It was an amazing experience! Julia did a great job teaching us all about gelato and the difference between the real gelato they make and the fake stuff sold most places. Lots of hands-on experience for our 11 yr old. He loved it!! We also got to meet her dad (the owner) & hear his story and watch him work with the yeast for the Easter breads they make. An absolute joy! It is a long walk from city center & not all side walks. I recommend a cab if you have kids.

Delicious and fun!

Yummy!

Amy_C, Jul 2024

Julia was informative and engaging. We made our own gelato, and had a taste of every flavor of gelato in the shop! This was a great event.

Response from Host, Aug 2024

Thank you so much! We like to share our “natural for flavor” philosophy! It was a pleasure.

Gelato with kiddos

Pam_M, Jun 2024

I was very disappointed. There were 5 kids-ages 5-12 and their grandpa. The class was mostly observation, with little hands on. Very costly for the value of the product.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

I’m really sorry if you not enjoy it. Maybe you haven’t read what the gelato class is: usually we talk about gelato, about its history then you taste every flavor and also produce one flavor of gelato. They helped Giulia to make gelato and they were very happy about it. I hope that one day you come back in our shop to have another experience with us.

Loved it!

Emily_F, Jun 2024

Giulia was wonderful and our 6 year old loved getting to taste all the different kinds of gelato! Cremeria Opera had really wonderful fresh gelato. We can’t wait to get home and make some of our own!

Great experience! Being taken into the real Gelato production of Italy. We organized for our daughters 9 birthday and she been given option to help the owner with some small handling 😉 Great tasting, explaining and doing

Maestro!

jooabird, May 2022

Mirko is a true maestro but more importantly a passionate and wonderful all around human being. A patient and engaged teacher, he will explain it all to you and his excitement about the process is contagious. He is rightly proud of his out-of-this-world pistacchio but make sure to ask him about the fascinating flavors he concocted for The Rolling Stones, Ennio Morricone, and many others. World-class gelato and gelatiere. We look forward to seeing him and his brand more in the US!

The King of Gelato Reigns Supreme!

Deborah_M, May 2022

The passion of Mirko is enthusiastically reflected in his choice of the best ingredients, creative flavors and painstaking processes in making the best gelato in Tuscany. Four of us had an evening class where were learned how to make gelato and taste the many flavors available. We have now been spoiled. No other gelato since has measured up in freshness, flavor and texture. Thank you so much for such a great experience!
