Pizza Plate Buyer’s Guides
Frequent pizza eaters will know the importance of a good pizza plate. While slicing your pizza to fit it onto a regular plate can be done, it’s simply not the same! To enjoy your pizza in the best way possible, you need an extra large plate to hold it.

Material
Pizza plates are available in a range of materials. Porcelain plates are affordable, very durable and simple in design. They’ll match the rest of your crockery, and they’re usually both dishwasher and oven safe.
Bamboo is another very popular choice when it comes to pizza plates. Stylish and aesthetic, bamboo pizza plates look great in the centre of the dinner table. Although not dishwasher safe, they are very easy to clean. The best thing about bamboo however, is its sustainability. Perfect for eco-conscious pizza lovers, bamboo is a highly sustainable plant, so you can enjoy your pizza guilt-free.
Wooden pizza plates are also very popular. Retaining their heat well, these plates make a beautiful centrepiece and add a gorgeous natural finish to your crockery collection.
Diameter
When it comes to pizza plates, the bigger the better! Plates with a diameter of 30cm will be able to hold small to medium size pizzas. If you’re a firm believer that there should be no limit when it comes to pizza size, look for a plate with a 35cm+ diameter.
Durability
Bamboo pizza plates are the most durable, able to withstand a drop on a hard floor. A bamboo or wooden pizza plate will last you for years, and you’ll be able to slice the pizza while it’s on the plate.
Ease of Cleaning
If your pizza plate will fit in the dishwasher and is dishwasher safe, this is a great option. Otherwise, you’ll need to wash it by hand. Most are very easy to clean, including bamboo pizza plates which often just need a wipe down with warm water and soap.
