This Halloween season, Tombstone is adding another entry to the long list of unconventional pizza toppings: candy corn.
Tombstone, established in 1962, described the candy corn-topped frozen pie as a "deliciously daring trick-or-treat combo."
Tombstone is releasing two flavor options, with one being the candy corn pizza with pepperoni. Per a release, the pizza topped with "zesty tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese and classic pepperoni [gets] finished with a touch of Halloween magic via candy corn."
The other is a five-cheese pizza with candy corn sprinkled on top, creating "a creamy combination of five premium cheeses [that's] perfectly complemented by candy corn's surprising sweetness."
Beginning Friday, Oct. 2, customers can get their hands on these specialty pizzas by purchasing a pizza kit. Each kit comes complete with one pizza, three packets of candy corn and preparation instructions.
The candy corn pizzas are available exclusively online at tombstone.com/candycornpizza for $1.31, with three limited drops at 2 p.m. ET on Oct. 2, 9 and 23.
Internet Reacts to Candy Corn Pizza
Last year, candy corn was voted the worst candy in the CandyStore.com annual survey.
Tombstone's decision to drape its pizza pies in candy corn has been met with some resistance online.
