THE
FOUNDATION OF OUR CREATION
PIZZAPAPALIS’®
HISTORY
Back in the ‘80s, we had an idea. We wanted
to create the best and freshest pizza known
worldwide. So, we traveled worldwide in
search of the finest ingredients the globe
has to offer. And that was the foundation
leading to the creation of PizzaPapalis®.
When big hair and leg warmers were in, we
hit the road. Our first mission - the
perfect crust. For that, we journeyed to a
little flourmill in Kansas. There, we
developed a formula exclusive for
PizzaPapalis® which gives our pizzas that
golden brown color, superior texture,
delicious flavor, and the ability to rise
evenly in order to sustain our generous
toppings. Our flour uses only the best
grains available. It whitens naturally.
There are no chemical, bleaching agents or
bromate.
But, not only does our crust taste good,
it's also good for you. PizzaPapalis'®
special blend of premium wheat has more
protein than other flours. Our dough is made
fresh each morning and always the same. This
means consistent, mouth watering baking
results for you.
That done, then we headed for the land of
all things dairy - Wisconsin. Cheese was on
our minds. Hence, we went straight to the
experts - Wisconsin Cheese Heads. The dairy
state has the strictest standards for making
cheese. All of PizzaPapalis’® pies are
loaded with premium Wisconsin cheese - the
best cows have to offer.
Next stop - Italy’s Agro Nocerine Sarnese
region. The warm terrain of the slopes, rich
soil, ample rainfall and hot summers make
this area a true cradle for PizzaPapalis®
tomatoes. These plump, pear-shaped fruits
have only two skins, versus a round tomato’s
five to seven skins. This gives our tomatoes
a more delicate and less acidic taste. Like
our crust, our tomatoes are also good for
you because they're packed full of vitamins.
Following our tomato victory, we remained in
Italy and made our way to Naples. That’s
where we found the world’s first true
pizzeria, Antica Pizzeria Port’Alba, which
opened in 1830 and is still in business.
Fittingly, Naples is where we discovered the
PizzaPapalis® secret sauce recipe. This
recipe dates back to 1830 and creates a
sauce that’s tangy, but doesn’t bite, and
definitely pleases the palette that we also
use in our pasta dishes, appetizers and
Papalis Pockets.
Of course, way before we even made our first
pie, we vowed to use only the finest meats
and vegetables, cut fresh daily to
generously top a wide variety of pizzas.
Make sure to indulge in our papalis Gourmet
pizza that we offer as a deep dish and thin
crust. Also make sure to enjoy our famous
spinach Special, with a three cheese blend a
definite “WOW” Factor.
Finally, after a long and successful
journey, we returned to Michigan with the
foundation for our soon-to-be pizza creation
in hand. The first PizzaPapalis® opened in
1986 in Detroit, and we’ve been going strong
ever since. There are now nine restaurants
throughout Michigan offering full menus
including superior soups, crispy salads,
decadent desserts such as our “Deep Dish
Chocolate Cookie”, and much more. There’s
something for everyone, and we want everyone
to fully enjoy his or her PizzaPapalis®
experience.
Thanks for visiting PizzaPapalis® today. Eat
hearty, have fun, and we hope to see you
again soon.
Ciao-
