FAQs

Feta can go on pizza either before or after baking, it just depends on the texture and flavour you're after. Adding it before baking allows it to soften and warm through, blending gently with the other toppings for a milder, more integrated flavour. If you prefer a fresher, tangier bite, sprinkle it on just after the pizza comes out of the oven. It adds a pop of brightness and keeps its crumbly texture.

Pumpkin pizza is all about balance, so the cheese you choose really matters. Mozzarella melts smoothly and holds everything together. Feta and goat cheese add creamy, salty contrast to sweet pumpkin. For extra richness, top with ricotta or shaved parmesan after baking.

Feta on pizza doesn’t melt in the stretchy, gooey way that mozzarella does, but it does soften beautifully in the oven. It holds its shape while becoming warm and creamy, adding little pockets of savoury goodness to each bite. If you want that melty texture alongside the crumbly feta, try using it with a cheese like mozzarella, provolone or even a touch of cheddar. You’ll get the best of both textures in every slice.
