ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for making pizza includes a housing and a plurality of canisters containing fresh dough stored in the housing. A cutting blade is disposed in the housing and is moveable between an upper limit position and a lower limit position to cut a slice of dough from one of the plurality of canisters. A press plate is disposed in the housing and receives the slice of dough. The press plate includes a first plate and a second plate that selectively move into engagement with each other to define an internal chamber therebetween to press flat and preheat the slice of dough. A rotary index table station is disposed in the housing and includes a plurality of plates, with each of the plates being rotatable about a central axis of the rotary index table station. Preheated pizza crust is deposited on the plates. Each of the plates is then moveable between an innermost radial position and an outermost radial position. Each of the plates also has a central axis such that each of the plates are rotatable about its respective central axis when moving between the innermost radial position and the outermost radial position. Toppings are applied during this movement so they are placed on the pizza crust in a spiral pattern.
