Itinerary

Make your own way to the Lucca shuttle terminal at 10am in the morning. Board your minibus, and travel to Florence in time for your cooking class.

Meet your chef, then head inside the venue of the cooking class, where you’ll learn to make pizza and gelato like a pro.

Creating your pizza from scratch, you’ll first knead a light and stretchy yeast dough for the base. Whip up a fresh tomato sauce to cover the base, then bake it just as a true pizzaiolo would. While the pizza bakes, learn how to make authentic gelato and discover how different heating and freezing techniques impact the ingredients.

With your creations ready, you’ll sit down to eat with your chef and group. Before you leave, you’ll receive the recipes and a certificate that reflects your pizza- and gelato-making prowess.

We had a wonderful time at the pizza and gelato cooking class. The atmosphere was friendly, the class well organised and the chef was engaging, funny, and genuinely interested in teaching us. I highly recommend this fun class!
