Conclusions.
• Which sample did you prefer and why?
• What was the class favourite?
• Would you buy any of the samples again and
why?
• Do you think brought pizzas are better value for
money than homemade?
• Which pizza that you sampled today do you
think is best value for money?
• What sensory qualities are you going to ensure
that your homemade pizza has?
Evaluating existing productsPizzas.
It is also important to look at the packaging and labelling on food products to see

Homework; Pizza research
sheet.
Pizza, like so many other foods, did not originate in the country for
which it is now famous. Unless you have researched the subject, you,
like so many people, probably always thought Pizza was strictly an
Italian creation.
The foundations for Pizza were originally laid by the early Greeks who
first baked large, round and flat breads which they "anointed with oil,
herbs, spices and Dates."

FINAL IDEA
• Draw out chosen idea larger on A3 paper. Label with ingredients
used, and explain why you have chosen it and not the others, in
detail. Include size and record measurements on design.
• Use your specification when explaining idea.
• For example, I have chosen this idea and not the others because it
is appetising, includes a range of toppings which would be
appealing to a teenager, it is not already in the supermarkets, it is an
unusual shape. It would also be quite a challenge to make. The
other ideas, are not as appetising and there are already similar to
ones on the market today.
• Look at ways of developing this idea.
