Over three hours, a chef guides you through kneading dough for tagliatelle, farfalle and maltagliati, then teaches you the layering technique behind Italy's most famous dessert. You'll taste several tiramisu variations paired with Sicilian wine, and walk away with genuine techniques and recipes to recreate at home.

What to expect

You'll start by working with raw flour and eggs, learning the exact kneading motion and resting times that produce silky sheets of pasta. The chef demonstrates rolling, cutting and forming different shapes—tagliatelle ribbons, irregular maltagliati, butterfly farfalle—then shows you which sauces match each type. After a short break, you move to tiramisu: building layers of mascarpone cream and coffee-soaked biscuits, then customising the top with cocoa, chocolate or fruit. The session wraps with a seated tasting of the tiramisu you've made, alongside glasses of Sicilian wine.
