Available through October, these two new flavors, available in a 14.5-ounce barrel, join Utz’s fan-favorite original Cheddar Cheese Balls that have been delighting snack fans for generations.
The newly redesigned 23-ounce Cheddar Cheese Balls barrel, which is rolling out to retailers nationwide, features a fresh new look while delivering the same delicious Cheese Balls and familiar size that fans know and love.
"National Cheese Ball Day is the perfect occasion to introduce our new packaging and two bold new limited-time flavors that take our iconic Cheese Balls to the next level," said Stacey Schultz, senior vice president of marketing at Utz Quality Foods, LLC, a subsidiary of Utz Brands, Inc. "Our Red Hot flavor brings a fiery kick to the classic Cheese Balls, while the Utz Cheese Pizza Mike's Hot Honey flavor delivers an innovative sweet-heat-savory combination that flavor seekers will love."
The Utz Cheese Pizza Mike's Hot Honey Cheese Balls mark the third collaboration in the growing partnership between the two brands. Building on the success of Utz Mike's Hot Honey Chips and Utz Mike's Hot Honey Extra Hot Chips, this latest innovation brings the beloved sweet-heat flavor profile to Utz's iconic Cheese Balls format.
“Our partnership with Utz continues to grow in delicious new directions with the creation of Utz Cheese Pizza Mike’s Hot Honey Cheese Balls,” said Mike’s Hot Honey founder Mike Kurtz. "The flavor combination originated from our roots as a pizza topping, when we first discovered how perfectly our hot honey pairs with pizza. After the success of our potato chip and pretzel collaborations over the past two years, this was a natural evolution that creates a truly unique snacking experience.”
Consumers can find the new Utz Cheddar Cheese Balls barrel and the two new limited-time flavors at leading retailers nationwide, as well as online through utzsnacks.com and Amazon.
