What is Domino's annual European Fastest Pizza Maker Competition?

Reports state that as part of the competition contestants have to prepare three large 13-inch pizzas, each topped with 40 slices of pepperoni, 142g of mushrooms, 198g of diced cheese along with a  Domino's signature pizza sauce. The contestants are then judged on their ability to make the pizza as per Domino's strict standards, according to reports.

Each contestant is penalised with 15 seconds per error if the pepperoni slice is in the wrong place or the dough has not been stretched to the right size.

Jaff's statement on his victory

Jaff who has won the competition three times has been awarded a unique trophy -a solid gold cast of his pizza-preparing hands.

"Customers don’t always realise the skill that goes into making a Domino’s pizza, from hand-stretching the fresh dough and leveling the sauce with my own personal ladle, to perfectly placing the fresh toppings," said Jaff in an interview with a local news channel, after winning the competition.

The plaque bearing his gold pizza-making hands will apparently be on display at the London's Portsmouth Fratto branch of the pizza company where Jaff trained and perfected his skills for over 10 years.
