On November 19th, Pizza Hut will revamp its menu with new ingredients, sauces, crust flavors, drizzle sauces, and specialty pizzas. They’re calling the menu, “Flavor of Now.”
But what about the flavors of the past, you ask? Don’t worry, those who fear change. Pizza Hut will still offer their classic pizzas, like Meat Lover’s, Supreme, Veggie Lover’s, and Cheese Lover’s.
WARNING: There are a lot of lists below.
The Flavor of Now Menu has five new ingredients:
Premium Salami – Cured and seasoned with a traditional Italian blend of red pepper, anise, and fennel.
Classic Meatballs – Seasoned pork and beef combined with onions, mushrooms, and bread crumbs.
Fresh Spinach – Crisp and sprinkled on top of the pizza as it comes out of the oven.
Sliced Banana Peppers – Pickled and sliced to add a mild tang.
Peruvian Cherry Peppers – Sweet and spicy peppers harvested from the highlands of Peru.
There are eight new crust flavors:
Hut Favorite – A garlic buttery blend with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan and hint of Italian herbs.
Toasted Parmesan – A sprinkle of all-natural Parmesan, toasted to perfection.
Salted Pretzel – A freshly baked soft pretzel crust edge.
Honey Sriracha – A sweet heat fusion of real honey and red chilies.
Fiery Red Pepper – A blend of cayenne and crushed red pepper.
Toasted Cheddar – A dash of shredded cheddar baked on.
Toasted Asiago – A touch of shredded, savory Asiago for a unique toasted flavor.
Garlic Buttery Blend – A garlic buttery blend with a hint of oregano, parsley and basil.
There are six sauces you can use as a base layer:

Then there are four new drizzle sauces (three of which you’ve already read about) :
Balsamic – A slightly sweet reduction of Modena, Italy, balsamic vinegar, aged in oak and chestnut casks.
Honey Sriracha – If you’ve read the previous Honey Sriracha descriptions, say it with me, a fusion of real honey and red chilies.
