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.

Pleasantly Surprised
I had no idea what to expect when trying the Daiya Meatless Pepperoni Pizza. I have been trying to stick to dairy-free, so decided to give it a whirl. I was pleasantly surprised at the flavor and texture of this pizza. Granted it was not anywhere as good as a normal pizza, it reminded me of the pizza at school as a kid. However in a good way. No complaints! Give it a try. You might like it too!
WOW
Having many food allergies and a dairy intolerance I thought my days of comfort food pizza was over. Thanks Daiya Foods. And the plant based meat not bad either.
HORRIBLE
I’ve been GF for over 15 years b/c of Celiac desase. Hands down the WORST GF PIZZA I have ever had!!
Only two bites
I have tried several vegan foods, most taste okay to good, but Daiya pizza is not edible. I ate one bite and almost gagged, feeling like slimy upchuck was under the toppings. Tried a second bite and it was worse. I threw it away and settled for good ole vegan chicken nuggets. I wouldn’t serve this pizza to anyone or animal, it is sickening. Also had to dig, press, and plow to cut through the crust with a very sharp pizza cutter. Imagine trying to bite through it.
Double crust?
The crust was too thick so I am wondering if mine was a manufacturing error and I gor a souble crust?
A pizza that has a long long way to go.
I’ll keep this short, The “thin crust” gluten-free cheese lovers pizza was one of the worst pizzas ever. It has much to be desired and a lot to work out the ingredient list is troubling. Bought the pizza by accident gave it a try will not make same accident twice. Not thin crust, not melting cheese Like at all!! Don’t waste your money. Sorry Daiya but you need to know.
Hate the liquid cheese
Out of all the gluten free pizzas I have eaten Daiya has to be the worst. The crust and sauce are mediocre at best. The cheese is disgusting. It has the texture of mayonnaise mixed with cooking oil which I found out that the cheese is made of food starch and oil. I am a pizza lover..I will eat almost any pizza. I ate one piece of the Daiya pizza and put the rest went in the trash. It truly is one of the worst things I have ever ate. I don’t know how they stay in business.
terrible
crust is cardboard-pizza awful…
For People Who Don't Remember Pizza
It tastes like cafeteria pizza, but all the bad parts of it. The crust was rock hard cardboard. The sauce was pretty bad. It had a weird aftertaste. The meatless pepperoni and sausage was not good. I could look past the gummy/weird cheese if the rest of the pizza weren’t a mess. Sad.
Oh hell no
Crust almost broke my teeth and slimey topcrust under bad sauce but I ate it all and will eat the other one too cuz this s*** is too expensive to throw out and cuz its food and a starving poor person would do anything to eat it i want to soak the crust in water to soften it but i would rather just eat ot as is and cry at the same time omg im mad

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!
