48-Hour Double Fermented Ready Made Neapolitan Pizza Dough Balls (Box of 12)

Neapolitan-Style Pizza Dough, Handmade for Incredible Homemade Pizza

Take your homemade pizza to the next level with our 48-Hour Double Fermented Ready Made Neapolitan Pizza Dough Balls (Box of 12). Handmade in Poole, Dorset using premium Italian Tipo 00 flour, filtered water, fresh yeast, sea salt and extra virgin olive oil, our dough delivers authentic pizzeria-quality pizza every time.

Every dough ball is slowly double fermented over 48 hours, allowing flavour and texture to develop naturally. The result is a dough that's incredibly easy to stretch, beautifully light and airy, and capable of producing the soft, chewy crust with authentic leopard spotting that Neapolitan pizza is famous for.

Each dough ball is individually proofed before being instantly frozen, locking in freshness and making it simple to defrost only what you need. Whether you're cooking in an Ooni, Gozney, Ninja Woodfire, Witt, Cozze, Roccbox or a conventional home oven, Dough Dorks helps you create restaurant-quality pizza without the hassle.

What Makes Dough Dorks Different?

Making incredible pizza starts with exceptional dough.

Unlike mass-produced alternatives, our dough is never rushed. Every batch is carefully mixed before undergoing a slow 48-hour double fermentation that naturally develops flavour, improves texture and creates dough that's wonderfully soft and easy to stretch.

This traditional process gives you:

  • Rich, authentic flavour

  • Better oven spring

  • Light, airy crusts

  • Beautiful leopard spotting

  • Excellent elasticity

  • Consistent results every time

It's Neapolitan-style pizza dough made the way it should be.


Perfect For

Our Box of 12 pizza dough balls is ideal for:

  • Family pizza nights

  • Entertaining friends

  • Weekend pizza parties

  • Ooni pizza ovens

  • Gozney pizza ovens

  • Ninja Woodfire ovens

  • Home ovens with pizza stones

  • Wood-fired pizza ovens

  • Stocking your freezer

  • Anyone wanting authentic pizza dough delivered across the UK

Our dough performs brilliantly in almost every pizza oven.

Why Do We Ferment Our Dough for 48 Hours?

Great pizza simply can't be rushed.

Our slow 48-hour fermentation allows the dough to naturally mature, creating deeper flavour, improved elasticity and a lighter texture. The longer fermentation also makes the dough much easier to stretch and helps create the signature airy crust and leopard spotting that define Neapolitan-style pizza.


Handmade With Premium Italian Ingredients

Every Dough Dorks pizza dough ball is made using just five carefully selected ingredients.

  • Premium Italian Tipo 00 Flour

  • Filtered Water

  • Fresh Yeast

  • Sea Salt

  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Nothing unnecessary.

No shortcuts.

Just authentic Italian pizza dough made using traditional methods.


Frozen For Maximum Freshness

Every dough ball is individually proofed before being instantly frozen to lock in freshness.

Simply:

  1. Remove the dough balls you need.

  2. Defrost overnight in the fridge.

  3. Bring to room temperature.

  4. Stretch by hand.

  5. Add your favourite toppings.

  6. Bake and enjoy.

Fantastic dough balls.

Froze them on arrival, took out of the freezer 24 hours before use out in fridge, then 6 hours before use took them out of fridge.

Perfect from the first to the last.

Usually, like pancakes, the first one is always like a small child made it and a presentational disgrace - however these were so easy to stretch, top and bake I’ll defo be back for more.

Easily the best frozen dough I've used. Comes with sealable pots too. Definitely the most flavoursome and so easy to stretch and keeps it's shape with great leopard spotting. I've tried nearly all frozen dough brands. Ooni. Woodys great balls etc and nothing comes close to these. Was actually chat gpt that recommended these. Will definitely buy again.

Jason C.

Received. the dough on time packaging was good. The only problems I had, I think, were down to pilot error more practise needed in handling the dough have tried a few other doughs. This product I enjoyed very much.

Hi Jason, we're glad to hear you enjoyed the dough and that it arrived well-packaged! Practice makes perfect, and we're sure you'll become even better at handling it. Thanks for choosing Dough Dorks!

Nicolino C.

Ordered on Friday, arrived next day.
I’m Italian by birth and my Grandpa had a little pizza shop in Naples and he made epic pizzas. This dough is up there with the best, trust me, easy to handle and if you are new to pizza making just follow the instructions on the website and you won’t go far wrong.
The finished pizzas were amazing, good leoparding, with a nice ‘chew’ and utterly delicious.
Far far better than the others I have bought online, oh and the others don’t provide proofing pots unlike this which is amazing.
Make sure you buy the Fior di Latte too when ordering as it’s epic.
Nicolino

Wow! now that's a statement Nicolino, i'm truly honoured, It's my obsession that makes tasty! and yes that foir di latte is awesome, we only sell the best, other wise its's just not worth it ❤️

James M.

Brilliant. I like to make my own dough but you need to be prepared and work and stuff gets in the way. Used Ooni dough as a backup for a few years and it’s good. This is far better though. Softer, easier to stretch and tastes better. The crust comes out better too. Definitely buying again.

Now that looks a like a delicious pizza, I'm glad you like the dough James and welcome to the Dough Dorks fam

tessa c.

Best dough I have ever used. It felt like silk! My pizza making skills have much to be desired, but it didn't matter with this dough as it tasted so good regardless of how badly I messed up the stretching of it.

I was amazed how quickly it arrived - ordered at 3pm and it arrived the next day.

Someone phoned my from Dough Dorks as they thought there might have been an issue with the order (there wasn't) and the chap that rang me was so nice. It felt like a really good company to deal with.

Will definitely order again when our freezer stash has run out.

Hi Tessa! I'm thrilled to hear you loved the dough and had such a positive experience with our service. with a little more practice you will be a pizzaiolo in no time at all, Can't wait to see you again when your stash runs out. Happy pizza making! 😊

So, I got pizza oven ‘envy’ when I visited my brother recently… Bought one. I’ve ordered from three companies before the ‘dough dorks’. What a difference one company can make..! Great dough, 48 hour Neapolitan just wonderful. But now, gotta try the sourdough. Great service too…!
