Private Pizza & Tiramisu Class at a Cesarina's home with tasting in Messina

About this tour

Learn to shape pizza dough and layer tiramisu in a Messinese home kitchen with a practising home cook. This three-hour private class walks you through both dishes from their foundations, then you'll sit down to eat what you've made alongside local wines. It's hands-on and unpretentious—the kind of cooking Sicilian families have done for generations. Families welcome.

Highlights

• Knead and stretch pizza dough under expert guidance
• Master tiramisu layering and flavour balance
• Eat your own creations with local wine pairings
• Learn family techniques passed down through generations
• Take home Le Cesarine apron as souvenir
• Small group in an authentic home setting

What to expect

You'll arrive at your host's home in Messina and move straight into the kitchen. Expect to get your hands floury—you're making pizza bases from scratch, learning the knack of stretching dough properly and understanding why resting times matter. Once that's underway, you'll pivot to tiramisu: whisking, soaking, layering. Your host will talk you through their approach, why they do things a certain way, what common mistakes look like. By the time you finish, hunger will be real. You'll sit down to taste both dishes warm (or chilled, in tiramisu's case), paired with wines from the region and water and coffee throughout.
