For Valentine’s Day, there are many played-out traditions, including buying chocolates, balloons, and flowers for a loved one. But what about incorporating pizza to spice things up? Two New York City–based pizzerias have been doing just that — making special edition pizzas for Valentine’s Day. in Brooklyn has made the Ti Amo, a sweet pizza with a Nutella base that’s in the shape of a heart and includes chocolate-covered strawberries, marshmallows, and sprinkles.
The Ti Amo pizza was created by Jack in 2008 when he was in college while working at his parents’ pizza spot. He wanted to do something special for Valentine’s Day and was inspired to make a sweet pie. Originally the Ti Amo pizza was circular, but as the holiday neared, Jack decided to make it heart-shaped. Jack, Sal, and Anthony are innovative in the kitchen and love listening to customers bring new ideas in for their pizzas.
Jose Mencho, manager of Maspeth Pizzeria, remarked how excited people get when they see their heart-shaped pizza. “The people love it — it’s something special for this time [of the year].” In addition to the cheese pizza, Maspeth Pizzeria, like Tony’s, offers many customized options, including chocolate, bananas, and of course, Nutella. Mencho adds, “We make everybody happy.”
