Roll pasta by hand, make tiramisu, taste what you've built

A hands-on pasta and tiramisu class in Maranello held in a local home with a Cesarina (home cook) who teaches you to roll sfoglia by hand and prepare two pasta types from scratch, plus the iconic tiramisu. The class runs three hours, includes an Italian aperitivo, water, wine and coffee, and stays small at a maximum of 12 people.

The Experience

Maranello's Cesarine hosts open their homes for this cooking class built around making two pasta dishes and tiramisu from the ground up. You'll learn to roll sfoglia, the fresh pasta sheet, by hand, the foundational skill that opens up dozens of Italian dishes. Your Cesarina teaches the family recipes she's used for years, walking you through each step as you work alongside other guests. The class runs three hours and wraps with a tasting of everything you've made.

The aperitivo arrives first (prosecco and nibbles to settle in), then you move straight to the pasta. Your host shows you the technique, then you do it, hands in the dough, feeling the texture shift as you work. After the two pasta types, you move to tiramisu, the layered dessert that closes nearly every Italian meal. Water, wine and coffee flow throughout, and the small group size (no more than 12) means your Cesarina can watch what you're doing and correct the grip or the pressure without shouting over a crowd.

The class is taught in English or Italian, depending on the group. Public transportation runs near the home, so you can reach it without a car. You leave with the recipes, the muscle memory of how the dough should feel, and a sense of how these dishes fit into the rhythm of an Italian table.
