Bloomington Indiana Pizza Goes Vegan
Our Bloomington Indiana pizza is a favorite in the region, and now there’s another way to enjoy it. According to the World Animal Foundation, 6% of Americans are currently adhering to a vegan diet, while a whopping 39% want to explore more vegan-friendly options in order to rely less on animal proteins as of October 2023. We want to be the Bloomington Indiana pizza pick for everyone in the area, and this means taking care of all of your dietary needs.
Our vegan pizza is something we’ve poured our hearts and souls into at Bucceto’s. We and our owner Paul Heilbrunn have worked hard to create a vegan pizza that pays close attention to texture, flavor, versatility, and authenticity. With the feedback we’ve received regarding our vegan pizza, we know we’ve hit a home run!
Our vegan pizza starts with our traditional pizza crust. While a vegan pie may be ordered on a gluten-free crust by request, we must mention that our gluten-free crust does use honey in its recipe. The crust is the foundation of our pizza, and it gives you all of the structure and crunch you look for out of the perfect pie.
Topping the crust is our tomato sauce. Our traditional pizza crust uses a touch of parmesan cheese, so we opted for our rich, robust, and flavorful tomato to make our vegan pie something special. This sauce gives your vegan pie the perfect moisture and acidity to keep each bite in perfect balance.
Once the crust and sauce have been successfully laid, it’s time for the cheese. Our vegan cheese blend is modeled to have the same flavor and mouthfeel as our traditional mozzarella blend, but with none of the traditional dairy. Instead, nut-milk based cheeses are used to create a blend that is indistinguishable from standard cheese.
What would a great pizza be without toppings? At Bucceto’s we have a vegan sausage option to top your vegan pizza that features all of the spicy, smoky, and savory flavors you’d come to expect from traditional sausage. If you’d prefer veggie toppings, we have over a dozen to choose from to ensure each pie is customized just to your liking.
At Bucceto’s we want to cater to every customer who walks through our doors, gives us a call, or place an order online. Whether you currently adhere to a vegan diet or not, we can’t wait to hear what you think of our fresh vegan pies!
