Chilled pizza

With more and more people demanding authentic pizzas, the chilled pizza market is growing year on year.

We currently make retailer own brand chilled pizzas exclusively for Tesco, with our Tuscan hand stretched pizza being just one example of their ‘Finest’ range.

Chilled pizza

Authentic pizza

We have a passion for getting every last detail right, down to the not-so-humble tomato. That’s why we headed off to a traditional Italian family run factory in Tuscany to find out how to make an authentic pizza base. There, they use fine Italian flour and extra virgin oil to create a ciabatta-style base which is stretched by hand, following traditional artisan methods.

Then we concentrated on getting the toppings right. We source all our fresh ingredients from Italy, using Buffalo mozzarella, local Italian meats like prosciutto and pancetta, and Rustica tomatoes. We also keep our fingers on the pulse through regular contact with our local suppliers ensuring that our product development reflects the latest food trends.
