Pizza unquestionably stands as one of the most iconic foods globally. It finds representation in every cuisine. Opinions on it may vary – some consider it unconventional, while others find it refreshing. At PizzaSi, we aim to move beyond the typical cliches, though it’s worth noting that pineapple in a tin is not welcome on our pizza!
For those reasons, we’re thrilled to announce a competition centred around unleashing your creativity, showcasing your culinary expertise, and exploring flavour combinations with you in our PizzaSi Academy kitchen.
And there is more… The Silver Slicer – Young Chef Pizza Specialty Competition come with
A prize you do not want to miss!
Theme:
This year, we’re challenging you to bring “The flavours of British summer” to life with your most innovative approach.
Ingredients:
You will be working on your 2 recipes, using:
🍕Our newest Sourdough Pizza; a staple of our range, gracing kitchens worldwide Or PINSA Bases; a roman delight with the ideal blend of airy, chewy goodness and rich flavour.
🍕You will be able to use our very own selection of high-quality ingredients.
🍕But here’s the twist – we would encourage you to bring your own toppings selection to make your Pizzas uniquely yours!
Cook-off competition:
The competition will be a friendly, yet competitive, cook–off where you get to show your skills and experiment with flavours. It’s your time to shine as you present your culinary masterpieces to our judges. You have been challenged to make two different Pizzas, following the given theme “The flavours of British summer”, from which you will be assessed on four different variables. With a focus on creativity, you will be judged based on your two different creations on the factors following:
🍕On theme
🍕Creativity
🍕Presentation
🍕Taste
Feel free to unleash your creativity, but we request that you grasp and adhere to PizzaSi’s fundamental principles: straightforward preparations, efficient operations, and commercially oriented outcomes:
- A technical vote from our judges

Prize:
And here’s the extra special topping: the Young Chef who wows us all the most will win a fantastic 2–day trip to Italy! 🇮🇹
