In the vibrant energy of El Poblado, where time sometimes seems to speed up, the craving for a perfect pizza doesn’t wait. But is it possible to get an artisanal pizza, with that authentic flavor and crispy base, in just 15 minutes? At Cala Roca Provenza, it’s not only possible—it’s our promise. We’re breaking the myth that good pizza requires hours of preparation. We present the express flavor revolution: where speed meets gourmet quality, without compromise.

Express dough: The quick base with an artisanal soul

The first challenge for a fast pizza is the dough. A traditional 72-hour fermentation is not an option here, but surrender is not in our vocabulary. Our express dough is the result of meticulous culinary engineering.

We use a blend of premium flours and an accelerated but controlled fermentation technique that respects the fundamental principles of gluten development and flavor. Although the time is shortened, the process doesn’t skip steps. The dough is worked with the same expertise, resulting in a base that maintains a surprisingly good texture: thin and substantially crispy on the outside, with a tender and flavorful crumb on the inside. It’s the perfect foundation for a quick yet authentically artisanal experience.

Maximum heat oven: The power of the stone oven

The true magic that makes this 15-minute miracle possible lies at the heart of our kitchen: the stone oven at maximum temperature. This titan lives in a perpetual state of hellish heat, consistently exceeding 400°C (750°F).

This extreme temperature is the master key:

• Lightning-Fast Cooking: A pizza takes between 60 and 90 seconds to cook completely. The radiant heat instantly seals the surface of the dough, creating that characteristic crispy crust.
• Express “Leoparding”: The intense heat shock produces the desired dark spots (“leoparding”) on the base, the mark of a perfect professional bake.
• Authentic Flavor: The stone oven imparts that unmistakable and slightly smoky flavor that defines a true pizza.

This element is what transforms our express dough into a gourmet pizza base in the blink of an eye.

Fresh toppings: Premium ingredients, no waiting

Speed never means sacrificing ingredient quality. While the oven works at maximum power, our pizzaiolos prepare your creation with the same dedication as all our pizzas.

Fresh toppings are the star: homemade tomato sauce, the best quality mozzarella, freshly cut aromatic herbs, premium cured meats, and top-notch vegetables. There are no shortcuts here. The combination of extreme heat and the freshness of the ingredients creates a perfect synergy: the toppings cook just enough, maintaining their texture, juiciness, and vibrant flavor.
