A PRACTICAL SMALL BUSINESS YOU CAN START FROM HOME
You do not need a shop, commercial kitchen or expensive equipment to begin.
The R888 Pizza Cone Business Starter Kit gives you the essential equipment, Mini and Maxi Pizza Cones, recipes and practical business training you need to start making Pizza Cones, test your market and find your first customers.
You provide the fillings, the effort and the customers. We provide the system to help you get started.
Courier fee excluded. A suitable air fryer is required for the PizzaFry7 starter system.
Can I actually make money selling Pizza Cones?
A Pizza Cone business works because you start with a relatively low-cost product and add value through your fillings, presentation and selling location.
As a practical example, a Mini Pizza Cone may cost around R15 to prepare and could sell for approximately R30–R40. A Maxi Pizza Cone may cost around R30 to prepare and could sell for approximately R60–R70, depending on your fillings, market and selling environment.
Example: If you sell 20 Maxi Pizza Cones at R65 each, your sales would be R1,300. At an estimated R30 product cost each, the gross margin would be approximately R700 before other business expenses.
The objective is not to become a large business overnight. Start small, learn what your customers enjoy, control your costs and reinvest your earnings as demand grows.
These figures are examples only. Your actual costs, selling prices, sales and profit will depend on your ingredients, location, operating expenses and ability to attract customers.

HOW DO I ACTUALLY START?
1. Order your R888 Starter Kit
Your starter equipment, Pizza Cones and training material give you a practical starting point.
2. Learn the basic system
Work through the training material, recipes and preparation process before trying to sell.
3. Choose your fillings and calculate your prices
Start with a small menu. Know what each Pizza Cone costs you before deciding what to charge.
4. Make and test your first Pizza Cones
Use your PizzaFry7 with a suitable air fryer. Practise until you are happy with the product you are offering customers.
5. Find your first customers
Start close to home: friends, family, colleagues, local groups, functions or suitable community selling opportunities.
6. Sell, learn, reorder and grow
Watch what customers buy, improve your offering, reorder Pizza Cones and reinvest as demand develops.
You do not have to build a large business on Day One. Your first objective is simply to make a good product and find your first paying customers.
WHERE CAN I SELL PIZZA CONES?
Pizza Cones are flexible because they can be sold in many different environments. Start where access is easiest and costs are low.
From home
Take pre-orders from neighbours, friends, family and local WhatsApp groups.
At workplaces
Supply offices, workshops, factories or staff groups where convenient food is in demand.
At markets and community events
Markets, fairs, school events, sports days and local functions can provide access to larger groups of customers, subject to the organiser’s requirements.
For parties and private functions
Mini Pizza Cones can work particularly well for platters, children’s parties, birthdays and informal catering.
Through delivery or collection orders
Build a small local customer base using WhatsApp, Facebook and community groups.
As a pop-up food business
Once demand grows, you can test busier selling locations before investing in larger commercial equipment.
The best place to start is usually not the biggest market. It is the place where you can reach your first 10 paying customers with the least risk and expense.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN MY BUSINESS GROWS?
The R888 Starter Kit is designed to help you start small without committing to expensive commercial equipment before you have customers.
1. Reorder Pizza Cones
When you begin selling consistently, simply order additional Mini and Maxi Pizza Cones as you need them.
2. Increase your production capacity
When seven cones at a time are no longer enough, you can move from the PizzaFry7 starter system to the larger UniTray12 production system.
3. Add commercial baking equipment
As your sales justify the investment, the UniOven provides a dedicated higher-capacity baking solution for a more serious Pizza Cone operation.
4. Add hot display and serving capacity
The UniView allows you to hold prepared Pizza Cones ready for customers during busier trading periods.
5. Grow according to demand — not hope
You do not need to buy everything at the beginning. Let real customer demand determine when you invest in the next level.
The R888 Starter Kit is therefore not the final business system. It is your low-risk entry point into a business that can grow with you.
WHY START WITH PIPING HOT PIZZA CONES?
Piping Hot Pizza Cones is not a newly invented online opportunity. The business has been developing Pizza Cone products, equipment, production methods and practical selling systems in South Africa for more than a decade.
Real product experience
The system has developed through actual production, markets, customer sales, equipment design and practical problem-solving — not theory alone.
A complete product ecosystem
You are not buying an isolated tray. Mini and Maxi Pizza Cones, PizzaFry7, UniTray12, UniOven, UniView, recipes and training material form a system that can grow as your needs change.
Practical business training included
The Starter Kit includes a digital Business Builder Training Manual of more than 160 pages to help you understand production, costing, selling and business development.
Start small before investing heavily
The R888 Starter Kit allows you to learn the product and test demand before considering larger commercial equipment.
Products available for repeat orders
When customers start buying, you can reorder Mini and Maxi Pizza Cones rather than having to manufacture the cone shells yourself.
Our objective is not simply to sell you a starter kit. We want the starter kit to become the beginning of a customer who successfully makes, sells, reorders and grows.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do I need commercial equipment to start?
No. The R888 Starter Kit is designed to let you begin with the PizzaFry7 and a suitable air fryer. Commercial equipment becomes relevant only when your sales justify greater production capacity.
Do I need previous food-business experience?
No. The included recipes and Business Builder Training Manual are intended to guide you through the basic production, costing and business process.
Are fillings included?
No. You choose and purchase your own fillings. This allows you to control your menu, food cost and selling price.
Can I buy more Pizza Cones after the starter pack is finished?
Yes. Mini and Maxi Pizza Cones can be reordered separately as your sales develop.
Can I add extra bags to my first order?
Yes. Additional Mini and Maxi Pizza Cone bags can be added if you want more stock from the beginning.
Is courier delivery included in the R888 price?
No. Courier charges are calculated separately.
Am I guaranteed to make money?
No business can guarantee sales or profit. Your results will depend on factors such as your selling price, ingredient costs, location, customer demand, marketing and how actively you operate the business.
Where am I allowed to sell food?
Requirements differ between municipalities, markets, event organisers and selling environments. You are responsible for checking and complying with the applicable food, trading and venue requirements in your area.
READY TO TEST YOUR OWN PIZZA CONE BUSINESS?
You do not need to build the entire business today. Take the first practical step: start with the R888 Starter Kit, learn the system, make a product you are proud to sell and find your first paying customers.
If the market responds, grow from there.
