A competing squad of 13 USPT members will journey to Parma, Italy, this month to face off against 800 pizzaioli from more than 30 countries in the home of Parmesan and prosciutto. USPT members will compete in over 25 categories, including Classica, Pizza in Teglia (pan), Pizza in Pala (pizza on the peel), Pizza Senza Glutine (gluten-free), and Pizza a Due, an event that sees two pizzaioli partner to build one masterpiece for the judges.
