Hey, Chefs and Food Industry Pros!

Let’s settle a kitchen debate—flatbread or pizza? 🤔 Both are delicious, versatile, and beloved by customers, but each plays a unique role on your menu. Whether you’re slinging artisanal pies or crafting gourmet small plates, knowing when to use flatbread and when to go full pizza mode can help boost sales, streamline service, and keep your menu fresh.

At ItalCrust, we’re all about making your life easier with our premium frozen pizza crusts and flatbreads—handcrafted, fermented for flavor, and designed to bring consistency and quality to your kitchen. So, let’s break it down!


When to Use Flatbread 🥖✨

Flatbreads are the ultimate chameleon—they fit into every part of your menu, from appetizers to entrees, even desserts. They’re lighter than pizza, crispier, and perfect for bold, creative toppings.

🔹 Best for: Small plates, bar menus, shareable appetizers, brunch specials, upscale casual dining.

🔹 Why You Need It:
✅ Speed & Simplicity – Our ItalCrust Flatbreads are prepped and ready for action. Just add toppings, bake, and serve in minutes.
✅ Creative Freedom – From smoked salmon & crème fraîche to truffle mushroom & goat cheese, flatbreads let you get fancy without overwhelming the crust.
✅ High-Profit Margin – With smaller portions and premium toppings, flatbreads offer an elevated experience that justifies a higher price point.

đź’ˇ Menu Idea:
🧀 Prosciutto & Fig Flatbread – ItalCrust flatbread + fig jam + gorgonzola + arugula + balsamic glaze.

Boom. Instant best-seller.


When to Use Pizza 🍕🔥

Pizza is a crowd-pleaser—filling, familiar, and always a menu MVP. A great crust is everything, and our ItalCrust frozen pizza crusts deliver that wood-fired taste with a light, airy texture and a crispy bite.

🔹 Best for: Traditional pizzerias, casual dining, family-friendly spots, delivery & takeout.

🔹 Why You Need It:
✅ Signature Dish Potential – Build a unique, crave-worthy pizza that defines your brand.
✅ Versatility – Pizza works for lunch, dinner, late-night bites, catering—you name it.
✅ Customer Loyalty – A standout pizza keeps people coming back. Pair it with great drinks, and you’ve got a recipe for success.

đź’ˇ Menu Idea:
🔥 Spicy Soppressata Pizza – ItalCrust pizza crust + San Marzano tomato sauce + mozzarella + soppressata + hot honey drizzle.

Simple. Spicy. Profitable.


Why Not Both? The Power of a Dual Menu

Here’s the real secret: you don’t have to choose. A balanced menu featuring both flatbreads and pizzas gives you:

✅ More variety – Appeal to casual diners (pizza) and foodies (flatbreads) alike.
✅ Daypart flexibility – Pizza for dinner & takeout, flatbreads for lunch & happy hour.
✅ Upselling opportunities – Flatbreads pair perfectly with wine & craft cocktails.

And the best part? ItalCrust’s frozen crusts and flatbreads mean zero dough-making stress—just premium, authentic Italian quality, ready to top and serve.
