“Recognition from Product of the Year is a testament to the capabilities of our talented culinary and product development team and our commitment to quality and innovation in the frozen bread category,” said Izzy Laanaba, senior director, brand management at T. Marzetti Co. “At T. Marzetti, our mission is to make every meal better, and we are thrilled that consumers are adding Gluten Free Texas Toast and Texas Roadhouse Mini Rolls to their families’ meals.”

New York Bakery Gluten Free Texas Toast launched in August 2024 in two flavors: Five Cheese Texas Toast and Garlic Texas Toast. After more than a decade of research, the company developed a patent-pending dough-based recipe and proprietary production process that delivers the taste, texture and structural integrity of traditional Texas Toast. Both varieties of the gluten-free Texas Toast are available at major grocery stores including Walmart, Publix, Meijer, Kroger and Albertsons.

Texas Roadhouse Mini Rolls launched in June 2024 as part of T. Marzetti’s exclusive licensing agreement with Texas Roadhouse. The product comes in a 12-count bakeable pan with a packet of honey cinnamon glaze and is available exclusively at Walmart, with additional retailer distribution expected in the coming months.
