Senza Margherita Pizza

Update: This pizza is no longer available at Coles.

I was beyond excited when I heard that Senza had created a pre-topped pizza. I already adore their base range of a plain pizza base and garlic and herb foccacia. Then in October they released their new foccacia flavours as well. Now you can pick up a pre-topped Margherita Pizza and for only $9 as well. Victoria. Note: This pizza is now available at Costco stores (Epping and Ringwood only in Melbourne), price, ingredient update and location coming soon.

Heading in to the ingredients, it contains sulphites and milk. It also may contain Soy due to a shared facility. Like their other products I do want to let you know that this has gluten free wheat starch in it. Which is fine for those with Coeliac Disease but not for those with a wheat allergy. The processing of the starch removes the gluten proteins. For your peace of mind the product does show the gluten not detected in the nutritional panel and is endorsed by Coeliac Australia. Other ingredients include maize starch/corn flour, buckwheat flour, rice flour, psyllium husk, yeast and garlic.

Preparing and cooking the pizza is simple and I can’t tell you how amazing it is to have a pre-topped pizza. You can just pop this pizza into a pre-heated oven at 200 degrees and bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Starting with what the pizza looks like, there is a lovely amount of toppings, tomatoes, basil pesto, mozzarella – just everything you need for a good margherita. If you’ve had the Senza pizza base you already know that this base is going to be awesome. It’s a bready base, not a thin and crispy. You can easily pick up a slice and hold it without it falling apart.

Senza Margherita Pizza Gluten Free

The flavours present on the Senza Margherita are great, a rich tomato flavour, gooey cheese and fresh basil pesto with a nice hit of garlic. You’ll get texture with the semi-dried tomatoes as well. It’s simple enough that you can add extra toppings if you’d like but flavourful enough to have on its own. The base isn’t chewy, the edge crisps up nicely so you can get a bit of crunch. There are no odd flavours and that price. I cannot get passed the price. You won’t get a safe gluten free pizza for $9 at many places. Of course you can compare it to the Dr Oetker Pizza but I feel like this definitely has more flavour.

I really hope that these turn up at other stores because I could easily pick these up every time Brody and I have a pizza night. This would be my go to pizza and that is no lie. If you are looking for more bases that you can top yourself, head to my pizza base review section.
