Pizza Hut Triple Treat Box

Pizza Hut introduced Monday a new, three-level Triple Treat Box that includes separate drawers for pizza, breadsticks and desserts.

Packaged in a miniature cardboard taboret cabinet, the Triple Treat offers two medium one-topping pizzas, breadsticks and an eight-slice chocolate chip cookie for $19.99.

“We believe the Triple Treat Box brings the pizza and products that customers have always loved from Pizza Hut in a very fun, inviting holiday box that definitely can make every day a holiday,” said Jared Drinkwater, vice president of marketing for Plano, Texas-based Pizza Hut, in a statement.

The holiday-themed Triple Treat Box will be offered while supplies last, the company said.

“It's a delicious, easy meal to share with family and friends, and while it's always fun to get pizza, getting pizza in a special gift-wrapped box can add even a little more excitement to pizza night," Drinkwater said.

To support the Triple Treat Box debut, Pizza Hut will introduce new television ads that will begin airing the week of Nov. 15. The company said the ads will feature “an assortment of celebrities.”

The one-topping pizzas in the Triple Treat offer can be paired with various crust flavors, sauces and drizzles, as well as breadsticks or “Flavor Sticks,” which include such selections as fiery red pepper, toasted cheddar, Parmesan, Asiago or honey-Sriracha.

The promotion also includes an eight-slice Hershey's Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookie, which Pizza Hut introduced in 2014.

Earlier this year, Pizza Hut said it would remove artificial flavors and colors from its core pizzas.

Pizza Hut, a subsidiary of Louisville, Ky.-based Yum! Brands Inc., has more than 15,600 restaurants in more than 90 nations.
