Food Blog: FB Rich’s Gluten Free Pizza Crust
A few weeks ago, Richie from Rich’s stopped by to give us some samples of their gluten free pizza crusts. Now, for the unenlightened, you may be thinking- Hey! Where’s the flour?! But the truth of this product is in a story Richie told us. There is a pizzeria that uses UPS every week to ship this product to his restaurant. The reason being- his business has doubled since bringing in and advertising the gluten free option. I’m not sure which is worse- families that stop at your pizza joint and don’t eat any pizza- or worse, those families who don’t stop at all because of a family member with Celiac. Gluten Free pizza crusts come in 10.5 “personal-pan” size and give everyone the opportunity and enjoyment to eat go out for pizza together. Probably the best feature of this product, is that it comes with a thin tin pan that stays with the pizza from freezer right to the pizza oven. This is key because it means that the crust is not accidentally being tainted by touching any flour-covered surfaces. The 10.5” comes in a 24- 7.75 oz pack. The item # is 16305.
Quandt’s will also be bringing in an 8” size in a few weeks, so keep your eyes peeled. This is available in a retail pack which is another segment of your business to tap into. People can buy their gluten free crusts from you to make at home on the nights they can’t make it up to the pizzeria.
Bonus product! This pizza crust can also be easily folded in half to make meat & cheese Panini sandwiches. As a girl who loves her flour, these even won me over! They were de-li-cious!
Wow- I love the panini idea! These would be a great option of people with celiac.
