2020 Update! They initially wedged into a small niche for the food allergy community, but Daiya Dairy Free Frozen Pizzas are now taking a bigger slice of the pie. The rapid growth in demand for gluten-free and plant-based options has pulled this product line into nearly every supermarket in America. Consequently, Daiya is now one of the market leaders in frozen pizzas, battling the big boys, like Digiorno and California Pizza Kitchen.
Most dairy-free frozen pizza brands have been scrapped after just a few years, but Daiya continues to rise with more options, increased availability, and new recipes. This year, they’ve upgraded the entire line of Daiya Dairy Free Frozen Pizzas by swapping with their Cutting Board Cheeze Shreds. The Cutting Board Shreds have a better melt than their classic line, and are the varieties most used by restaurants.
Daiya Dairy Free Frozen Pizzas Roll Out with a New Cheesy Recipe
Nearly every year, Daiya tosses a new variety into the mix, or they undergo some type of reformulation. But they always stay loyal to vegan, gluten-free, and food allergic customers. The information below includes their latest line up and their most recent recipe with the Cutting Board Shreds.

What Others Are Saying ...
Worst. Pizza. Ever.
I managed to choke down two pieces of this awful excuse for a pizza for the simple reason that there was nothing else in the house to eat. The crust, as others have noted, was exactly like cardboard, the cheese was like slime and the veg had no flavour whatsoever.
Delicious
I loved the pizza. The cheese just tastes a little more like ranch instead of cheese.
The crust seemed to cook well while the faux cheese didn't
Contrary to what a number of people said, I enjoyed the crust, but that was likely because I removed it from the oven after the minimum recommended time.
The new cheese like substance wasn’t awful tasting, but the consistency was, almost triggering a gag reflex as this ‘slime’ slid down my throat.
I really enjoy the taste and consistency of their cheddar strings in my omelettes and on Yves burgers, but this new cheese replacement is not an improvement at all.
Horrible texture, beyond bland
Honestly, I wanted this to be good SO BAD but I think it’s really important for people to know that it was bad to the point that I am legit shook that a company decided it was a good idea to sell these. Even after cooking the full 25 minutes, as recommended in other reviews, the bottom of the crust is almost impenetrably crisp while the inside is a DISGUSTING slimy, goo. Not one component of this pizza has any flavor, not even the sauce.
Awfully bad
Even after an hour in the oven the pasty inside and crispy outside was void of flavour and the texture was inedible
Pizza
these are the worst pizzas I have eaten and must of been some cross contamination from the flaxseed as I got very sick and i have Celiac. Threw more than half of it away. crust like cardboard
Loved it
I’ve been gluten, dairy and egg free for about 5 years, and I’ve tried so many gf pizzas, they were all terrible And then I found Daiya and I must say this is the best I’ve found. I can’t believe that anyone who has tried other gf and dairy free pizzas doesn’t like it. On another note, I’ve tried other Daiya products and love all of them.
Horrible
I would have given a zero.
Never buy it again.
Worst pizza I have ever eaten. Crust is like cardboard. Too much cheese and…. meat when opening pkg is floating on the top and easily lost. I took off the coating and left a little sauce, but u had better have good teeth when eating the crust. Never buy it again.
Empty calories
I’m a long-time vegan, haven’t cared about trying the various cheeses or substitutes, and don’t care about pizza, but wanted to try something different. The “cheese” on this actually isn’t bad. The crust makes cardboard sound appealing. (Why does everybody hate gluten? It’s kept humankind alive for thousands of years! I hate dietary fads.) But seriously, this thing has absolutely no nutritional value. It is purely empty calories, and truckloads of them. If you’re going to go for empty calories, get some good dark chocolate and at least enjoy yourself.

I am newly having to eat gluten free. Tried the Daiya Meatless meat Lover’s Pizza. It was awful. The sausage crumbles were little rocks. The crust was cardboard. I had to throw it out. Not a good experience!
