Bacon Dessert Pizza: Strangely Delicious

Dessert pizza can be divisive: some people refuse to acknowledge any interpretation of pizza that doesn't feature cheese and tomato sauce, while others, myself included, will happily call baked dough covered with Nutella and berries just about anything you want me to.

Chain Reaction: Papa John's Apple Pie Pizza

After you eat pizza, do you eat dessert pizza? I've been seeing quite a few Nutella-and-pear pizza concoctions around town, and I have to say, I'm always tempted. Pizza dough is a pretty good base for a dessert—when it's done well.

'Slice' Poll: Dessert Pizza - Way or No Way?

You've already done the main show — either pizza or some other entrée — and now the restaurant you're eating at offers dessert pizza. It might be a bready crust topped with chocolate sauce and bananas, peanut butter, or marshmallows (à la Max Brenner). It might be in the form of a calzone (like at Toby's Public House in Brooklyn) or maybe it's a fruit pizza. Whatever configuration you've seen it in, it's now in the form of a poll here on Slice: Dessert pizza — way or no way? »

Dear Slice: Check Out My Birthday Pizza Cake!

Clicking in to the Slice inbox today, we've got ... Hi Adam, Avid pizza eater, and Slice reader here. I stumbled upon this secret birthday cake that my girlfriend was trying to hide above the refrigerator last night. Yes, today's my birthday (and, no, this isn't a shameless self-promotion). Instead of angel food or chocolate cake, I'll be eating pizza. Possibly for dinner, too. We're familiar with local pizza spots in San Francisco, but do you have a "must go" for a birthday celebration? Thanks for your help, and long live pepperoni. --Chris C....

Dessert Calzone at Toby's Public House

Photograph by Raphael In my Toby's dispatch earlier today, I didn't really go too in-depth with this thing, A.) because it's not pizza pizza, and B.) because it's dessert, but Toby's Public House has an interesting dessert calzone whose innards include ricotta and nutella.

Domino's Oreo Dessert Pizza

We just had the Domino's Oreo Dessert Pizza delivered here at the office. It's about as good as you think it would be. (How's that for damning something with faint praise?) The base layer is a thin crust that would be reminiscent of graham cracker if it weren't so bland, topped by a vanilla icing, with some Oreo crumbles applied atop in a swirled pattern. This 10-inch dessert pizza is $3.99 with any purchase, but it would be an unthinkable order addition even at $0.00. Related: Domino's Oreo Dessert Pizza commercial...
