Cheez-It Frozen Pizza is the unexpected collaboration snack fans didn’t know they needed. Palermo Villa, Inc., a frozen pizza giant, and Cheez-It, a leading snack brand, have partnered to bring Cheez-It Frozen Pizza to life – a 12 inch, ultra-thin, and crispy Original Cheez-It flavored crust made with 100% real cheese, paired with your favorite pizza toppings to remind you of the irresistible, cheesy flavor you love.  

Cheez-It Frozen Pizza is available now for a suggested retail price of $6.99 - $9.99 and can be found at select retailers nationwide, including Kroger, Ahold, HEB, Winn-Dixie, Wegman’s, and Food City. Product rollout begins in May and will widely expand by August.  This innovative product is set to delight snack enthusiasts and pizza lovers alike, offering a unique twist on two beloved favorites. 

Cheez-It Frozen Pizzas come in three mouthwatering flavors: 

  • Italian Four Cheese: A delightful blend of whole milk mozzarella, yellow cheddar, parmesan, and Romano cheeses with marinara sauce atop an ultra-thin, and crispy Original Cheez-It flavored crust.  
  • Pepperoni: Featuring whole milk mozzarella, yellow cheddar, pepperoni, and marinara sauce atop an ultra-thin, and crispy Original Cheez-It flavored crust, this flavor is sure to satisfy classic pizza cravings.  
  • Cheddar Jack Supreme: A hearty combination of pepperoni, Italian sausage, green and red peppers, black olives, onions, yellow cheddar, Monterey Jack, and marinara atop an ultra-thin, and crispy Original Cheez-It flavored crust.  

Add an unexpected twist to pizza night with Cheez-It Frozen pizza. We are excited to bring families and friends together over this exciting innovation for movie night, game day, or just because! “Cheez-It Frozen Pizza brings the best of both categories,” said Nick Fallucca, chief innovation officer for Palermo’s. “This starts with the crust which is like a large Cheez-It flavored cracker – crispy, cheesy, and square-shaped. It’s then topped with customer-favorite toppings that perfectly complement the crust.”
