The new Donatello range comes in four deck sizes to save space

The new ‘Donatello’ oven from pizza equipment manufacturer Cuppone is the third piece of kitchen kit to be included in our equipment special feature.

Product details:

Donatello is a feature-packed, price-competetive model that aims to meet the needs of restaurants, gastropubs and takeaways. It boasts a wide range of features to guarantee improved energy efficiency and speed of cooking and comes in four deck sizes to save space.

The oven’s new digital control system also has the ability to individually set the temperature of the chamber and the power of the two heating elements with a pre-programmable feature. This ensures total control and guarantees it runs to its maximum energy efficiency capacity.

It also boasts a new 12V halogen low voltage lighting system that is capable of withstanding the extremely high temperatures required for cooking pizzas. An efficient and aesthetically pleasing stainless steel extraction hood and stand are also available.

USP:

In addition to differentiated top and bottom heating elements and a stone-cooking base that guarantees authentic Italian cooking, Donatello features a new Heat Generation System. Designed to restrict heat loss and energy, this system enables quick recovery times whilst opening and closing the oven – a feature that is ideal for busy kitchens

Why you should buy it:

Managing Director of Linda Lewis Kitchens Linda Lewis said: “We are delighted to introduce Donatello to our product range. Cooking pizza in just 3-6 minutes, this model is ideal for any gastro pub, restaurant or takeaway wanting to deliver authentic tasting pizzas to their customers quickly, without compromising on flavour and quality.”

“The pizza industry is now worth £1.85 billion and by 2016, it is expected to have grown by a further 22 per cent. Hence, it is vital that any establishment wanting to improve their pizza offering invests in equipment that can accommodate such growth in demand.

“As a high quality mid-priced oven, Donatello offers extreme versatility, and for pubs and takeaways, it is a sensible investment that is capable of cooking a wide variety of other dishes popular with their clientele, including baked potatoes, chicken and pasta dishes.”
