This cooking class experience was amazing. We have a 13, 10, and 8 year old. They loved the experience of making pizza and gelato. This was their favorite pizza of all the ones they had during our week in Italy. The Chef was very knowledgeable and very enjoyable to talk to. I would recommend this to anyone visiting Florence.

Amazing experience. Chef was incredible and very interactive. The steps and process was great to participate with. It was a small group with only 2 families. We made pizza, cookies and gelato to eat for lunch. The authentic Florence pizza was amazing. Great event to do whilst in Florence and worth the time and money.
Fun cooking class

My family and I enjoyed the cooking class and loved sharing it with lots of other cool families. We will certainly replicate making the pizza at home. It was fun watching the chef make the gelato and sorbet and everything tasted fantastic! Thank you for a fun class and a great way to spend our afternoon in Florence!
Best pizza I've ever had!

My family was looking forward to this particular outing very much. We were not disappointed. It was well put together, clean, the place they held the class was beautiful. We made pizzas, gelato and sorbet and the most amazing cookies made from the egg whites not used. Nothing went to waste. We enjoyed eating everything we made along with some delicious wine. The chef and assistant were so fun, and the time went by too fast. I would highly recommend setting aside a day to do this class. you won't be disappointed.
Delicious fun in Florence!
