One Of The Best Grocery Frozen Supreme Pizzas Has A Rising Crust

Frozen pizza can be a welcome dinner solution for those days when you just don't have the energy to whip up a culinary masterpiece ... or it can be a disappointing, soggy disaster. With any pizza, if the dough isn't right, no amount of tasty toppings can save it. We dug into some of the four best and five worst frozen pizzas for supreme lovers, and, amongst that group, we found that it's hard to go wrong with Freschetta's Naturally Rising Crust Supreme Pizza.

Supreme pizzas are loaded with goodies like pepperoni, peppers, and sausage, but what sets Freschetta's product above the pack is its rising crust with a pillowy texture akin to a pan pizza. All the flavorful toppings aside, the perfectly raised crust is the star of the dish. Moreover, we found that it even comes out of the oven looking like the picture on the box, so when you are searching through dozens of frozen pizza brands in the grocery store, you already have a pretty good idea of what you will be getting with this pie.

Pizzas with a rising crust commonly take more time to bake than your average thin-crust pie, but we found that Freschetta's version takes a little longer than most. The company's competitor, DiGiorno, also makes a rising crust supreme pizza that needs 25 minutes in the oven to fully cook, but Freschetta's product can take up to 30 minutes before it can be enjoyed. Thin-crust pizzas sometimes take only half that time to bake, meaning you will naturally have to wait a bit longer if you want to have one of the best frozen pizzas the grocery store has to offer.

Freschetta's Naturally Rising Crust Supreme Pizza brings a touch of heat to the palate, but overall, the ingredients mesh well to create a balanced flavor that is worth the wait. It is the kind of pizza that probably won't produce any leftovers because folks will keep returning for another slice. Still, if any does make it past the initial feast, it is the perfect leftover pizza to upgrade your next salad by making some flavorful croutons out of what remains instead of buying them pre-made from the grocery store.
