Pizza is one of my favorite foods. I used to think it deserved its own food group, and love the endless possibilities in crust texture and thickness, and the variety of potential toppings. There are many times chefs create dishes that are truly works of art. Pizza hasn’t typically been one of those. I’ve seen creative crust shapes, architectural designs, and silhouettes created with toppings. Nothing; however, as stunningly beautiful as fruit pizza, like this Fruit Pizza Cheesecake Tart.

A Visual Culinary Masterpiece

For you pizza purists, just give it a chance. A perfect way to start your day, a stunning centerpiece for an event, and a surefire to make you the envy of a summer gathering. Your creativity with fruit pizza is limited only by your imagination, sense of adventure and the in-season fruits available in your market.

The chefs at Huron House, an award-winning 14-room luxury bed and breakfast on the beach of Lake Huron, have created one of the most beautiful fruit pizzas I’ve seen. I envision watching the sun rise over Lake Huron in the summertime, enjoying a slice with a cup of coffee or hot tea. Huron House bills itself as a couples bed-and-breakfast retreat, where luxurious treatment is the rule of the day.
