The history of Neapolitan pizza did not begin in royal palaces, but in the bustling, narrow streets of Naples.
For the local workers, known as lazzaroni, time was precious and money was scarce. The need for something tasty, filling, and quick to eat – a simple dough topped with lard, garlic, and salt – gave birth to modern Neapolitan pizza.
King Umberto I and Queen Margherita of Savoy visit Naples. Curious to try the food everyone is talking about, the queen invites the city’s most famous pizzaiolo – Raffaele Esposito.
He prepares a brilliant combination that reflects the colors of the Italian flag:
Red: juicy San Marzano tomatoes; White: fresh mozzarella; Green: fragrant fresh basil.
Основана през 1984 г. в сърцето на Неапол, Асоциацията за истинска неаполитанска пица си поставя за цел една единствена мисия:
Да брани и защитава истинската неаполитанска пица от масовото производство и компромисите с качеството.
The European Union has officially registered Neapolitan pizza as a product with TSG (Traditional Speciality Guaranteed) certification, which protects the recipe and preparation method regardless of where in the world it is made.
The Art of the Neapolitan Pizza Maker (L’Arte dei Pizzaiuoli Napoletani) has been inscribed on UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
This traditional, artisanal technique has ensured the richness and quality of Neapolitan pizza-making over the centuries.
As proud holders of an AVPN certificate, we bring the authentic taste of Naples to Sofia. Behind this certificate lies a promise of integrity.
When we became part of the AVPN family, we made a commitment not to rush, not to compromise quality for easier alternatives, and to keep the craft pure.
