Here’s an overview of your activity

Immerse yourself in an authentic Mediterranean culinary experience! Beyond mastering the art of handmade pasta, you’ll work with exceptional, high-quality ingredients. Craft fresh fettuccine, ravioli, or orecchiette using premium local semolina (Hartweizengriess) and fresh farmer’s eggs for a rich, authentic flavor.

Our pasta dishes are paired with exquisite sauces, such as a slow-cooked ragù or a vibrant seasonal vegetable medley. Enjoy the creations with a side of homemade bread—fragrant and irresistibly fresh.

To complete the experience, indulge in a tasting of exquisite wines from top Italian producers, thoughtfully selected to showcase the best of Italy’s vineyards. From crisp whites to robust reds, each sip complements the flavors of your culinary creations.

End on a sweet note by preparing an unforgettable tiramisu: creamy Italian mascarpone, top-quality Swiss chocolate, and a touch of magic that makes it truly irresistible. This isn’t just a cooking class—it’s a sensory adventure filled with tradition, flavor, and premium ingredients. Book now and take home the authentic taste of Italy!
