Frydough and Sugar is an Italian sweet desert known as Pizze Fritte. It is light, airy and delicious. It is the perfect street strolling food. The essence of a true comfort food. As they say in Italian, “Piu’ mangi e piu’ ne vuoi.” The more you eat the more you want. Buon Appetito.
So how did pizza fritta come to be? According to Roads & Kingdoms, its origins stretch back to the 16th century. The story goes that the wives of Neapolitan piemen would fry the leftover scraps of dough that their husbands weren’t using and sell them to people on the street.
Our signature pizze fritte is 18 inches long, covered in delicious sugar and always served warm.
From the 16th century in Naples, Italy, to the kitchen of my Nonna, we are bringing her’s homemade Pizze Fritte to the west coast with our own twist.
