Chef Johnny Di Francesco melted together 94 different cheeses and chilled the mixture into a block to achieve the right texture and flavor. Five fresh cheeses are also featured on the pizza.

This week, Paramount celebrated the DVD and Blu-ray release of the movie by recreating the cheese-loaded pizza based upon the chef’s blueprint as part of their publicity campaign.

The 99-cheese pizza proved popular at Di Francesco’s restaurant, where he sold over 100 of them in two hours.

For those brave souls interested in attempting to make the 99-cheese pizza at home, Comic Book Resources provides a list of all of the cheeses.
