Preparing the pizza dough:
Mix the water, sugar and dried yeast together and leave to stand for about 10 minutes. Combine the flour, salt and black food colouring in a large bowl. Add the yeast mixture and olive oil, then knead everything for about 10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic. Cover the dough and leave to rise in a warm place for about 1 hour.
Preparing the pizza:
Preheat the oven to 250°C (conventional oven). Roll out the risen dough on a floured work surface and top with tomato sauce and the grated cheese. Set the mozzarella aside for now.
Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for about 10–15 minutes.
Creating the mozzarella ghosts:
Cut small ghost shapes out of the mozzarella and arrange them on the pizza. Bake for a further 10 minutes, until the cheese has melted and the crust is slightly crispy.
Remove the Halloween pizza from the oven, leave to cool briefly and serve warm.
Preparation time:
Approx. 1 hour 50 minutes (including proving and baking time).
