Full description Join a fun and immersive Italian cooking class where you'll learn to make one of Italy's most iconic dishes—fresh handmade pasta—alongside the sweet art of traditional gelato. Perfect for food enthusiasts, families, and curious travelers, this hands-on culinary experience introduces you to the heart of Italian cuisine with the expert guidance of professional chefs who will make you feel right at home in the kitchen.

Your journey begins with a step-by-step lesson on how to prepare authentic egg-based pasta dough. Using fresh, simple ingredients, your chef will show you the essential techniques to create a smooth and elastic dough that forms the base for many traditional Italian pasta varieties. Once the dough is ready, you’ll shape it into two classic pasta types, all while receiving helpful tips to recreate these techniques with confidence once you're back home.

To complete your pasta dishes, you’ll also learn how to prepare two seasonal sauces, selected by the chef to complement the pasta you've made. Whether it's a light vegetable-based sauce or a rich tomato blend, each preparation emphasizes fresh, local ingredients and traditional methods passed down through generations. This part of the class offers a real taste of authentic Italian flavors and the culinary heritage that defines them.

While your pasta dough rests, shift gears and discover another Italian favorite—gelato. In this part of the class, the chef will lead a demonstration where you'll explore the history of gelato, the traditional ingredients that give it its creamy texture and rich flavor, and the methods used to create this sweet delight. You’ll also get expert advice on how to spot genuine gelaterias during your travels in Italy, ensuring a truly authentic dessert experience wherever you go.

At the end of the workshop, you'll enjoy a well-deserved tasting of your freshly prepared pasta dishes and a refreshing serving of gelato in a warm, social setting. It’s the perfect moment to relax, reflect on what you've learned, and share in the joy of Italian cooking.

As a bonus, you’ll receive a digital recipe booklet with all the dishes prepared during the class, so you can continue your culinary journey at home and recreate authentic Italian pasta and gelato for friends and family.

This pasta and gelato making class is also ideal for vegetarians, with vegetarian options always available. If you or any member of your group have food allergies or intolerances, simply let the team know in advance so your experience can be tailored to your needs.
