    i used to buy them at tesco they were lovely! hope you find some soon i also used to get dolmio sauce for them, any toppings and a bag of grated mozarella and a sachet of mixed herbs to sprinkle on cheese they were the best ive ever tasted!!!!i'm biased!!!!!!!!!!!!

    You will need a breadmaker. But seriously, this recipe is so good it's worth buying a breadmaker just to make it. Just think of all the money you will save on pizzas!

    Bung ingredients in breadmaker bowl in the order listed.

    1 cup water
    1 tbsp butter
    2 tbsp sugar
    1 tsp salt
    2.75 cups strong white flour (cheapest SWF is from Tesco or Lidl. You can economise still further by using 2 cups SWF and .75 cup ordinary cheapest white)
    1 tbsp dried yeast

    Use lowest setting (9 on our MR breadmaker).

    I am really serious about this - there are some giveaway breadmakers out there at the mo, in the sales. (I would recommend trying the recipe which comes with your own bm first, though ;) )

    PS Not as good, but you can get very cheap instant pizza base mixes from supermarkets - dry ingredients just add water. Cost about 27p last time I looked. Should be somewhere near the flour and stuff, with other things like pancake mix :cool:

    Thanks to everyone, it seems I just am not looking in the right places. thats what happens when I go shopping, I just put my head down, & dash round trying to do it as quickly as possible. I'll take more time this week. I would have a bash at making my own base, but my culinary skills are little better than my shopping skills. Thought I couls at least mangage NOT to ruin pizza topping though. There again
