Your Festive Hosting Starter Pack

Hosting at Christmas can feel a bit… chaotic. Between family dropping in, end-of-year catch-ups, and the pressure to put on a “spread,” it’s easy to overthink it. But honestly? You don’t need a hundred dishes or a colour-coded menu plan. You just need a clever setup - and one hero product that does most of the work for you.

Meet Your Holiday Hero: The Dough Tribe Oven

The Dough Tribe Pizzeria Pro Oven is a powerhouse and your shortcut to breezy summer entertaining. It’s compact, fast, and cooks pizzeria-quality pizzas in minutes. Set it up outside on the deck or right on the kitchen bench and watch people gravitate towards it like it’s the Christmas tree. And the best part? You’re not stuck in the kitchen while everyone else is having fun.

And while we’re here - yes, it also happens to make an amazing Christmas present. For foodies, for families, for that one person who’s impossible to buy for… it’s the kind of gift that gets used all year round. 

Choose Festive Toppings That Feel Special (Without the Effort)

You don’t need complicated recipes - just a few crowd-pleasers. Prosciutto and fresh figs with a drizzle of balsamic always hit the mark. BBQ chicken with a little charred pineapple tastes like pure Aussie summer. And a classic Margherita instantly becomes festive with a bright green pesto swirl. Simple, delicious, and impressively Christmassy.

Set Up a DIY Pizza Bar

If you want the ultimate hosting hack, this is it. Lay out your bases, pop your toppings in colourful, easy-to-grab bowls, and let everyone build their own creation. Kids love it, adults get competitive, and suddenly feeding a crowd becomes entertainment in itself. You actually get to relax, mingle, and enjoy your own party.
