There are duos, and then there are iconic duos, the latest on everyone’s lips being PizzaExpress’ brand-new American Hot Dough Balls – landing in restaurants from today as part of its new Autumn menu.

Inspired by the nation’s favourite pizza*, PizzaExpress’ American Hot Dough Balls are hotter than the peppers in Nonna’s kitchen – loaded with rich Italian tomato sauce and paprika-spiced sausage, topped with hot green peppers and flavourful Gran Milano cheese – a taste explosion that brings two of the brand’s most popular menu items together for the very first time.

Along with this iconic innovation, PizzaExpress’ new Autumn menu features a wide range of new dishes for fans, inspired by the tastes of Italian-America; for the meat-lover, the brand has launched its new Meatball Italiano Romana – a delicious combination of flavoursome beef meatballs, spicy beef, tomato, garlic, mozzarella and red onion, finished with a dash of chilli oil and Gran Milano cheese on a crispy Romana base. It’s pizza, it’s meatballs. That’s Amore!

The Autumn menu will also see the arrival of an irresistible Ultimate Chocolate Fudge Cake, which is inspired by the brand’s iconic black and white striped t-shirts. The new dessert combines six indulgent layers of chocolate sponge with heavenly buttercream and rich, dark chocolate fudge icing. One slice, and you’ll be hooked!
