Private Pasta & Tiramisu Class at a Cesarina's home with tasting in Pompei

About this tour

Learn to make two pasta dishes and tiramisu from a local home cook in Pompei over three hours. You'll work through each recipe step-by-step in her kitchen, then sit down to eat what you've prepared alongside regional wines. This is a genuine cooking lesson with a Cesarina—part of Italy's network of passionate home cooks who teach from their own homes. Families welcome, all ages catered for.

Highlights

• Hand-roll two traditional pasta shapes from scratch
• Master tiramisu layering technique from a local cook
• Eat your creations with wine pairing at table
• Learn regional tricks passed down through families
• Cook in an actual Pompei home, not a studio
• Take home an official Le Cesarine apron

What to expect

You'll arrive at your Cesarina's home and jump straight into the kitchen. She'll walk you through mixing flour and eggs, kneading pasta dough, and shaping it by hand—no machines, no shortcuts. Then you'll layer the tiramisu, letting it chill while you tidy up. The second half is the meal: you sit together and eat the pasta and dessert you've just made, with local wine and coffee included. Expect flour under your fingernails, honest conversation, and a kitchen that smells like home cooking rather than a school.
