Gourmet Ingredients Make Every Bite Extraordinary

“When our skilled chefs set out to craft an authentic Italian pizza, they honored the time-honored Neapolitan traditions with a singular focus on quality and freshness,” expressed Giorgio  Bianchetti, Chief Merchandising Officer of The Fresh Market. “Their passion has culminated in a pizza that not only meets but exceeds expectations. We’re thrilled to invite our valued guests to savor this exceptional Hot & Fresh pizza, meticulously prepared with the finest fresh ingredients, right here at The Fresh Market.”

The Fresh Market pizzas feature three primary ingredients that contribute to their unique taste and texture. The mozzarella cheese, sourced from Belgioioso, is celebrated for its exquisite texture and delicately clean flavor, a testament to the time-honored Italian cheesemaking traditions. The sauce, a crucial component, owes its rich and authentic flavor to the Italian tomatoes, grown in the fertile volcanic soils near Mt. Vesuvius, subtly seasoned with salt. Completing the foundation is the crust, crafted from the highly esteemed Neapolitan flour, which ensures a light yet crisply lavish base, reflecting centuries of Italian baking expertise.

Outperforming The Biggest Chain-By Taste, Not Just Words

The Fresh Market didn’t aim to create just another pizza; our goal was to craft a pizza that stood out for its delicious taste. However, we knew that simply talking about its quality and taste wouldn’t suffice. Therefore, we decided to put our pepperoni pizza to the ultimate test against the pepperoni pizza of the biggest  pizza chain in America in a blind taste test. The result? Our pepperoni pizza won with 61% of the blind taste test participants preferring the taste of The Fresh Market’s new Hot and Fresh pepperoni pizza to the other chain’s pepperoni pizza.*
