HELL introduces BAKED, available in supermarkets

29 March, 2017

HELL has finally frozen over!

In a quest to deliver quality pizza to more Kiwis, the founders of HELL Pizza have created BAKED.

Handmade and blast frozen in Wellington, with exactly the same quality ingredients as iconic HELL pizzas, the BAKED range is now available in supermarket freezers across the country.

“Every week we get emails from people, who live in areas that don’t have a HELL store, asking us to open one in their town,” said HELL and BAKED founder Stu McMullin. “Unfortunately, that’s normally not feasible; however, in BAKED we’ve created a very close substitute.

“Every BAKED pizza is handmade with the same ingredients used in a HELL store, then we blast freeze the raw dough. This helps us retain much of the goodness and means we don’t have to par cook the bases, which rise when baked rather than turn to cardboard!

“Consumer demand for quality offerings from supermarkets is rising and we’re seeing the popularity of premium artisan products, such as craft beers, dairy and free range meats, in traditionally commoditised categories,” said Stu. “The consumer is demanding quality and value and BAKED pizza delivers that.

“BAKED caters to a very different consumer from a HELL customer – those who don’t always want the full takeaway experience, with sides and deserts, but instead a quick feed for one or two adults or kids.

“They’re never going to be as good as fresh from a HELL oven; however, the frozen BAKED product is a massive step up from any other pizza you’ll find in the supermarket freezer.

“Our mantra is simple. Get BAKED often!”
