How do you serve the Antipasti Pull-Apart Pizza at shows? At the first show I demo'd it we all just pulled it apart and it didn't work too well - some of the toppings fell off. Plus I have concern that not everyone's hands are clean. :eek: At home for my family I cut it with the pizza cutter, how do you do it at shows?
 
We made it at my last show and I put the mini-serving spatula out with it. The guests could use the spatula to easily separate the pieces and cut through the cheese as well as use it to scoop up any toppings that fell off.

We had it at our cluster meeting last night and this is how we served it, too.

Thanks for the suggestions. The mini-serving spatula is the way we'll serve it.
 
At the show I made it at, we also used the spatula. I made it a point to leave it on the stone with the pizza, so people wouldn't use their grubby hands... :yuck:
 
Some of the toppings are going to fall off, that's the nature of this kind of pizza. I use the small bamboo tongs to serve them.
 
I've used the mini serving spatula and the nylen knife to "assist" in the pulling apart of the pizza.
