The delicious meal features slices of prosciutto, apple, cantaloupe and a fragrant balsamic drizzle. Unlike most pizzas that stick to savory ingredients, this pizza borrows the popular [savory and sweet combination](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/italian-deli-pizza) of a piece of cantaloupe wrapped in prosciutto to create a deliciously flavorful dinner. The pizza is made from [homemade dough](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miltons-pizzas) topped with shredded mozzarella cheese, olive oil, garlic powder and dried basil. The pizza is then covered in thin slices of prosciutto and small slices of cantaloupe and honeydew melon. Once the pizza is baked, it is topped with a homemade balsamic drizzle to tie the melon and cured meat together. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.5/10 - Popularity: 3% | Activity: 4% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Sweet-savory Combination:** Creating unique and unexpected flavor combinations by blending sweet and savory ingredients in innovative ways. - **Fruit-inspired Pizzas:** Incorporating various fruits as ingredients in pizza recipes to add a fresh and refreshing twist to traditional flavors. - **Creative Pizza Toppings:** Experimenting with unconventional toppings like prosciutto melon skewers to create exciting and delicious pizza options. ### Who This Affects Most - **Food and Beverage:** Exploring new flavor profiles and ingredient combinations to attract adventurous consumers looking for unique dining experiences. - **Restaurant:** Revamping pizza menus with innovative and creative toppings to stand out in a saturated market. - **Catering:** Offering appetizer-themed pizzas as a unique and crowd-pleasing option for special events and parties. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Spicy Stone Fruit Pizzas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kickin-bbq-peach-pizza.md) - [Charcuterie-Inspired Pizzas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/specially-selected-charcuterie-pizza.md) - [Sweetly Spiced Pizza Melts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tropical-heat-melt.md) - [Thanksgiving Pecan Pizzas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pecan-pizza.md) - [Prosciutto-Wrapped Cheeses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charcuterie-game.md) - [Martini-Inspired Pizzas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dirty-martini-pizza.md) - [Spicy Pepperoni Slices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/margherita-jalapeno-pepperoni.md) - [Modernized Tropical Pizza Recipes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-hawaiian-pizza.md) - [Honey-Drizzled Burrata Pizzas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mikes-hot-honey-burrata-pizza.md)
