FROM PIZZA PASSION TO AWARD-WINNING EXCELLENCE

Michele’s journey into the world of pizza began in October 2019 as a passionate home baker, experimenting with doughs and techniques in his own kitchen. What started as a personal quest for the perfect pizza quickly evolved into something much bigger.

OUR APPROACH

At Michele Pizza School, we believe in:

• Technical precision that’s easy to understand and replicate
• Professional methods adapted for home equipment
• Authentic recipes developed through years of experimentation
• Ongoing support for all our students

Unlike typical pizza courses that focus on entertainment, we deliver professional-grade techniques in an accessible, practical format that produces real results.

THE DUE FORNI STORY

In August 2022, Giuseppe, Cristina and Michele transformed this passion into profession, opening Due Forni pizzeria in Beaconsfield. Within a remarkably short time, his dedication to perfection and technical mastery earned Due Forni national recognition:

• 3rd Best Pizza in the UK – National Pizza Awards
• High Commendation – PAPA Awards
• “3 Brushes” Recognition – Arcimboldo Guide (Italy)
• Featured in The Sun, local newspapers, and radio broadcasts

TEACHING PHILOSOPHY

Michele’s approach to teaching combines technical precision with practical application. Unlike many pizza courses that focus on entertainment over education, Michele Pizza School emphasizes:

• Technical understanding of dough science and fermentation
• Practical methods that work with home equipment
• Systematic approach to consistently excellent results
• Ongoing support for continuous improvement

“I believe anyone can make exceptional pizza at home when they understand the ‘why’ behind each technique. My goal isn’t just to teach you how to make one good pizza – it’s to give you the knowledge to create any style you desire, consistently and confidently.”

– Michele, Founder
