Thanks to the nation’s most iconic pizzeria brand, Milano, the pineapple on pizza debate is no more, with the brand taking the controversial topping and adding it to everyone’s favourite: Dough Balls! That’s right, pineapple on pizza lovers and opposers alike will be fans of the must-try summer dish: Hawaiian Hot Dough Balls.

Launching today on the brand’s summer menu, Hawaiian Hot Dough Balls are a delicious new take on the iconic starter. Golden balls of dough are tossed in garlic butter, loaded with crispy pancetta and fresh pineapple pieces, and then drizzled with The Sauce Shop’s fiery Pineapple Habanero Hot Sauce.

Pizza fans will also find the following new additions on the summer menu:

Calabrian Feast Pizza: Packed with some serious heat, fans of spice will love this creation. Loaded with ‘nduja, Calabrese sausage, pepperoni and crispy pancetta, layered with two types of creamy mozzarella, Gran Milano cheese, plus an extra addition of chilli and finished with a drizzle of hot honey. 

Four Seasons Speciale: An icon reimagined – featuring four different quarters of delicious pizza toppings – from a quarter of baby plum tomatoes and basil pesto to pepperoni and Calabrese sausage, a quarter of mushroom, truffle oil and Gran Milano cheese, and finally, a section of anchovies, capers and olives. There’s something for everyone on this iconic pizza.

Buffalo Chicken Wings: Flavour-packed chicken wings, smothered in The Sauce Shop’s Buffalo Hot Sauce and served with a classic cool and creamy blue cheese dip – a little bit messy, but so worth it!

Birthday Cake Sundae: Continuing the brand’s 30th birthday celebrations, a party in a glass that consists of creamy vanilla gelato, raspberry coulis, whipped cream and celebratory sprinkles, adorned with a mini vanilla sponge cake, filled with buttercream and raspberry jam. The finishing touch: a sprinkle of gourmet Birthday Cake Popcorn, making this dessert the perfect finisher to a summer menu which really turns up the heat.

 What’s more, for pizza fans looking to go all out this summer, until 26th June they can also enjoy a Classic or Leggera pizza for just €1 when they purchase another. For more information, see https://www.milano.ie/terms-and-conditions/one-euro-pizza-jun
