Where strangers become friends, one dish at a time.

We're starting with my secret, award-winning focaccia base — plus a few variations to play with — before moving into pizza dough that'll be oven-ready in 3 hours flat. Along the way I'll let you in on a few secret notes that take this basic recipe from "good" to "wait, YOU made this?" 🍕

We'll play with classic toppings, and a few slightly unhinged ones too. You'll get your own hands-on moment to create your own topping combination for both your focaccia and your pizza, right here with me.

PS — this one runs a little differently to the other experiences, so bring your happy spirit and a sense of humour, we're going to have some fun with this one 😄

🎁 What you'll walk away with
Your focaccia dough to bake at home (or take your finished pizza home too, totally up to you), plus the confidence — and the secret notes — to make genuinely next-level dough whenever you want.
