We start our guide off with the Old Stone Oven Pizza Stone, our best selling pizza stone by far. This stone duplicates the conditions found in restaurant style stone baking ovens so crusts come out crispy but not over done and evenly cooked throughout. An important feature to the Old Stone Oven Pizza Stone, available at CooksDirect.com, is that it has a porosity and heat retention that ensures a good crust every time.  A perfect gift idea, this pizza stone even includes tips and recipes for the lucky pizza chef you'll be giving this too. 

Most pizza lovers agree that their pizza tastes best right out of the oven -- but you can't eat it whole!  Our gift guide includes a variety of pizza slicing tools to help your pizza lover slice their pie up fast.  These commercial quality pizza wheels, pizza knives, even pizza scissors will be well received by the pizza fanatic on your gift list. 

For the serious pizza aficionado on your 2011 holiday gift list, we've included a restaurant style 3-shelf pizza cabinet so they can create they're very own pizza parlor in their home.  We're also showing the Fusion Pizza Oven, a great gift for the busy family that loves their pizza.

Americans on average eat 46 slices of pizza a year - and with that in mind, you're bound to have a pizza fanatic or two on your 2011 Holiday Gift List!  It might even be that the pizza lover in your life is you.  Whether you're gift shopping for the total pizza addict, the pizza crazed college student or the gourmet pizza aficionado, all of us at Cook's Direct are sure you'll find a perfect pizza lovers gift in the 2011 Holiday Gift Guide for the Pizza Fanatic.