I’m gluten free and my husband brought this pizza home instead of my usual cauliflower crust pizza. I had my mouth set on pizza and what a disappointment. This has to have been the worst pizza I have ever had – anytime anyplace. The crust was hard as a rock, and tasteless and the topping (pseudo cheese and tomato sauce) was awful. It tasted like pure tomato sauce on top of cardboard. I had added ham, mushrooms, peppers and tomatoes and mozzarella cheese to it but it didn’t help one bit because the sauce was bitter. I scraped the veggies I had added off it and ate them, threw the pizza away. Ugh!
I wish I read these comments before I bought the pizza. The cardboard box that came with it was probably more edible
I tried your frozen pizza, never again. It is he worst pizza I ever had. I truly believe your crust is made from cardboard. The topping was horrible. Your company should be ashamed to sell this product.
You need to contact Daiya directly. This is a third party review that is unbiased and unpaid (we bought their pizza ourselves!). We are in no way affiliated with Daiya Foods. Please contact the company directly if you have a complaint.
Don’t buy this pizza. It is the worst. After tasting it I had to throw it out. Horrible, the crust must be made with cardboard.
I’m gonna go against the grain (see what I did there?) and say…I kinda dig it. Just had my first experience with a pizza of this type and I think it’s nice to have this option. I rather liked the buttery taste of whatever the non cheese item I was eating. I’d purchase this again to have in the freezer for those days when things just don’t work out to make a real dinner.
Haha, I love your feedback Tammy – thanks for sharing!
I prefer Flatbread Pizza Co Vegan Harvest…sprinkle on some red pepper flakes and it’s delicious.
Whoops, it’s called American Flatbread.
I get one of these pizzas about once a year, which is apparently how long it takes me to forget how awful it is. Got one today after getting home from a trip and not having much to cook. The crust, if it can even be called crust, ruins the entire pizza. There’s just nothing to it, and it tastes like what I can only imagine cardboard tastes like. I’ve tried baking it too long, too short, exactly what the directions recommend, and it doesn’t seem to matter. It comes out the same every time – bendy and chewy, in all of the ways you don’t want your food to reflect those words. Also, now that I’ve been eating nut cheese, I forgot how much the coagulated oil version of cheese grosses me out and gives me a tummy ache. I think I’m going to put a piece of the box on my fridge and write “never again!” on it so I’ll have a reminder. I miss pizza as much as the next dairy free person, but putting myself through another one of these is some sort of twisted self-torture.
Hi Sarah, thanks for sharing your very honest review!
I think you should work on your oven techniques. If you convection cook it at 9 minutes they turn out great. And with no pan under it. Just a catch pan one rack down beneath it. Then the crust won’t be hard as a rock. I also add finally chopped red bell peppers on top. It’s Yum Yum.
We tired the Daiya pizza, and it was probably to grossest thing gluten-free that I have had to date. Even our dog spit the crust out. Would definitely never recommend this pizza.
Your note about the dog made me giggle Sean. Thanks for sharing your family review!
I love these! they’re so good. I always eat the whole pizza!
Pretty good.. I’m eating the Supreme right now.. not bad at all!
These are SO GOOD
I missed pizza so much after cutting out dairy since having my daughter. I tried this and expected the worst. But it was amazing!!! I had the cheese lovers. So good. Will definitely continue buying
i think it should be pointed out that they taste like… make that worse than… a $2 frozen pizza. I’m not a fan of cheese substitutes but regardless of that the rest of the this pizza was just awful… the sauce is not noticeable and the crust is like cardboard. Amy’s pizzas are MUCH better.
Glad there is another that suits your tastes Jeff and thanks for sharing your own review!
I hate to leave a bad review for an allergy / cruelty free company since I believe in the mission, but I tend to agree with you Jeff. I tried the supreme and was turned off by the creamy cheese texture – I’ll take Amy’s “no cheese” pizza over this any day!
Thank you for sharing your honest opinion Amber!
