Do you have a backyard pizza oven or enjoy experimenting with pizzas at home? This workshop is designed for anyone who loves pizza and wants to take their skills to the next level!

Here’s what you’ll learn:

• Get the most out of your home pizza oven: Whether you’re using a backyard pizza oven or a home oven, discover how to achieve the ideal heat for that crispy-yet-chewy crust.
• Dough Stretching Techniques: Learn how to work with your dough like a pro—no rolling pins here!
• Launching Made Easy: Avoid those dreaded dough disasters with tips for smoothly launching your pizza into the oven.
• Top-Tier Toppings: Explore the best sauces, cheeses, and toppings to elevate your pizza game, including the importance of balance and layering.
• Troubleshooting Tips: What to do if your dough is too sticky, your pizza isn’t cooking evenly, or your crust is burning.
• The Perfect Finish: Garnishing tips to give your pizza that final, professional touch (think fresh basil, olive oil drizzles, and flaky sea salt).

Please note: this is a fun introductory evening for people who have bought or are thinking of buying a pizza oven. It is not a pizza dough making workshop - if you are looking for something more advanced then  join our Art of Pizza making course with NZ's top pizza chef Enis Bacova.

And of course, the best part—you’ll get hands-on experience making your very own pizza and you’ll get to enjoy it, paired with a selection of treats from our deli.

Come hungry, leave happy—and ready to impress your family and friends with your pizza skills!
