DETROIT, May 29, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- The next generation of HOT-N-READY is here as Little Caesars, the pizza chain known for the $5 HOT-N-READY pepperoni pizza, launches Create Your Own EXTRA MOST BESTEST pizzas. Create Your Own EXTRA MOST BESTEST pizzas build on the success and legacy of the $5 HOT-N-READY classic pizza by offering new pizza varieties with the same focus on value, quality and convenience. Customers can use the Little Caesars mobile app to create their favorite round pizza with the most cheese and the most of up to four of our toppings at the nation's best price.* Create Your Own EXTRA MOST BESTEST pizzas, starting at $6,*** are a permanent addition to the menu nationwide and are available starting May 28.
"Last year, Little Caesars introduced the $6 EXTRA MOST BESTEST pepperoni pizza, and its success has confirmed what we already knew…people love toppings," said Ed Gleich, Senior Vice President of Marketing at Little Caesars. "And we've long been the leader in pizza value. Create Your Own EXTRA MOST BESTEST pizzas was the next natural evolution of our great brand."
Little Caesars makes its dough fresh in stores daily and tops them with sauce made from fresh-packed, vine-ripened California crushed tomatoes. Now, customers can choose their toppings for their EXTRA MOST BESTEST pizzas via the "custom pizza builder" on the Little Caesars mobile app. Topping choices available include: pepperoni, bacon, beef, Italian sausage, ham, green peppers, onions and mushrooms. Most stores also offer black olives, jalapeno peppers, banana peppers and pineapple.
Customers just place an order and pre-pay via the Little Caesars mobile app. The app will notify customers when the order is ready. When customers arrive at the store, their order is ready for them to pick up.
The Little Caesars mobile app is built with pizza-loving customers in mind. Features include:
- Mobile payment, including Apple Pay® for iOS users.
- Store locator that automatically detects the closest store to you and allows search.
- "Custom pizza builder": an interactive drag and drop experience. Users "make" their pizza by choosing from any available crust, then dragging and dropping their choice of toppings on to the pizza. Toppings can be place on the entire pizza, or half.
- Order scheduling: Orders can be placed up to six days in advance.
- User-friendly, clean interface and minimal clicks per transaction.
- Save favorites for quick ordering later.
