48-Hour Double Fermented Neapolitan Pizza Dough Balls (Box of 20)
Authentic Neapolitan Pizza Dough, Made the Traditional Way
If you're looking for authentic Neapolitan pizza dough balls that deliver pizzeria-quality results at home, you've found them.
Our 48-hour double fermented pizza dough balls are handmade in Dorset using premium Italian Tipo 00 flour, filtered water, fresh yeast, sea salt and olive oil. Every batch is slowly fermented over two days to develop incredible flavour, improve texture and create the light, airy crust that defines authentic Neapolitan pizza.
Unlike supermarket pizza dough, every Dough Dorks dough ball is individually proofed before being snap frozen, locking in freshness and making each one incredibly easy to defrost, stretch and bake.
Whether you're cooking in an Ooni, Gozney, Ninja Woodfire, Witt, Cozze or a conventional home oven, our dough delivers consistently delicious pizzas with beautifully risen crusts and authentic leopard spotting.
