Practical Pizza-Maker Gifts
The options for funny pizza gifts are endless, but there’s an abundance of joy for the more practical aficionado, too.
A pizza making class.
Are you or someone you love ready to take the dough into your own hands? Give the gift of homemade pizza. Cozymeal can take you on a culinary journey of your own creation with local pizza-making classes. (They also offer gift cards!)
A new pizza stone.
Unlike some kitchen tools, pizza stones aren’t just a snobby accessory you don’t really need. Here’s why — explained beautifully by Popular Mechanics:
“Compared to the metal of a baking sheet or pizza pan, the ceramic material of a pizza stone holds heat more evenly, and the porous surface draws water out of particularly wet areas of the dough as it cooks. Plus, when you preheat the stone, it gives the dough a strong burst of initial heat, puffing up the crust. A pan can’t do that.”
See? A PAN CAN’T DO THAT.
A folding pizza peel with a stone brush.
Nothing levels up an at-home pizza game like this pizza peel and stone brush. This is an accessory for a real professional. Who needs a pizza wheel when you have a pizza peel, right?

A Reheatza – to reheat your pizza.
I can sympathize with anyone who reheats their pizza in the microwave. It’s a huge compromise in quality, but it’s also much faster — and sometimes you just have to make that sacrifice.
Not anymore. The Reheatza helps you reheat your pizza to crispy perfection in the microwave!
Pizza slice containers.
