There's something about making pizza yourself that always hits all of the right spots. Maybe it's because the toppings and crust thickness are just how you like them, or because you're so proud of yourself for cooking it thoroughly that it could taste terrible and you'd still be proud. Either way, the serious among you may want to invest in this Artisan Fire Pizza Oven from Kalamazoo Outdoor Gourmet. With an old-world style, this gas-fired stainless steel oven has individually-controlled deck and ceiling burners, which give you far more control than wood-fired brick ovens do. You still get the large open flame though, which mimics the heat of the traditional models, and is ready to cook in as little as 20 minutes. The company promises that with a 45-minute pre-heat, this Artisan Oven will cook you the perfect Neapolitan-style pizza in less than three minutes. Also, if you buy one before December 18, you'll get a bunch of essential accessories worth $300 (including two Italian-made pizza peels, two dough boxes and a dough cutter), for free!

If you like snacking on dried fruit or jerky, you've probably thought about making some on your own and if that's the case, you should invest in the 3900B Deluxe Dehydrator by Excalibur. With nine trays and a total of 15 square feet of drying space, this Dehydrator has an adjustable thermostat that ranges from 95 to 155 degrees, meaning that it's completely safe for drying meat and fish for jerky. The fan, heating element and thermostat are in the back, bringing air in and evenly distributing it over the trays. According to Excalibur, the 3900B will dry your food quicker than other models, while retaining the nutrients and giving a richer taste. You can even take the trays out if you need to raise dough.

Who doesn't like chocolate? And, if you know of some people, you definitely should never trust them. For the normal folks in your life, consider giving them a decadent collection from zChocolat — or buy them for yourself. Their Holiday Diamond offering is currently available for pre-order (they'll be in stock on November 15) and is comprised of a rich-toned mahogany box full of three different 15-piece assortments. The boxes are handcrafted in the Jura region of France and has a golden inlaid crystalline snowflake on the lid. The chocolates are arranged in three layers: the traditional assortment with pralines, ganaches and caramels; the exotic assortment with pistachio, Sri Lanken coconut, Sichuan pepper, cinnamon, Chinese ginger, coriander and violet; and a special praline collection with Piedmont hazelnuts, French walnuts and Dutch sesame seeds. They even throw in a mix of four white, two milk and three dark zChocolates. If you don't like what comes stocked in the box, you are free to customize it however you like. You can also add a message on the box and include a photo inside. I'll take five boxes, please.
