About this tour
Roll up your sleeves at a Florence cooking studio to learn pasta-making from scratch, guided by a professional chef. Over three hours, you'll craft two pasta varieties—one egg-enriched, one semolina-based—then prepare fresh sauces to match. The class wraps with tiramisu assembly and Italian aperitivo techniques, finishing with coffee and limoncello in proper Italian fashion.
Highlights
- Hand-roll two distinct fresh pasta types with proper technique
- Prepare vibrant sauces from seasonal ingredients on the spot
- Master tiramisu layering and flavour balancing
- Learn to build a proper Italian Spritz
- Eat everything you've made, paired with wines and limoncello
What to expect
You'll start with Prosecco in hand at the studio on Via Scialoja, then move straight to the pasta station. Expect flour under your fingernails and a chef correcting your hand position—it's hands-on, not a lecture. You'll knead, roll, and shape two pastas back-to-back, tasting each with freshly made sauce. The tiramisu segment moves faster; you're layering rather than building from scratch. Mid-way through, you'll mix and taste a Spritz. The final hour is eating: everything lands on your plate with wine, coffee, and limoncello at the end.
