Naples Pizza and Tiramisu Cooking Class: Make Both from Scratch

You knead the dough, you shape it, you pull it from the wood-fired oven yourself.

A hands-on cooking class in Naples where you make Neapolitan pizza from scratch and prepare tiramisu step by step, guided by a local chef. You'll bake your pizza in a traditional wood-fired oven, layer the tiramisu yourself, then sit down to eat both with a drink included. The class runs three hours and you leave with recipes to recreate the dishes at home.

The experience

You start by mixing and kneading pizza dough from the beginning, learning how a local chef handles the ingredients and shapes it into the right thickness. Then comes the topping (fresh San Marzano tomatoes prepared right there, along with other ingredients you choose), and the moment you slide your pizza onto the peel and into the wood-fired oven to watch it bake. While that's happening, you move to tiramisu: layering mascarpone cream, coffee-soaked biscuits, and cocoa, picking up the technique that makes it velvety instead of heavy.

The class is built for couples, families, and friends who want to actually cook, not watch a demonstration. A live guide in English, Spanish, Italian, or French walks you through each step, and all the equipment and ingredients are there. You don't bring anything or source anything ahead of time. After you've finished both dishes, you sit down together to eat the pizza and tiramisu you've made, with wine, beer, or a soft drink included, plus limoncello with the dessert. You also get a personalized cooking certificate and the recipes written down so you can make these at home.

The three-hour window gives you real time to work without rushing through the techniques. Infants can come in a stroller, and anyone under 18 needs a parent or guardian there, but the class is designed to work for everyone. There's no fitness requirement or prior cooking experience needed.

The class is suitable for everyone, including people with no cooking experience. The local chef guides you through each step, from mixing the dough to layering the tiramisu.
