The Gustavo Gusto frozen pizzas
Under the Gustavo Gusto brand there are currently 16 different types of premium frozen pizzas in two range sizes. Eleven large Gustavo Gusto frozen pizzas with a diameter of approx. 30 cm (including two large special editions and a vegan pizza) as well as five slightly smaller Extra Airy pizzas with a diameter of around 24 cm.
From the very beginning, Gustavo Gusto has set itself the goal of revolutionizing frozen pizza. The Gustavo Gusto frozen pizza should no longer be distinguishable from a real, very good restaurant pizza. That’s why the pizzas are made as authentically as possible according to Italian recipes. Each individual pizza dough is allowed to mature naturally for an extra long time and is carefully spread out by hand. The tomato sauce is made fresh daily on site and according to our own recipe. No artificial raising agents, no artificial flavors, no flavor enhancers, no industrial sugar and no palm oil are used.
