Sainsbury's Flame Baked Pizza Bases
What it is
These are pre-made pizza bases that have been baked in a flame-kissed oven. They are designed to provide a ready-to-use foundation for homemade pizzas. The bases are typically made from flour, water, yeast, and salt, with a slightly crisp texture from the flame baking process. They come in a convenient pack, making pizza night simpler and faster. This product is suitable for those following a plant-based diet.
How people cook with it
These versatile bases are perfect for creating quick and easy pizzas at home. They can be customized with a wide variety of toppings.
- Quick homemade pizzas
- Personalized pizza creations

To prepare, simply remove the pizza bases from their packaging. Spread your favorite pizza sauce evenly over the surface, leaving a small border for the crust. Add your chosen cheese and an assortment of toppings, such as vegetables, plant-based meats, or herbs. Place the assembled pizza onto a baking sheet or directly onto an oven rack. Bake in a preheated oven according to package directions until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Serve immediately.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to raw pizza dough, these flame-baked bases offer a pre-cooked element that significantly reduces preparation time. The flame baking process also imparts a unique, slightly charred flavor and a crispier texture than many standard pizza bases. They are firmer and easier to handle than unbaked dough.
Who it is for

How to keep the rest
Once opened, store any unused pizza bases in an airtight container or resealable bag in the refrigerator. Ensure they are kept cool to maintain their freshness and prevent them from drying out before their next use. Consume within a few days of opening.
