Pizza Trends

From Detroit-style sensations to versatile Quik-Disks, these pans prove why LloydPans remains a trusted partner for pizza makers and bakers everywhere.

The LloydPans Innovation Team prides ourselves on creating high-quality, durable pizza pans that help elevate the pizza-making experience for our customers. Recently, we were honored to have our pans evaluated by Serious Eats, a trusted name in the world of food reviews. They tested a variety of pizza pans, and we’re thrilled to share the key criteria they used to assess our award-winning pans: Best Detroit-, Chicago- and Sicilian-Style Deep Dish Pans. 

The weather is chillier in some parts of the country, but the ovens are hot! Fall 2024 is shaping up to be an interesting one for the commercial pizza industry, with creativity in both ingredients and formats shaping up to shake things up. But—don’t rush to reinvent the pizza wheel completely—classic comforts are here to stay, too.

Making Yelp's Top 100 Pizza Spots in the Midwest list* is a dream for any pizzeria, a recognition that signifies not just popularity but a seal of quality and customer satisfaction. Many of the pizzerias that have earned this coveted spot share a common secret ingredient: LloydPans.

As we journey through 2024, which trends will redefine pizza culture? Will it be plant-based options, fusion flavors or cutting-edge technologies (like our newest Handheld-Style Pizza Pan?).

Instead of bringing home the bacon, PETA’s Top 10 Vegan Pizzas in the U.S. list honors mouthwatering plant-based pies that showcase how delicious and easy eating pizza the vegan way can be.

The results are in, and the LloydPans team has crowned the pizza pan winners of the year! The Detroit-Style 8x10x2.38-inch and 10x14x2.5-inch were the top two best sellers of 2023 for our Spokane Valley, Wash.-based team, followed closely by 2-, 14- and 16-inch Quik-Disks. We took a trip down 2023 memory lane to reflect on why our customers chose these pans as their favorites. 

This November, we’re thankful for pizza. And we don’t mean the standard pepperoni pie — oh, no. We’re thankful for the rich flavors that fall brings, from root vegetables to tart fruits, rich cheeses to cured meats. Read on for the LloydPans’ Innovation Team’s top five pizza ingredients of the season.

Happy National Pizza Month, pizzaiolos! It’s the best month of the year, and we can’t wait to see all of the amazing pies you create in October. We’ve been on the hunt for new tastes, trends and techniques from LloydPans customers. Join us in counting down some of our favorite inspirations.

Ah, breakfast — the most important meal of the day. At some point, we’ve all grabbed a piece of cold, leftover pizza for breakfast. But who says your customers can’t have a delicious, Italian culinary experience in the morning? After all, we have avocado toast and breakfast burritos. Why not try adding breakfast pizza to your repertoire?
