The classic combination is provolone, parmigiano, groviera, pecorino.
Otherwise, the choice is fairly wide; often enough used other cheeses
are mozzarella, stracchino, fontina, ricotta, gorgonzola, scamorza.

Gianluca Procaccini, who won a championship pizza-cooking contest in the
town of Salsomaggiore, in 2001, is said to have used camoscio d'oro,
crema di formaggi, mozzarella, and gorgonzola dolce.
