Let's Pizza is a company, which manufactures pizza making vending machines. The pizzas are prepared from scratch and it is the first vending machine to produce freshly made ready-to-eat pizza. Let's Pizza machines combine technology with traditional pizza making. Customers can choose their preferred toppings, and the machine will prepare the dough, add sauce and toppings, and bake the pizza in a matter of minutes.

Information

The machine combines water, flour, tomato sauce, and fresh ingredients to make a pizza in approximately three minutes. It includes windows so customers can watch the pizza as it is made.[1] The pizza is cooked in an infrared oven.[2] The machine is made to create 100 pizzas before it needs to be refilled with its ingredients.[3]
