History
[edit]Anthony DeMauro invented the pizza bagel in 1957 at Amster's Bagel Bakery (now closed) in South Euclid, a suburb of Cleveland, Ohio. It was not until May 26, 1970, when Amster Pizza Bagel, Inc. submitted registration for Pizza Bagels to the US Copyright Office.[1] On October 1, 1970, Amster Pizza Bagel, Inc. registered for a product that contains 6 frozen pizza bagels in folding cartons with a net weight of 11 ounces (310 g).[2]
In 1974 at a Western Bagel in Woodland Hills, California, 17-year-old store clerk Bruce Treitman began offering a flattened bagel with marinara sauce and mozzarella cheese.[3][4]
In early 2014, Katz Bagel Bakery in Chelsea, Massachusetts, claimed that Harry Katz invented a variation of this pizza bagel in 1970.[5] Unlike traditional pizza bagels, Katz' version is similar to a miniature pizza. Katz uses bagel dough without the hole, topped with cheese and tomato sauce.[4][6]
Commercial distribution
[edit]The Bagel Bites brand was inspired by the pizza bagel. Bagel Bites are a miniature, frozen version of the pizza bagel sold in commercial grocery stores.
