Now it is time to get down to the business of sampling the new fresh pizza bases sent to me from Bakers Delight. I decided to use one of the plain bases to make this yummy sweet pizza.  I hope the picture and recipe inspires you to create some gourmet pizza's of your own.

Just in case you do get inspired don’t forget I have some $5 Bakers Delight vouchers to giveaways to readers.  I want to know what gourmet pizzas you will make with your base. Check out the details at the bottom of the page to enter.

The first thing I noticed about the bases is that they are quite thick.  I decided to make good use of this volume by adding some toppings that may perhaps have too much liquid for a regular pizza base to handle.

The bases have also been pre baked at Bakers Delight which allowed me to create this delicious Berry Pizza without fear of the fruit becoming over cooked or the base becoming soggy.

Ingredients:

1 Fresh Bakers Delight Pizza Base

1/4 cup Strawberry Jam

1/2 punnet chopped strawberries

1/2 cup frozen blueberries

1/2 cup frozen mixed berries

1/2 teaspoon caster sugar

Vanilla Mascarpone Topping:

100gm Mascarpone

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 Tablespoon icing sugar

Method:

Spread the pizza base with strawberry jam.

Add the fruit to the base ensuring an even coverage.

Sprinkle the caster sugar over the fruit.

Bake at 220 degrees for 7 minutes.

Meanwhile mix the Vanilla Mascarpone ingredients together and set aside.

Remove the pizza from the oven and drop teaspoons of the mascarpone onto the pizza.

This is the most deliciously fresh tasting pizza, it is loaded with fruit and makes a really quick “special” breakfast. I usually serve it with more fresh strawberries and mascarpone.

The Bakers Delight pizza base suited this pizza perfectly. I love that the pizza was ready for eating after only seven minutes cooking time.  This is a drastic reduction to the time it would usually take to cook pizza.

The fresh Bakers Delight Pizza Base lifted this pizza to a gourmet status. The fruit remained fresh and lush and the addition of the creamy vanilla mascarpone to the finished product was sublime.

If you would like to try a Bakers Delight Pizza base in the comfort of your own home I would you to share your pizza creation with me.  Use the comments section below to describe your perfect gourmet pizza.
