The experience
You arrive at a cooking studio in central Milan and spend the next three hours learning the techniques behind two of Italy's most iconic dishes. An English-speaking chef walks you through the process of making authentic pizza dough and gelato, sharing the methods that make each one work. Because the group stays small, you get personalized attention rather than watching from a distance. Your hands are in the dough, your spoon is in the gelato base, and the chef corrects your technique as you go.
The class builds toward a meal: you eat the pizza you made, taste the gelato you churned, and pair both with Tuscan wine and fresh olive oil tastings. Soft drinks are available for children. By the end, you walk out with a certificate and a recipe booklet so you can recreate what you learned once you're home. The studio accommodates vegetarians and can work around food allergies or intolerances if you mention them when you book.
Top questions
Can children come?
Yes. Ticket types: Child (4 to 12 years); Infant (under 4): free.
How much experience do I need to take a pizza and gelato cooking class in Milan?
None. The chef teaches the fundamentals from the start, so whether you've never made pizza or you cook regularly, you'll learn the Italian techniques that matter. The small group size means the instructor adjusts to where each person is.
What do I actually eat at the end of the class?
You eat the pizza and gelato you made during the session, paired with Tuscan wine and olive oil tastings. Dinner is based on what you've prepared, so the meal is part of the learning, not separate from it.
Can I take this class if I have a food allergy or dietary restriction?
Yes. The class is suitable for vegetarians, and the studio can work around food intolerances and allergies if you let them know when you book. Let them know in advance so they can prepare.
What happens if I have mobility issues or need special accommodations?
Tell the studio in advance about any mobility needs or accessibility requirements, and they'll do their best to accommodate you. Specialized infant seats are also available if you're bringing a young child.
Do I get anything to take home besides the skills?
Yes. You receive a Certificate of Attendance and a Recipe Booklet with the methods and proportions you learned, so you can make pizza and gelato again once you're back home.
