Making Group Pizza Orders Simple and Stress-Free

Who We Are

We're a team of pizza party planning enthusiasts and the creators of PizzaCalculator.ca. Over the years, we've organized countless events for groups of all sizes—from intimate family dinners with a dozen people to corporate gatherings of 100+ attendees. Through all these experiences, we've learned one universal truth: ordering the right amount of pizza is both an art and a science.

Our journey into pizza planning began out of necessity. After too many events where we either ran out of pizza (leaving hungry guests) or ordered way too much (resulting in days of leftovers), we knew there had to be a better way. We started developing formulas, taking into account factors like group composition, appetite levels, event type, and pizza sizes.

What started as personal notes evolved into a comprehensive system that we've now shared with the world through PizzaCalculator.ca. Our goal is simple: help people avoid the stress and uncertainty of pizza ordering by providing accurate, reliable calculations backed by real-world experience.

Our Expertise & Experience

Areas of Specialization

  • Event Pizza Planning: Calculated pizza requirements for 200+ events including birthday parties, corporate lunches, sports team celebrations, and family gatherings
  • Group Size Optimization: Experience with groups ranging from 5 to 150+ people, understanding how different group dynamics affect pizza consumption
  • Pizza Chain Knowledge: Extensive familiarity with offerings from major chains (Domino's, Pizza Hut, Papa John's, Little Caesars) and local pizzerias
  • Budget Management: Helping organizers maximize value while ensuring guest satisfaction through strategic pizza ordering

Our approach combines practical experience with data-driven analysis. We've tracked pizza consumption patterns across different demographics, event types, and time slots to refine the calculator's accuracy. This isn't just theory—it's based on real events with real people and real results.

About PizzaCalculator.ca

PizzaCalculator.ca is a free online tool we created to share our pizza planning expertise with anyone who needs it. The calculator takes the guesswork out of group pizza orders by considering multiple factors:

  • Number of adults and children in your group
  • Appetite levels (light, average, or hungry eaters)
  • Preferred pizza sizes (small, medium, large)
  • Standard slice counts per pizza size

The tool instantly calculates exactly how many pizzas you need, helping you avoid over-ordering or under-ordering. It's been used by thousands of people planning events of all types, from casual movie nights to major celebrations.

The Story Behind PizzaCalculator.ca

It all started with a simple question at a party: "How many pizzas should we get?"

What followed was complete chaos. Confused texts flying back and forth. Wild estimates from well-meaning friends. Someone claimed they'd eat "just one slice" (they ate four). Someone confidently said "let's just get 10" without even knowing how many people were coming. We ended up with too much pineapple pizza (controversial, we know) and not enough of anything else.

That frustrating experience led us down a path of research and experimentation. We started keeping notes at every event we organized, tracking how much pizza people actually consumed versus how much we had ordered. We analyzed patterns based on age groups, event types, time of day, and other factors.

Eventually, we developed a reliable system that consistently resulted in satisfied guests and minimal waste. Friends and colleagues started asking us for advice on their own events, which sparked the idea: why not create a tool that anyone could use?

And so PizzaCalculator.ca was born—fueled by frustration, leftover crusts, and a genuine desire to help others avoid the pizza planning mistakes we had made.
