Piazza Challenge - calling amateur chefs

Entries are now open for the inaugural Pizza Challenge. All are invited to create their own gourmet recipe online, give it a mouth-watering name and stand the chance of being selected as the fourth Celebrity Chef for 2012. The top 5 finalists will have to impress a tough line-up of judges selecting the final winner - chefs Jackie Cameron, Coco Reinarhz and Chris Erasmus themselves. In addition to seeing their name and pizza creation bask in fame and glory for the month of August, the Pizza Challenge Winner will walk away with a year's supply of delicious slices from Col'Cacchio pizzeria and other exciting prizes from the Series' sponsors, Peroni, Place in the Sun Wines and Coca Cola.
