The Experience
The Real Wood Fired Pizza Experience
The Revival of the wood-fired oven and it’s time and flavor tested quality has arrived. The attraction and magic a traditional wood-fired oven creates is one of the most unique experiences in the culinary world today. Passionate about food, Embers offers a blend of both innovative and artisan cuisine. We are focused on delivering a memorable fare and seamless service to an event you are planning today.
Although we specialize in weddings, rehearsals and private parties, we customize our menus which best complement your entertaining or celebratory gathering. From pizza making parties, themed buffets, cocktail parties, and larger corporate functions, Embers is the unique choice for that perfect and memorable event.
Our wood-fired catering service area covers all of St Charles County along with its surrounding communities and can be available in most St Louis community locations with advanced notice.
Contact us to start the fun today.
<aOur Ovens
Meet our 48 inch Italian wood fired ovens which utilize local hardwoods for the 900 degrees necessary to accomplish that unique Neapolitan experience. Cooked in under 2 minutes, we have the ability to satisfy guests ranging from a small intimate gathering to that large corporate event looking to provide their associates and guests a unique and fresh experience. Unlike many mobile food vendors, we are not a food truck. We utilize our 1949 antique farm truck “Jolene” and our towed 8 foot catering unit “Minnie” to transport the 900 degree Italian wood fired ovens to your venue of choice. The mobile oven units are professionally designed and constructed then mounted accordingly to adhere to local fire and health department codes.
“Jolene”
Our 1949 antique catering truck “Jolene” boasts a 48 inch Valoriani wood fired oven which comes to us direct from Italy. Due to her size and weight, Jolene may not be available for your celebration due to the limited service space some venues offer. Distance from our Wentzville location is also limited and does incur an additional travel fee due to the annual heavy maintenance required and limited annual mileage set by the states motor vehicle division. Jolene helps set those farm themed weddings and private parties you are planning in days to come.
“Minnie”
Minnie helped Embers begin our catering journey in 2014. She offers a 48 inch Forno Bravo wood fired oven but has been installed on our 8 foot towed catering unit. We are able to place her in more intimate or space limited locations which satisfies most entertainment and event venues.

“Get Fresh with a Local”! When possible, we work with small local growers to gather those herbs, vegetables, and meat products to get the freshest ingredients for our creations. The fun begins when local, seasonal ingredients come to market where your menu creations become boundless.
Although we have created a menu which provides many delicious options, please do not hesitate to discuss ingredients that you may prefer or develop a special pizza for you and your guests.
