Discover a Welsh Classic Reimagined: The Caerphilly Melt
At Welsh Italian Pizza Co., we love celebrating local flavours, and no Welsh ingredient is more iconic than Caerphilly cheese. That’s why we’ve created the Caerphilly Melt, a pizza that pays tribute to one of Wales’ most famous exports while giving it an Italian twist.
A Rich, Creamy Delight
The star of the Caerphilly Melt is, of course, the rich, crumbly Caerphilly cheese. Known for its mild yet tangy flavour, this cheese melts beautifully on our finely chopped tomato base and Fior di Latte mozzarella. The creamy cheese pairs perfectly with our slow-cooked pulled pork, bringing a satisfying, meaty depth to each bite. The caramelised onions add sweetness, while fresh apple slices offer a refreshing contrast, giving this pizza a unique balance of flavours.
A Fusion of Welsh and Italian Culinary Traditions
Caerphilly is steeped in history, and we wanted to honour that with a pizza that feels both modern and rooted in tradition. The combination of Fior di Latte mozzarella with Caerphilly cheese creates a creamy, balanced texture, while the apple slices give a nod to the orchards of Wales. The tender, flavourful pulled pork is slow-cooked to perfection, offering a hint of smokiness that complements the tangy cheese.
Our Neapolitan-style dough, light and airy with a crisp, golden crust, forms the base for these flavours. This pizza is a true fusion of Welsh comfort and Italian craftsmanship, making it the perfect dish for anyone who loves bold flavours and artisanal pizzas.
Perfect for Pop-Ups or Private Events
You can try the Caerphilly Melt at one of our pop-up events, where it’s often a fan favourite. However, since our specials rotate, it might not always be available—making it all the more special when it is! But don’t worry, if you’re craving this Welsh-Italian delight for a private event, wedding, or party, you can always book us for private catering through our main website.
Our pizza van brings the flavours of Welsh and Italian cuisine to any occasion, ensuring that your event will be memorable and full of flavour.
Why the Caerphilly Melt is a Must-Try
The beauty of the Caerphilly Melt lies in its simplicity. We’ve taken classic Welsh ingredients and given them an Italian twist, resulting in a pizza that’s both familiar and exciting. The mix of pulled pork, Caerphilly cheese, caramelised onions, and fresh apple slices creates a delicious blend of sweet, savoury, and tangy flavours. Whether you’re a Caerphilly native or simply a fan of Welsh cuisine, this pizza is sure to impress.
