Wonderful and fun class....

Wonderful and fun class. Small enough so everyone got attention, but with enough people to make it fun. Pizza dough making was easier than I expected, and the final product was delicious. Great gelato too. Highly recommend.

Unforgettable day of learning new skills and enjoying great food and company.

This class is so much fun! It takes place at a small farm just outside of Florence. Our experience started with wine, beer and snacks with introductions by our tour leaders Gloria, Tizzius, and Thomas. From there we went to gelato making led by Gloria. She did a great job of explaining the process and helping everyone in the group pick their own flavor and prepare gelato from scratch. While the gelato was freezing Thomas and Tizzius teamed up to show us the secrets of pizza making. We prepared our own dough and sauce. Then everyone got to shape their pizza and pick their own toppings. The adventure is capped off with a great dinner where we got to know our class mates and enjoyed our pizza and gelato. Plenty of wine and beer throughout the class.
