That's amoré: Heart-shaped pizzas roll out for Valentine's Day
22.02.12
Year after year, pizzas have proven to be the perfect food for love. The crust can be manipulated into a heart shape, and the offering itself is ideal for sharing.
Plenty of operators are taking advantage of Valentine's Day – and, in some cases American Heart Month – by launching special heart-shaped pizzas to help Cupid's cause. Below are some of those promotions.
Papa John's
Papa John's debuted its heart-shaped pizza three years ago, and sold more than 60,000 of them last year. The chain is predicting sales of 75,000 this year.
The thin crust pizza is available for $15, which includes one topping and a Cinnapie.
Papa Murphy's
Papa Murphy's has brought back its HeartBaker Pizza .
The pepperoni pizza is available through Feb. 14 for $6. Prices and participation for the HeartBaker vary nationwide.
Papa Romano's Pizza
Papa Romano's Pizza is once again bringing back its "Love Pizza" for the holiday. The heart-shaped pies sell for $5.99, and are available in "Papa's Romance Package," which includes two heart-shaped, one-topping Love Pizzas, a medium salad and two chocolate chip cookies for $16.99. Papa Romano's has more than 40 locations in Michigan and Colorado.
