Chef Maaren

Over 15 years ago, Chef Maaren Spears created a spectacular pizza dough recipe.

From that recipe, we grew A Wandering Fire - our artisan wood-fired pizza catering company. Since then, we have been privileged to work with hundreds of people who enjoy the food and service that we provide. Through those experiences, we have connected with Pizza People and discovered a need within the pizza community: quality artisan Pizza dough made for high temperature ovens.

That’s where DōCō comes in. With a DōCō kit in your freezer, your pizza crust worries are over!

Stretching the fun since day one

At DōCō, we take play seriously. Learning how to make mistakes is a part of the fun. We wanted to bring our knowledge and skill to the table - literally.

We believe in sharing the comfort of good food with those you invite to dinner. The flavor that hides within is waiting for you.

There is something for all kinds of pizza people. Dough for your special someone? Pizza night with the kids? We have you covered.

Our slow fermented artisan dough brings a deep flavor and perfect texture to your meal.

Share your story with us!

A large part of our heart is the community of pizza people. After over a decade of celebrating all of life’s special moments together, we want to celebrate the ones we can’t make with you.

We are gathering a gallery of your memories to share the joy playing with your food can bring!
