Wegmans Amore Roman-Style Frozen Pizzas Come in Four Options

— May 7, 2025 — Lifestyle
The Wegmans Amore Roman-style frozen pizzas are a new addition to the brand's namesake Amore private label range that aim to deliver Italian-inspired flavor experiences this spring.

The pizzas are each crafted with a crust that's produced in Italy and made with a blend of wheat and rice flour before being fermented for 24-hours to achieve a light, airy texture. The pizzas come in four flavors including Cup & Char Uncured Pepperoni with Hot Honey, Cheese, Sausage & Caramelized Onion and Mushroom. The frozen pizzas are also launching alongside a two-pack of the crusts only to encourage consumers to create their own recipes from home.

The Wegmans Amore Roman-style frozen pizzas respond to increasing calls for private label food items with a takeout-inspired flavor and quality.
