What about a "take and bake" option shipped in vacuum sealed bags?  or perhaps a "do it yourself kit" that includes a cooking rock and miniature solar oven?

Actually, I was thinking about something like the following down the road, set up as fund raisers for kids conducting fundraising events. I sell them the oven, rocks, manuel/recipe, etc., but not the ingredients, at cost, thus further expanding the mindshare of Bruno's Micro Pizzeria.

So that I don't use valuable resources to harm the environment, the in-stone-pizzas will be solar bake.

Perhaps I'll even my very own Ninja Baker.



I like this design. I can easily put a dozen of them in my backyard.

put me down for some micro pizza
edit: can you ship them in a capsule to preserve the collect-ability?

They will be shipped in clear plastic(?) containers for constant viewing pleasure.

I think you're nuts  Grin

But I wish you every success in your latest venture.

I'll take one off you if you can deliver to UK (I want it warm when it arrives though!)

I will deliver worldwide. It will ONLY be warm if delivered during the summer months, otherwise expect it to be of current ambient temperature.

I was reading down the thread and this was pretty much exactly what i was going to say. Smiley

That goes for you, also.

Here you go squire:


Not too bad, but the name is Bruno's Micro Pizzeria. I'm going to start a thread offering up a $50 bounty for the best logo design of which I will link to from this thread. I hope you enter.

EDIT: I edited the bounty from $100 to $50 due to how I'm conducting the bounty: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bounty-brunos-micro-pizzeria-seeks-logo-316894

In the spire of stone baked pizzas, I believe it best to offer Bruno's Micro Pizzeria pizzas in drilled cavities of flat stones similar to depicted below.



The 42mm Milliways Pizza will utilize some unique flat stone not yet sourced. Also available will be larger flat stones having multiple 22mm pizzas at a reasonable price point.

Besides bitcoiners, the only drawback I can see is that I'll be catering another small group of enthusiasts--pizza lovers.

I'll bite.  Any estimate for the final price per pizza?  A limit to the # you can order?

No limit as to how many one can order. In fact, it'll be cheaper since I'll combine shipping cost of which will only be charged the exact amount, thus no profit on shipping.

I purchased cases, originally designed for beads, at Walmart at a cost of ~$.35 each, but should be able to source them at a lower rate.

When I start selling the pizzas, they shouldn't be over $2.00 USD each regardless of what's on them, with most of that going toward the labor that's involved. Ideally, I aiming for ~$1.00 USD each. The only other cost I'll have to consider is for the washers, stones, etc., that the pizzas will be encased in, and be a permanent part of the final product. Miniature boxes just came to mind as well.

Now the bad news. It looks like producing 4mm pizzas won't be practical on a large scale due to its small scale. Who would've guessed? But, Bruno's Micro Pizzeria would still be known as the originator of the world's smallest pizza, having at least one 4mm on displayed, sold only as a limited edition.

To keep with the original plan, of which is paramount, I'll see no problem with making micro pizzas at under an inch, looking at 7/8" (22mm) sold commercially on a regular basis, thus recognized as the world's smallest pizza seller since there's already Big Mama''s and Papa''s Pizzeria The largest would be the Milliways Pizza at 42mm, of which its signature ingredients has yet to be determined. I'm opened for suggestions in that regard, bearing in mind the significance of Milliways and the number 42.

I took pics to document the ingredients, receipt, and the washers in a cast iron skillet prior and after the dough was in place, but stopped when I was challenged with the pizza sauce. I realized right off that it wasn't going to go as plan. I will now need to purchase washers or some other cavity sized at 22mm before I tackle the endeavor again.

Bottom line: Making 4mm pizzas is hard!

This brainfart has already cost me:

Washers at Ace: ~$6.00
Walmart: $36.83
Domain Names: ~$25.00
Hostgator: ~$9.00 (will get in sec)

Now, I need a logo or a caricature of my likeness. I'm able to handle the website design and layout.

Fuck it! I put the cart before the horse and went ahead and registered the domains. Besides, how badly can one fuck up a 4mm pizza?

Bruno's Micro Pizzeria is now registered as a .com, .net, .org and .info. Didn't want to take any chances of somebody stealing my multimillion dollar idea.  Roll Eyes

Soon, I'll be hiring a couple full-time chefs, preferable a man and a woman. Any suggestions?  Wink

Phinnaeus, you're one of the most interesting people on this forum BY FAR.  Do you have a blog or something that I can send people to as inspiration?

Also, can I get a certificate of authenticity with this pizza?  I'm concerned about preserving the collectible status.  What would shipping be to the Los Angeles area?

Thanks, bud. No blog yet, but I'm about to register the domain name. Shipping to LA should be under $5, for I'm be shipping the smallest box possible that's able to have an address attached to it, and the weight would be very little.

Since you're the first to reply to this thread, I'll reserve #1 for you until you make up your mind.

As far a certificate of authenticity, I didn't give that much thought, but should be able to be arranged. Now you got me a thinkin' about a shadow box that would display the pizza, certificate, date of purchase via Bitcoin, etc., framed in barn wood.

The first batches will be done in 4mm (1/8") washers. Damn, that hole is small, wondering what possessed me to think up this shit.

I just got back from Walmart after purchasing the needed supplies, and when I turned into the driveway another approach hit me like a ton of bricks. Most everybody is familiar with stone baked pizzas, so why not obtain 1-2(?) inch stones and drill a 4mm (1/8") hole in the center and cook and sell those? Of course the stones would be properly washed/boiled prior to using just in case the pizza's eaten. The end result would be a pizza not cooked on stone, but in it.

Since the ingredients required per each pizza would be miniscule, I've opt to only use the best ingredients once full production commences. The first batch will be using the best ingredients available from Walmart, thus no generic brands used. Proof of such will be provided with pics of all the ingredients along with the receipt.

I'm a clean cook, so no worries about not washing hands regularly of which I always do.

If this takes off, the Micro Pizzas would make fine Christmas presents. Also, since this is basically a waste of good food, albeit it wouldn't be much for say 1,000 pizzas, I'll pledge 10% of sales to Sean's Outpost/Satoshi Forest iff this endeavor comes to fruition. But, that's gettin' the cart before the horse. Let's see how the first batch comes out and see what issues I encounter. Bottom line, I'm excited.

That said, feel free to post your interest if you desire to receive one of the first 20 for only the cost of shipping to your address.

The first 20 (brand name)'s pizzas (not counting Jacob's) can be had for exact shipping cost only. Simply post on this thread if you desire to be one of the first to receive a (brand name) pizza, one of which I'm reserving for the Bitcoin Museum of which they'll have to pay for shipping also if they want one.

Again, this is all based on how the final product comes out, so there's no obligation for being on the list.
