Last week I was fortunate enough to spend the day at Outdoor Loving event with the amazing team from .uk
Demoing all the fantastic ooni products, cooking in some great ovens and eating probably too much pizzas!

Thank you to Rory, Amy, Noe & Maddie for a fun afternoon

We’ve wanted to try our hand at sourdough for ages, but the whole ‘sourdough starter’ part put us off.

So, when the lovely Hope from dropped us over some of her starter last weekend, we had no more excuses!

Hope has perfected her sourdough over multiple bakes and has created some easy to follow, step by step videos which we followed to bake our loaf.

Hope even has videos on sourdough starter maintenance, shaping and the accessories needed to make the perfect sourdough.

The satisfaction in our household today is on another level! Definitely give Hope a follow for some baking guidance and inspiration!

Last night we had the absolute pleasure of serving up pizzas at the launch evening of a new Bedfordshire based wine retailer, run by husband & wife duo, Nicola and Henry Wisson-Hill.

With twenty odd years experience in the industry between them, they know their stuff - they lovingly hand pick wines to get excited about and love sharing their knowledge with others!

As well as selling wines, they offer wine tasting experiences, cellar management and host events.

So whether you know a thing about wines, or like us, you don’t know much, give them a follow to learn more and support local.

It’s been a busy but fulfilling weekend.

Saturday we catered for a baby shower, and yesterday, thanks to Edwina our road was closed off to celebrate the Kings coronation!

It was heart warming to see neighbours, family and friends of all ages and backgrounds, come together to eat, drink, chat and enjoy the occasion.

Music was flowing, thanks to and lots of pizza was consumed!

Thanks to our wonderful community, we were able to raise £194 for Willen Hospice as well 💕

It was Pizza Saturday again last night in our house!

Now we are fully mobile, we will be focusing on private parties, weddings and occasional market pop ups in 2022, so if you have a special celebration coming up this year, what better way to celebrate than with your very own pizza party?! DM us for more info.

February marks ONE YEAR since all began, so to mark the occasion, we will be having one final pizza for collection evening on a Saturday soon - details to follow shortly.

13/12/2021

Yesterday was our final pizza service of 2021 - this was the only snap we managed to get from the day!

We were honoured to be asked to make pizzas for little Judes 1st birthday celebrations.

We offered a ‘slice bar service’ where guests could help themselves to slices of freshly cooked pizza and garlic bread.

Thank you so much for having us guys, what a party!! (And thanks for the mulled wine too 🎉)

Wishing everyone a happy and safe Christmas time.

Good evening! With a number of new followers, we thought it would be nice to share our journey so far.

We are married couple - Gary & Sinead, with two little children at home and our own ‘day jobs’.

After years of making pizzas in the oven and BBQ at home, Gary finally got a wood fired pizza oven for his 40th birthday last year.

In February, during lockdown No. 2, we thought what the heck and took the plunge of starting to sell wood fired pizzas for collection on a Saturday evening. It was well received and extremely rewarding to hear people were enjoying pizzas we had made.

We took BYP on the road in July and hosted a couple of pop up pizza evenings .pantrycafe and have recently been where we sold folded pizza sandwiches, that went down a storm!

We have now invested in two pizza ovens which means we are fully mobile and taking bookings for private parties and events - we have our first wedding booked next year!

None of this would be possible without the support and encouragement of you lovely lot, so thank you sincerely from the both of us & let’s see what 2022 has in store for BYP!

**Our next Leighton Buzzard market pop up is THIS SATURDAY!**

We are really looking forward to being back this Saturday selling our folded pizza sandwiches! We’ll be there from 10am - 3pm or sell out (although we are bringing more dough balls!)

The sandwiches are made fresh using our pizza dough, which is stretched, folded and drizzled with extra virgin olive oil and a crack of sea salt, before being cooked at 500 degrees in our ovens.

The weather is looking dry for the moment so please swing by and fill your faces!

We hope to see you there!

Trust us, they taste just as good as fresh from the oven.

*Pre-order by 6pm Friday
*Minimum order 3 pizzas, no delivery charge

First BYP pop up complete and we absolutely loved it!

Thank you so much to everyone who swung by to say hello and to try our pizza sandwiches.

It was our first time on the market, so we had no idea how it would go. Apologies to those who missed out this time - we will return soon, with more dough!!

Big thanks to Adrian, the market traders and local shops for making us feel so welcome and to our family for helping with the kids!

Keep your eyes peeled for another date soon…

20/10/2021

So, this Saturday we have our first pop up!

As it’ll be lunchtime, we have decided to offer something a little different - folded pizzas.

These delicious ‘sandwiches’ are made using our 24 hour proofed pizza dough.

The dough is stretched, folded and drizzled with extra virgin olive oil and a crack of sea salt.

It will be served fresh from the oven, filled with your choice of filling. Vegetarian and vegan options will be available.

We’ll be serving them up between 10am - 3pm, so please swing by, say hello and hopefully we can tempt you to give a folded pizza sandwich a try!

11/10/2021

A polite ask to our customers new and old.
As a small independent business in Leighton Buzzard serving great Neapolitan style pizzas, social media feedback and reviews are invaluable to our growth.

If you have tried our pizzas, either through our weekend collection service or perhaps you came to one of our pop up evenings at The Pantry, we’d really appreciate it if you could take a few moments to leave us a review on our page

(Please note, We are not offering any cash incentives to buy your reviews, we just hope you will do this as you love our pizza)

Thank you
