When I first received my pizza kit, I was somewhat skeptical of the taste and quality. Once I opened it and followed the directions, I was pleasantly surprised as to how easy it was to make with no other ingredients needed for the dough. No running to the store to purchase the extras you don't have in your pantry. I much prefer a thicker crust and found the amount of dough not quite adequate for my taste. You also have to be careful to monitor the cooking time as the crust will overbake easily. I added a lot of toppings to offset the thin crust, but this resulted in having to eat with a fork and knife instead of just just holding a slice in my hand as the dough doesn't rise that much. As for the taste, I would have to say it was average. Not too salty of a dough. I should have made mini pizzas instead to ensure a thicker crust. Overall, this product was easy to make and the sauce had a good flavour. Not overly impressed with crust cooking time. I do eat the Dr. Oetker frozen pizzas and had hoped the taste would be similiar, but it was not. I appreciate the promotion as it allowed me to try a product I would not buy usually. Compared to their kits, I still prefer the Dr. Oetker frozen pizzas.    -
