"We are incredibly excited and proud to introduce Dr. Oetker Virtuoso Classic Crust," says William Whalen, executive vice president.

Mediterranean Style Chicken: An exotic mix of sliced seasoned chicken breast, zucchini, black olives, colorful bell peppers, red onions, 100% real mozzarella cheese and a creamy tzatziki sauce.

Pepperoni: Slices of pepperoni, 100% real mozzarella and Emmentaler cheeses and Virtuoso's signature sauce.
