Knock, Knock. Who's There? Pizza Magic
TORONTO, May 6, 2023
/CNW/ - Pizza Hut Canada is taking a page out of the AI playbook by
turning the AI-generated pizza commercial Pepperoni Hug Spot
into real-life. On May 6, Pizza Hut
will transform its Bloor & Ossington location into the
restaurant featured in the viral commercial. For one day only,
pizza lovers can visit Pepperoni Hug Spot and experience the
just like family, but with more cheese tagline for
themselves.
For one-day only, Torontonians can
experience the best pizza of life at Pizza Hut's Pepperoni Hug
Spot.
Starting at 11 a.m. ET
Torontonians will have a limited opportunity to try Pizza Hut
Canada's AI-inspired pizza, featuring cheese, pepperoni, vegetables
and "secret things" – a 26-year-old ingredient signature to Pizza
Hut and the yet to be released Cup N' Crisp Pepperoni. Customers
who manage to get their hands on the best pizza of life will have
their tummies saying thank you, and their mouths say
mhmm.
"Our team at Pizza Hut loves seeing pizza fanatics come together
to share their love for all things pizza, and Pepperoni Hug Spot
was a great example of this," said Daniela
Di Vito, Associate Marketing Manager at Pizza Hut Canada.
"Seeing as AI often imitates the real world, why not imitate AI? We
saw a fun opportunity to tap into a cultural moment and reach a
younger audience."
On May 5, Pizza Hut Canada
transformed its social media channels into Pepperoni Hug Spot,
featuring a new logo and the slogan from the commercial. Tapping
into its quirky and playful side, the QSR brand looks forward to
giving new and life-long Pizza Hut fans a one-of-a-kind
experience.
Torontonians are invited to mark their calendars for
May 6 and head to Pizza Hut's
