Blackbird Foods Launches Pizza Minis at Whole Foods Market

Blackbird Pizza Minis
Blackbird Foods

The Blackbirdie Pizza Minis, Blackbird Foods’ new, frozen, plant-based personal pizzas, are now available nationwide at Whole Foods.

September 27, 2025

Blackbird Foods, a chef-crafted plant-based foods brand, launched its newest innovation: Blackbirdie Pizza Minis, which are available nationwide at Whole Foods Market. This rollout marks the brand’s first national launch with the retailer.

The Blackbirdie Pizza Minis are 5-inch personal pizzas made with a hearty, whole-grain crust and plant-based ingredients. Each box includes four mini pizzas, perfectly portioned for busy school nights, quick workplace lunches or anytime snacking. The Blackbirdie Pizza Minis are ready in just 90 seconds in the microwave, six minutes in an air fryer or eight minutes in the oven, making them a quick and convenient choice for families and students alike. Available in two kid-friendly varieties (Cheese and Pepperoni), each Blackbirdie Pizza Mini is non-GMO, dairy- and cholesterol-free, and vegan.

The Cheese Blackbirdie Pizza Minis are topped with melty, dairy-free cheese, while the Pepperoni Blackbirdie Pizza Minis feature crispy, flavorful plant-based pepperoni slices. Crafted to satisfy traditional cravings with a better-for-you twist, the Blackbirdie Pizza Minis deliver convenience without compromise.

Earlier this year, VegNews named Blackbird’s Pizza Minis the Best New Vegan Product at Expo West, highlighting the product’s standout flavor and innovation.

“We are excited to launch [the Blackbirdie] Pizza Minis in Whole Foods nationwide,” said Emanuel Storch, co-founder of Blackbird Foods. “We first debuted [the] Minis at Expo West in March to an incredible response. With fall approaching, we know families are looking for quick and easy meal solutions, and we believe [the Blackbirdie] Pizza Minis are the perfect fit.”

Founded in 2020, Blackbird Foods quickly gained a following for its bold, chef-crafted plant-based foods. In addition to frozen pizzas, the company offers plant-based WINGS and high-protein seitan, which are all designed with uncompromising flavor and quality in mind. Most recently, Blackbird’s WINGS launched in Purple Carrot, FreshDirect, Earth Fare and The Giant Company.

Blackbird’s Cheese and Pepperoni Pizza Minis are now available in the freezer aisle at Whole Foods Market stores nationwide, with a suggested retail price of $9.99.

About Blackbird Foods
Founded by chefs, Blackbird Foods specializes in creating chef-crafted comfort foods from plants, including pizzas and wings. Since its launch in 2020, Blackbird has expanded its retail line to feature hand-tossed frozen pizzas, seitan and WINGS. All of Blackbird’s products are plant-based and made in New York City using simple, fresh ingredients. Available in over 3,500 retailers nationwide, including Whole Foods, Target and Sprouts, Blackbird Foods brings delicious, plant-based options to a wide audience.
