"They have to toss dough. They get judged on their pizzazz -- you know, them having fun and passion -- the California creativity of inventing the pizza, and then they'll cook that pizza and it'll go to the judges. That pizza will become a special for the month, and the proceeds go to those charities," Aaron Ross, California Pizza Kitchen general manager said.
