Master the most delicious of all Italian arts from the pros, discover the tricks of the trade, and make authentic, genuine pizza and gelato. Meet our expert "Pizzaiolo" and follow his cues, he will illustrate, and demonstrate, the secrets that lie behind the picture-perfect, scrumptious pizza.

In the fascinating ambience of our cooking studio, the chef will show you how to make pliable paper-thin yeast dough, kneading it to perfection. He will give you tips on how to prepare a zesty, yet light tomato sauce to spread on top. Aprons on:  it's your turn to measure the ingredients, knead and roll. 

While the dough rests, enjoy the friendly and fancy atmosphere of the cooking class before learning the unique, trick of the trade: making gelato and the cone for it! Hear all about the history of Italian ice cream, discover the raw ingredients, and learn where the best are produced by your entertaining chef. Mix the ingredients and whet your appetite watching the ingredients melt into the cream. 

While the gelato churns its way to perfection your chef will show you how to combine the ingredients to make the batter and cook your cone, and once it’s done you can get back to your pizza. It’s time to roll out the dough, choose your favourite toppings, season and flavour it to taste, and pop it into the oven!
