QB Gelato & Bakery, 1884 Dayton Ave., in the Landmark District now has Roman hand-crafted pizza tiles. What makes it different? The dough is made focaccia style with a light, airy crust made with olive oil, flour, water, yeast, and salt. It is shaped and baked in large rectangle pieces, not a triangle like most pizzas.

The cheese is Fior Di Latte, which is like a cow milk mozzarella, which is very popular in Italian cooking, along with fresh basil, which QB gets from local business Unearth Organic.
