Effectiveness	Cooking level Requirement	Details	Other Requirements
10,000 coins per hour*****	Level 1	In an area where players are killing cows, pick up raw beef left on the ground and cook it on a range. Raw beef is rarely taken from the drops due to the fact that cowhides and bones are more effective for making money. Cooked meat, in addition to giving Cooking experience, sells for 63 coins each.
*****	Level 4 and up	Another money-making method is making chocolate dust. Chocolate dust is made from a chocolate bar and a knife. You use the knife on the chocolate bar and it makes chocolate dust. Using this method, you make 23 coins profit per chocolate bar. This is not the best money making method, but it only takes four game ticks (2.4 seconds) to make 1 chocolate dust.
*****	Level 40	Quick money can be gained if players is brave enough to buy cheap pizza bases from Fat Tony in Bandit’s Camp in Level 20 wilderness. They should bring nothing but 50 coins and travel from the Wilderness Volcano, fend off bandits, and finally they can reach his base. After buying them for 5 each, for a total of 10 (Tony’s maximum stock) players can travel back to safe places to make uncooked pizzas with cheese and tomatoes attained through respawn points in Aggie or Tony’s house, or buying them at the Grand Exchange. Uncooked pizzas currently sells for 1,649 coins each. However, the limit of this method is the restock rate of Tony’s pizza bases which is very slow, so world-switching may be necessary.	Combat 15
*****	Level 45	You can make some money and experience by cooking pizzas, albeit it might take a while. Purchase flour, tomatoes, Jugs of water and cheese off of the Grand Exchange for 357 coins. Alternately, acquire them on your own using any method you prefer.Even if you burn a few pizzas, you can still turn a profit as the number of cooked pizzas generally exceeds that of burnt ones. Ordinary pizzas sell for 1,663 each, with the end-profit being 1,306 coins each per cooked plain pizza. Adding cooked meat only results in a marginal increase of profit, which is why it’s not recommended to upgrade to meat pizzas and sell, as it takes extra time (but can earn you 26 experience points more per pizza).
*****	Level 55 and up	Another money-making method is upgrading previously cooked pizzas. At the Grand Exchange, buy plain pizza and anchovies, combine them, and sell the anchovy pizzas back for a profit of 101 coins. This may not seem like much, but considering how little time it takes to add anchovies to one pizza (players can make 14 pizzas in about 30 seconds), you can easily make 170,000 coins per hour. 39 Cooking experience is also received for every anchovy pizza you upgrade in this fashion, resulting in around 65,520 experience per hour. However, it is very difficult to buy the raw ingredients as they are not in high supply yet receive high demand (most likely due to this article).Lately, however, this method has not been as useful due to the Personalised Shops update, making plain pizzas almost worth more than anchovy pizzas! More recently, though, anchovy pizzas are seeing a steady recovery and soon will be much more profitable than topping pizzas normally and selling.
