Angus steak, spicy fennel sausage, roasted garlic, artichoke hearts, spinach, Feta cheese, and sun-dried tomatoes. The new Angus Steak and Roasted Garlic Pizza is topped with garlic sauce, whole-milk Mozzarella, Angus steak, roasted garlic, sliced mushrooms, green onions, and aged Parmesan. The new Spicy Fennel Sausage Pizza is topped with creamy garlic sauce, whole-milk Mozzarella, spicy fennel sausage, sun-dried tomatoes, sliced mushrooms, spinach, and aged Parmesan.
