Gift Vouchers for Christmas: The Experience Food Lovers Actually Want
Forget the Guesswork. Give Something Real This Christmas. Here’s an Idea!
We all know the feeling, that bit of panic in December when you’re trying to find a gift that actually means something. Something personal. Thoughtful. Useful, even.
You scroll. You browse. You consider a bottle of wine or a set of fancy oils. But what most people really want, especially food lovers, is something they can do.
Something they’ll look forward to. Something they’ll talk about.
That’s where a Marino & The Dough gift voucher comes in.
This isn’t a gift card for a shop they’ll forget about or another thing to add to the pile. It’s a full-blown pizza experience. Hands-on, high-quality, and full of warmth, food, and connection.
So, What Exactly Are They Getting?
When you give someone one of our masterclass gift vouchers, you’re giving them:
A 2.5 to 3-hour private pizza masterclass in their own home or chosen space
All the professional gear brought in — -, ingredients, tools, and our Gozney gas-fired oven, in case you don’t have your own gas or wood-fired oven.
Step-by-step guidance from me (Luke), an Australian-Italian pizza specialist who loves sharing the craft
A dough-making experience from scratch, with real techniques that Luke has perfected over time.
A proper feed — they’ll make their own pizzas, eat them fresh out of the oven, and feel proud doing it
It’s not just about learning to cook. It’s about connecting over food, hanging out with mates or family, and building confidence in the kitchen.
It’s the kind of gift that sticks with people long after the last slice.
Who This Pizza Masterclass Voucher is Perfect For
Gold Coast Pizza lovers. Foodies. Anyone who’s ever said “I’d love to learn how to make dough like this” while biting into a slice.
But also:
Couples who love hosting or cooking together
Parents who already have enough “stuff”
Mates who’d rather do something fun than unwrap another present
Bosses, teams, or clients who deserve something personal and hands-on
People who’ve taken a class before and want to share it with someone else
It’s also a great option when you want to go in together on a gift — something a bit more meaningful than a group voucher or another box of chocolates. It’s the perfect excuse to book a group session and turn it into a shared experience for the whole family or crew, where everyone gets hands-on, learns together, and bonds over the dough.
How the Gift Vouchers Work
Digital & Easy
You can buy gift vouchers online. We’ll send you a digital version straight to your inbox (or directly to the recipient, if you prefer). You can also print it out if you’re gifting it in person.
2 Years Expiry Window
The recipient has 2 years to use the voucher, plenty of time to book the perfect night. And we’ll work with ppl them to find a date that suits their location and group size.
Gold Coast & Brisbane
At the moment, gift vouchers are available for people based on the Gold Coast and in Brisbane. We travel to them and bring everything with us, they don’t even need a fancy kitchen. Unless they’ve got a gas-fired or wood-fired oven, we use all our own equipment.
For 6 to 20 People
The vouchers are flexible. Some are designed for smaller groups (6–10) and others for larger parties (up to 20). It’s ideal for birthdays, anniversaries, housewarmings, or just a night of cooking with good company.
Why This Makes a Brilliant Christmas Gift
It’s hands-on — not just another thing to unwrap
It’s memorable — people don’t forget the time they made real pizza dough from scratch
It’s shared — most gifts are opened alone; this one’s experienced together
It’s personal — you’re giving them something made with care
It’s fun — no stress, no pressure, just a proper good time with food and laughter
You’re not just giving them a class. You’re giving them a night to look forward to, a new skill to feel proud of, and a memory they’ll carry with them.
That’s what a good gift should do.
