Over the years we have tried many store bought pizza bases to make unique home made pizzas. I enjoy adding our favourite toppings. I experiment with our own dough sometimes. In the dough experiments I haven't yet found perfection. What works one time , is not as good the next.

Generous sized base. I prepare all ingredients ready to toss on top |
When I heard Bakers Delight‘s had added new pizza bases to their range, I jumped at the chance to try them out.They are preservative free which it very important to me.They come in herb or plain , sold in a 2 pack. Ours were plain. I appreciate Baker's delight products are baked daily on the premises, from scratch. My experience has always been the best.
Baker's delight bases are perfect for the nights all I want to worry about is to what to top them with.We have tried everything from specialty bases to ones in the frozen section of supermarket. Baker's Delight are by far the best ever.
The males in this house are very traditional with their pizza - a mix of meat , more meat and cheese is usually the go. Usually the only vegetable is in the tomato sauce in the base.
My choices of flavoursome varieties are 'pfft' at. Plus it gets expensive to add 4 slices of mushroom :0 or a 2 pieces of sun dried tomato , 1-2 olives or a few spinach leaves when buying takeaway.
Fortunately at home I can experiment, use better quality meats and less cheese than 'traditional' and add a few of my own choice ingredients.
I like half and half to get more variety, exactly what I did when we

Personally, I prefer a thin and crispy style. I enjoyed these though ,crispy edges with a pizza that held it's shape and toppings.

Sometimes we add a bit of ham and some olives.
Pal makes most of our pizza bases, being a baker, but it would be great to have some fresh bases that didn't require proving and rolling and that are already shaped - would be much less if a clean up after dinner for me!

My favourite pizza is salami, caramalised pumpkin, cherry tomatoes, haloumi (or feta) cheese, a sprinkle of shreaded chedder cheese and topped with rocket. You need to put heaps of rocket on (looks like too much) as it shrinks when cooking.
My best tip is to not over-top. People think the more variety of toppings the better, but I find if you add more you just lost the individual flavours. The best pizza has a nice thin dough and just a few good quality ingredients for the toppings.

They must all have some diced bacon (preferably strips diced at home), chorizo/kebana/pepperoni or some type of sausage, capsicum, mushroom, onion and a little bit of cheese, the rest depends on what is in the fridge and who else is eating it with me
