This week's new food and beverage launches were all about the little things, with a new Krispy Juniors flavor popping up from Krispy Kreme and Domino's Pizza expanding its pizza slider offerings into Australia and New Zealand.
Here's a look at both of those, as well as three other products that caught our attention to be named among Food Dive's Flavors of the Week:
1. STELLA ARTOIS NOIRE
Company: AB InBev
Pierini Partners designed the look for AB InBev's new Stella Artois Noire offering in Argentina. The noticeably darker variant features the distinct flavor of coffee and Saaz hops.

2. BERRY GOOD LEMONADE AND GOODNESS GRAPENESS HONEST SPLASH
Company: Honest Tea
Honest Tea announced a new line of fruity beverages last week called Honest Splash. The drinks, which come in Berry Good Lemonade, Goodness Grapeness and Super Fruit Punch flavors contain 30-31% juice, according to a press release. Target and Target Cafés will have them first, with a wider retailer rollout planned for July.
3. PINEAPPLE FOUR LOKO
Company: Phusion Projects, LLC
The ink is still drying on Four Loko's new margarita flavor announcement, but Phusion Projects hasn't let that stop them from adding one more flavor to its malt beverage family. Pineapple Four Loko cans are scheduled to arrive in stores this March with all the sweetness and tartness that one would expect.

4. STRAWBERRY KRISPY JUNIORS
Company: Krispy Kreme
Krispy Kreme's little cake donut bags have a new seasonal flavor among them. In addition to Powdered Cake, Mini Cruller, Dipped Chocolate Cake varieties, grocery and convenience stores will also see Strawberry options appearing.

5. Domino's Pizza Sliders
Company: Domino's Pizza
Earlier this year, Pizza Hut announced its entrance into the pizza slider market. Domino's Pizza is there now as well—at least in India and Australia. And boy are they cute.
