Gelato & Italian Biscotti Masterclass | Private

With gelaterie (ice cream shops) on every cobblestoned corner, and flavors ranging from traditional to artisan, Italian gelato is as mouth-wateringly delicious as it is culturally significant. And when the summer heat sets in, gelato is definitely one of the best ways to cool down from the Roman sun!

Perfect for kids and adults alike, this cooking class is all about letting you live “la dolce vita”. You’ll have the unmissable opportunity to customize and create your own classic Italian gelato, using all your favorite flavors of chocolate, fruit, and more.

First pick your favorite flavor of gelato

Choose your gelato flavors from fresh seasonal fruits, (like strawberries from nearby Nemi or Sorrento-sourced lemons). You can also indulge into mint-green pistachios, silky dark Perugia chocolate, and, of course, Nutella gelato.

With these flavors in mind, you can now start getting busy in the kitchen. Discover how to make this famous dessert by practicing the traditional techniques for making sweet gelato with your engaging English-speaking chef.

Then create another iconic Italian dessert

While your gelato is in the freezer, you’ll learn how to make crunchy Italian biscotti – the perfect partner to gelato. Your chef will show you how to bake the best Italian biscotti, and how easy they are to make at home.

If you are in the mood for a different classic Italian dessert, you can also create the perfect “pick-me-up”: rich, creamy tiramisù. Either way, you will be able to recreate two famously delicious desserts after your visit to Rome.

For visitors who want a deeper experience than just visiting a Roman gelateria, this is the class for you. Best of all, we’ll email you the recipes afterwards so you and your kids can continue to make gelato at home.
