This fall, Barilla®, a pasta maker, expanded its line of Pesto sauces with three new varieties that promise to inspire creativity in the kitchen. Available first and exclusively at Kroger, these Pesto flavors are crafted with the same dedication to quality and precision that defines Barilla.

The three newest additions to Barilla's Pesto lineup offer a symphony of deep, robust flavors. Each variety offers a burst of authentic Italian taste that complements a diverse array of dishes, from al dente pasta and paninis to crostini, pizza, poultry, seafood and beyond. Barilla Pesto is ready to enjoy, with no need to heat or cook, to add an indulgent twist to any meal. The new varieties complement Barilla's Pesto portfolio, which also includes Rustic Basil and Creamy Genovese.

- Creamy Tomato Pesto: A smooth blend of sun-ripened tomatoes, balsamic vinegar and Grana Padano and Pecorino Romano cheeses, delivering a taste of Italy that enriches both pasta and breads.
- Sweet and Spicy Pepper Pesto: A velvety mixture of freshly grated Italian cheeses, red peppers and chili peppers produces a sweet, mild heat that will leave your tastebuds wanting more.
- Vegan Pesto: A creamy, yet surprisingly vegan option crafted from 100% Italian basil with no cheese, boasting vibrant flavor and a smooth texture that is perfect for those with dietary preferences or sensitivities.

These pesto flavors will first be available in October exclusively at Kroger stores nationwide, with wider distribution at major retailers rolling out in 2025, for a SRP of $3.99.
