Do I need any cooking experience?

No. The class is designed for all skill levels. Your local chef will guide you through each step, from kneading dough to layering tiramisu.

What exactly will I learn to make?

You'll prepare fresh pasta from scratch (learning to roll, shape, and cut by hand) and authentic tiramisu. Both are then tasted during the session.

How many people are typically in a class?

It's a small-group, home-style setting, which means you receive personalised instruction and a more intimate experience than large cooking school tours.

What's included in the EUR 19 price?

All ingredients, kitchen equipment, instruction from a local chef, and the food you prepare and taste. Beverages may vary—confirm with the supplier if wine or water is included.

Can I take my pasta and tiramisu home?

Typically you'll taste what you make on-site as part of the experience. Confirm with your chef if portions can be boxed to take with you.

How long does the class last and what time does it run?

The class is 2 hours and 30 minutes. Check the booking page for specific start times, which may vary by season and group size.
