SOLON, OH — Frozen pizza brand DiGiorno, part of Nestle’s portfolio, is teaming up with Hidden Valley Ranch to create two “ranchified” pizzas.
“DiGiorno knows there is fan frenzy and a deep passion for the beloved combination of pizza and ranch,” said Kimberly Holowiak, senior brand manager for DiGiorno. “With ranch being a top condiment choice to dip pizza in, we wanted to imagine new ways for fans to enjoy this pairing that was exclusive to the freezer aisle. DiGiorno is thrilled to unveil two ‘ranchified’ pizzas in collaboration with Hidden Valley Ranch that will continue to wow consumers’ tastebuds.”
The DiGiorno Spicy Rancheroni Thin Crust Pizza features a spicy buffalo-style Hidden Valley Ranch sauce topped with pepperoni, mozzarella cheese, jalapeños and a sprinkle of Hidden Valley Ranch seasoning.
The DiGiorno Chicken Bacon Ranch STUFFED Crust Pizza is packed with grilled white meat chicken, applewood smoked bacon and creamy ranch sauce on top of a bacon and cheese-stuffed crust sprinkled with Hidden Valley Ranch seasoning.
“This collaboration brings together two iconic brands to create a pizza experience like no other,” said CC Ciafone, marketing director at Hidden Valley Ranch. “With DiGiorno, we’ve partnered on pizzas that not only taste amazing but also celebrate the love of pizza and Hidden Valley Ranch in every bite.”
In celebration of the collaboration, the pizza brand is also debuting a merch line, available only as an online giveaway.
The limited-edition DiGiorno Spicy Rancheroni Thin Crust Pizza is available exclusively at Kroger Family of Stores for an SRP of $6.99, while the DiGiorno Chicken Bacon Ranch STUFFED Crust Pizza will be available nationwide starting in April for an SRP of $9.49.
