Our Pizza Journey: Stefano & Annelies' Story

​

Welcome to Pizz'Arte, a haven where the love for food, family, and culture blend seamlessly. We are Stefano and Annelies, a Belgian-Italian couple whose hearts beat for the authentic flavors of Italian cuisine, especially the timeless art of pizza making.

​

Our story began in the warmth of our kitchen in Ghent, Belgium. Here, our shared passion for Italian culinary delights, particularly pizza, blossomed into an enthralling culinary quest. I, Stefano, am steeped in my rich Italian heritage, bringing to our table traditional recipes that echo through generations. Annelies, my better half, with her discerning palate and flair for refining tastes, completes our dynamic team.

​

The inception of Pizz'Arte was fueled by our eagerness to spread this fervor to a wider audience. We envisioned a space not just to circulate our treasured recipes but to delve into the profound history and culture that they embody. Pizz'Arte transcends being a mere collection of recipes; it's a chronicle of our culinary experiments, discoveries, and the shared moments of joy in our kitchen.

​

A pivotal moment in our journey was the discovery last year that Annelies is gluten and lactose intolerant. This revelation reshaped our mission and our kitchen. We now stride towards a more inclusive culinary approach, aiming to cater to diverse dietary needs. At Pizz'Arte, we are committed to creating and sharing recipes that are both gluten-free and lactose-free. We believe that pizza, in its essence, should be a joy accessible to everyone, irrespective of their dietary restrictions.

​

Our Mission:

Our mission at Pizz'Arte is twofold: Firstly, to demystify the art of pizza making, making it approachable and achievable for all. We aim to guide you through the nuances of authentic Italian pizza crafting with the right techniques and ingredients. Secondly, to ensure that this art is inclusive. We are dedicated to developing and sharing recipes that accommodate gluten and lactose intolerances. We strive to ensure that the delight of a delicious pizza is a universal experience, not limited by dietary needs.

​

Join us on this inclusive and flavorful journey. Whether you are a seasoned pizza enthusiast or venturing into this art for the first time, and regardless of your dietary requirements, there is a place for you here at Pizz'Arte.

 

Together, let's celebrate the diversity and inclusivity of Italian pizza! 🍕🌍🤗
