2026-10-19

Halloween isn’t here yet, but pizza chains are already jumping on the chance to let their imaginations run wild. This year, they’re pushing the boundaries even further with creative designs as well as flavor pairings that defy all expectations. Another chain incorporated a beloved snack food through a crossover collaboration. With holiday exclusives and inventive new ways to eat, these rival brands hope their offerings will entice customers to try something new.

Seasonal volcano pizzas are back! This time, pastel purple taro oozes from the crater in the center, drizzled with rich cheese and coconut milk. This combo of sweet and savory will take your taste buds to the limit, just in time for Halloween.

If you treat it like a dessert, I think the flavor is pretty nice. But if it’s your main meal, it’s probably a bit too sweet.

Marketing expert
Offerings like this taro volcano pizza are meant to pique customers’ curiosity for quirky and outlandish flavors.

This other option is going for a bolder flavor. The crater in the middle is filled with a fiery red spicy cream sauce to give it a spooky Halloween vibe, topped with a cheesy spiderweb and juicy burger patties.

Another chain took a different tactic by launching a collaboration with the beloved Science Noodles brand of instant ramen. Customers can sprinkle the dried noodles over their pizza themselves, giving it an exciting textural clash.

The noodles give both an innovative touch, and a nostalgic nod to childhood. Whether customers will like it or not, I think time will give us the answer.

[[試吃民眾]]
“當做就是甜點類來吃，我覺得口味是蠻不錯的，但是如果當成正餐鹹食的話，可能就會有點偏甜。”

[[行銷專家王福闓]]
“像是這種以火山芋泥（披薩），比較強化的是消費者，對於獵奇口味的一個興趣。”

還有另一款，走的則是重口味路線，正中間火紅色的麻辣奶醬，講究萬聖節的恐怖氛圍，加上起司做成的蜘蛛網，搭配厚實漢堡排，讓過節氣氛一下濃了起來。
