sweet pizzas...
26 Answers
why is there no such thing as sweet pizzas?
to has any one ever tried making one?
i would suggest, the usual dough base, covered with a caramel/toffee sauce or perhaps jam, instead of tomato sauce
top that with fruit and nuts, or fudge, brownie pieces, instead of meat and veg,
then sprinkle with grated chocolate instead of cheese.
(instead of a 4 cheese, you could have white, milk and dark choc and a caramac, lol)
and perhaps sprinkle with icing sugar (or hundreds and thousands lol) instead of herbs
you could add cream cheese
or once cooked you could top with ordinary cream perhaps
you could even add sweet chilli sauce
what do you reckon? hit or miss?
anyone brave enough to try one?

I'm thinking:
Nutella instead of tomato puree
Crushed hazelnutes, jelly tots, broken Flakes, hundreds and thousands, raisins and melted white choc

Oh yuck!!! and I thought pizza with pineapple was gross...sorry folks but I would want to respect the culinary traditions of a country rather than mess about with them. I mean....what if the japanese or other asian peoples took a traditional british food-say roast beef-and decided to tart it up with ingredients that didn't 'work'...that changed the whole character of the dish...it just wouldn't 'be' roast beef anymore.Sorry if I am rabbiting on a bit but it is something that bugs me.
Joko: I've looked at your description of a 'sweet pizza' and decided that it comes very close to some 'cheesecakes' that I've tried. (There seems to be a point where the two culinary ideas meet).
Pastafreak: I'm pleased to see that you believe in 'respecting culinary traditions'. I hope, however, that you don't do so like a friend of mine. He insists on having only 'genuine Italian' ingredients on his pizzas but he then asks for 'deep pan' pizza. I can't get him to understand that he'd get blank looks (or possibly thrown out!) if he asked for that in my favourite restaurant in Genoa ;-)
However, the idea of a 'sweet pizza' is not in conflict with traditional Italian food. 'Schiacciata' tastes great!

Crostata is one of them, simple to make and absolutely divine! This is a raspberry crostata but there are many variations, some including slices or chunks of fruits.
