Pizza and Gelato Making Class in Rome with Wine

Learn to make three Italian classics in one afternoon, tasting each one as you finish

A three-hour cooking class in Rome where you make Neapolitan pizza, creamy gelato and Roman supplì (crispy risotto balls with mozzarella) from scratch, guided by an expert chef. The class includes unlimited fine Italian wine and all ingredients. You choose between the full experience or gelato-only option at checkout. Public transport stops are nearby, and most dietary restrictions can be accommodated.

The experience

You start by learning pizza dough from the ground up: how to knead it, shape it and toss it into the right thickness. The chef walks you through selecting toppings and sauces, then you bake your own pizza and eat it while it's still warm. That's the first thing you've made with your hands in a Roman kitchen.

Next comes gelato. The chef shows you how the balance of ingredients and temperature creates that smooth, dense texture, and you'll make both classic flavors and your own combination. Then you move to supplì: the crispy risotto balls stuffed with melted mozzarella that Romans grab from bakeries on their way to work. You'll fry them yourself and taste the contrast between the crunchy outside and the creamy inside.

Throughout the class, you have unlimited fine Italian wine to sip as you work and taste. The whole thing runs three hours. Most dietary restrictions can be handled. The kitchen can work around gluten-free needs, though the experience isn't recommended for anyone with celiac disease. Public transport is nearby if you're getting there on your own.

Top questions

Can children come?

Yes. Ticket types: Child (7 to 17 years); Infant (under 7): free.

Can I just take the gelato-making class instead of the full pizza, gelato and supplì experience?

Yes. The listing offers two options at checkout: the full Pizza and Gelato Making Experience with wine, or Gelato Making by Colosseum if you want to focus on that one skill alone.

What exactly do I make and get to eat in this class?

You make three things from scratch: Neapolitan pizza (you knead the dough, shape it and choose toppings), traditional Italian gelato (both classic and custom flavors), and Roman supplì (risotto balls fried until crispy with mozzarella inside). You eat all three during the class.

Is wine included, or do I pay extra for it?

Fine Italian wine is included and unlimited throughout the three hours, so you taste it as you work and finish each dish.

Do I need cooking experience to join this class?

No. The class is designed for everyone, whether you've never cooked before or you're already experienced in the kitchen. The chef guides you through each step.

How do I get to the class location in Rome?

Public transportation options are available nearby, so you can reach it by metro or bus. Hotel pickup is not included, so you'll arrange your own transport to the venue.
