When we speak about the key elements of a pizza, the crust, sauce, cheese and toppings must feature on your list. Typically, a pizza sauce mainly comprises tomato paste, sauce or puree.

The addition of Hellmann’s mayo to your sauce enhances the sweetness and delightful acidity of the tomato base, and creates a unique flavour that’s the perfect complement to any cheese topping.
