Caputo Nuvola flour is specially crafted for those who want to achieve pizzas with an airy, soft crust, perfect for authentic Neapolitan-style creations. With a W value of 280/290, this type 0 flour offers a balanced gluten structure that provides optimal elasticity and extensibility. It’s the ideal choice for home bakers and professionals aiming for that classic, puffy, and chewy crust.
Why Choose Caputo Nuvola Flour?
The W value of Caputo Nuvola flour (280/290) means it can handle higher hydration levels, allowing the dough to absorb more water without becoming sticky. This makes it easier to work with, ensuring the dough stretches beautifully and rises to create a soft, cloud-like texture. The name “Nuvola,” meaning “cloud” in Italian, perfectly captures the light, airy feel of the finished pizza.

Enhanced Fermentation for Rich Flavor
Caputo Nuvola flour supports long fermentation times, making it ideal for doughs that rest up to 24 hours. This slow fermentation allows the dough to develop deeper flavors and a better structure, resulting in a more complex and enjoyable pizza crust. The flour’s strength helps the dough maintain its shape and integrity, making it a top choice for creating traditional Neapolitan-style pizzas with large air pockets and a crispy edge.
