\"\"<\/p>\n

I was slightly confused when I heard all the hubbub about Little Caesars introducing a new limited edition Stuffed Pretzel Crust. \u201cI could have sworn I\u2019ve had that before\u2026\u201d I thought, but it turns out I remembered merely customizing a pretzel crust pizza to add stuffed crust to it. This is the first time that \u201cStuffed Pretzel Crust\u201d itself has officially appeared on the menu, and as a marketing aficionado, I\u2019m happy to accept that as a unique new product worthy of its own celebration.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In the promotional images, the pretzel crust is a rich brown, solid, and stout, shimmering with butter and salt, reminiscent of the iconic Bavarian pretzel. What was inside my pizza box looked so different that I was initially afraid I\u2019d gotten the wrong order. My crust seemed perhaps a tad darker than usual, but it didn\u2019t have the deep shade or sheen I expected.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When I bit in, though, I realized it was perfectly pretzel-y; it was just more like a different type of pretzel: Auntie Anne\u2019s. While it didn\u2019t have a Bavarian pretzel\u2019s telltale hue, firm snap leading to a chewy bite, or malty taste, it did boast a buttery, subtle sweetness, so perfectly complemented by its tender, fluffy texture that it practically melted in my mouth. Though it wasn\u2019t what I expected, it paired with the stuffed crust beautifully. While the doughy pretzel crust didn\u2019t have an overwhelming flavor, it had a noticeable aftertaste. That was well-balanced by the simple, mild cheese inside, which was soft enough that it paired perfectly with the pillowy crust yet never became gooey.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

There are a few options on the website for how to order your Pretzel Stuffed Crust; taking the first option as a subtle endorsement, I went with Cheese Sauce & Pepperoni. I must confess I imagined the cheese sauce would be a small cup for dipping the crust into, like how many restaurants offer soft pretzel sticks with cheese dip as an appetizer. It wasn\u2019t until I was partway through a surprisingly mild-tasting slice that it hit me: the cheese sauce wasn\u2019t on the side, it was replacing the tomato sauce on the pizza! <\/p>\n

This may sound counterintuitive, but I think the fact that it took me so long to realize this shows how well it worked. The cheese sauce blended perfectly with the cheese topping, bringing a unique creaminess. While tomato sauce usually adds some savory depth, the pretzel crust means that this pizza is covered in a generous, tongue-tingling smattering of salt that already provides plenty of complex flavor, so I appreciated that the sauce was more mellow in comparison. Its color reminded me of Velveeta cheese, but the taste wasn\u2019t so tangy, more like a bland nacho cheese. This plainness also allowed the pepperoni to particularly pop.<\/p>\n

First, I was surprised by how my Stuffed Pretzel Crust looked, but by the end of my meal, I was only surprised by how much I enjoyed it. It would be nice if the promotional images were a bit more accurate, but the decadent feeling of combining stuffed crust pizza with my favorite airport treat was way worth the slightly mismatched expectations.<\/p>\n
