Spice That Packs a Punch
Heat is turning up in bold, new ways on pizza. "More and more establishments these days are adding an extra kick to their pies," Kumm said. "We're seeing a lot of drive among Gen-Z and Millennials who are really liking those spicy flavors." These fiery additions — think crunchy, garlicky chili crisp drizzled over mozzarella, or the smoky bite of Calabrian peppers — bring layers of flavor and intrigue to every slice.
Hot Honey's Sweet Sting
Hot honey is buzzing louder than ever, and it's no passing fad. "It's the ultimate balance of sweet and heat," Kumm said. This flavor clash is sparking obsession and turning ordinary slices into something unforgettable. It's even presenting itself in product form. "We were thrilled to introduce FONTANINI® Hot Honey Sliced Sausage at Pizza Expo this week," Kumm said. "Hot honey is a trend that's been around for a while, and we just knew we had to be a part of it, because it's not going away."
Regional Roots Run Deep
Pizza's regional renaissance is in full swing, with varieties like Detroit-style, "Grandma" style and tavern pies entering the spotlight. "These aren't just recipes, they're stories," Moore said. Detroit-style pizza, with its thick, caramelized edges, is a canvas for toppings of all forms and flavors. Grandma-style pizza channels old-school
Mortadella Madness
Mortadella is having a moment in the pizza scene, inspired in part by Anthony Bourdain's famous five-ingredient sandwich. Studded with pistachios and delectably crispy when cooked, mortadella is popping up on artisanal pies everywhere. Said Moore: "As fine dining chefs started picking up on this trend, everyone decided, 'Hey, mortadella is pretty good. Let's use it on pizza, too.'" This pistachio-flecked Italian charcuterie brings a lush texture and a whisper of spice that is turning heads in pizzerias across the country.
Comfort Food Crossovers
Pizza is getting cozy with comfort-food classics. Imagine corned beef and sauerkraut melded with Swiss — Reuben pizza, anyone? Whether it's crispy potato slices paired with rosemary, or juicy meatballs nestled in marinara, these hearty and familiar mashups are making pizza the ultimate comfort zone. "Nostalgia is really big nowadays," Moore said. "We see it in pop culture. There's a yearning for that kind of nostalgia right now, and that's where these comfort foods are really coming into play, and that certainly includes pizza."
