Venice: Pasta and Tiramisu Cooking Class

About this tour

Roll up your sleeves in a Venice kitchen to shape fresh pasta and layer tiramisu from scratch, guided by a local cook who shares proper technique without the theatre. You'll use quality ingredients provided on the spot, then sit down to eat what you've made alongside flowing wine, limoncello, and espresso. Three hours gets you fed, slightly tipsy, and armed with skills you'll actually use at home. The Dorsoduro neighbourhood's cafés and galleries are steps away if you want to wander after.

Highlights

• Make tagliatelle and ravioli by hand
• Layer and chill your own tiramisu
• Eat your creations with wine included
• Learn pasta ratios and tiramisu timing
• Small group in working Venetian kitchen
• Limoncello and coffee finish

What to expect

You'll arrive in a neighbourhood kitchen and get straight to it—no long intro. The host walks you through pasta dough (flour, eggs, salt, technique), shows you the kneading rhythm, then lets you roll and cut. Next comes tiramisu: dipping, layering, understanding why it needs time. There's wine to sip between steps. Once everything's assembled and chilled enough, you gather around a table and actually eat. The portions are real—this isn't a tasting, it's a meal. Expect flour on your apron and honest feedback on your shapes.
