Pizza lover travels 6,000 miles to get pizza perfection

Witt’s Pizza Oven range has been wowing pizza-aficionados all over the world since its launch earlier this year.

But one pizza enthusiast certainly went more than the extra mile to get his hands on a pizza the action.

Alejandro Lead is from Mexico and loves nothing more than to make tasty homemade pizzas for his family and friends and was seeking for the ultimate oven to deliver hot, crispy pizzas every time.

After researching brands online, Alejandro settled on the Witt ETNA Rotante, know for its unique rotating pizza stone which ensures 360 degrees of perfectly cooked toppings and crispy crusts, all in under a minute.

However, there was only one problem, the oven isn’t yet available in Mexico. But! Alejandro wasn’t going to let this stop him on his quest for the ultimate, perfect pizza, and so he embarked on a remarkable journey with his son Junior, to Germany to purchase his dream oven.

Two flights, two train journeys, and 24 hours later, Alejandro, who shares his pizza creations on Instagram @pizzacasadileo, became the proud owner of a Witt ETNA Rotante.

Now he's back home in Mexico, Alejandro is working his magic to create delicious pizzas and says: “We really enjoy making pizzas and I knew I wanted to have the best oven out there, no matter how far I had to travel to get it!

“The Rotante heats up so quickly and the electric motor and rotating stone makes cooking so easy, delivering perfectly cooked pizza every time!”

Cathrine Orloff Risum, Product Manager Outdoor, at Witt said: “It’s incredible a man literally on the other side of the world is reaching out to Witt in Denmark in his search for the perfect pizza oven. That’s what we call a real pizza love story!”

Capable of accommodating pizzas up to a family feast friendly 16inches (40.5cm), the Witt Etna Rotante is perfect for pizza parties, chefs, and pizza-aficionados alike and has already taken Europe by storm.

Already available in Harrods, Selfridges, UK independent retailers, selected garden centres and Witt’s Amazon Store, the Witt Etna Rotante is available now, priced at around £699.
