“I had so much fun learning to make pasta and tiramisu. I learned new techniques and about the different flours here in Italy. Everyone in the class made their own dough, rolled it out and then cut it into noodles. So much fun. Then we learned to make tiramisu. My husband and I ate too much of our portion of the mascarpone filling for the tiramisu we didn’t have enough left to cover the top but who cares!! It was delicious and it still tasted heavenly. We then had our pasta prepared with a sauce of our choice and that was so good. This class is fun and Frederico is…”

“The Milan Cooking Class: Authentic Pizza & Gelato Making with Matteo was an absolute highlight. We made pizza and gelato — and even got to learn how to make our own waffle cones! Matteo was an excellent teacher, sharing new techniques for pizza-making that my wife and I had never seen before. Both the pizza and gelato turned out perfectly and were surprisingly simple to make. Highly recommend this class if you have the chance!”

“The pasta cooking class at La Rocca with Chef Marco was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Marco was welcoming and attentive, guiding us through each step with clear, easy-to-follow instructions. All the ingredients we used were grown on his own land, which made the experience feel even more authentic and special. After the hands-on cooking, Marco prepared the pasta for us, and we enjoyed a delicious meal together. It was a wonderful way to spend the day, and I highly recommend this class to anyone visiting the area. We can’t wait to put our skills to the test back home”
