Private Experience
Your experience
- Handmade scialatielli with fresh seasonal toppings
- Filled ravioli
- Tiramisù
Homemade pasta in Sorrento is an experience that encapsulates the taste of quiet family Sundays and traditions passed down through the ages.
Back in 1979, a renowned Sorrento chef experimented, trial after trial, to create "scialatiello"-a fresh, rustic pasta designed to capture every flavor of the sauces. During this culinary experience, I will share with you the secrets of this special pasta so that you can experience the magic at home as well. Next, we will dive into preparing the pasta for ravioli alla caprese, and most importantly, I will teach you how to create the fragrant filling that will make them irresistible. We will conclude with an Italian classic: the fluffy tiramisu.

- Laura and her son hosted my mother and I for a cooing class. What an amazing evening!! It was just the two of us in the class so it was very personable. Started the night off with an assortment of amazing appetizers and some wine. Then the cooking started. We made Tiramisu, gnocchi sorrento, and potato pasta…. AMAZING! Laura and her son were very kind and informative. We even sat together for a while discussing differences in Italian and Canadian culture which was awesome. We got a copy of the recipes as well. 10/10 would recommend this to anyone!
- Mama Laura and Nikola were wonderful hosts and gave us the warmest welcome into their family home. We started the experience with delicious antipasti and wine while listening to a classy playlist. Then the magic began! We began the cooking lesson by learning how to make the best Tiramisu we’ve had in our lives, then learned how to cook fresh gnocchi with a tomato base. Lastly we learned how to cook dry pasta and got to make the Pasta e Patate Provolona AKA 5P! (Pasta, Potatoes, Pork Belly, Provolona, and Peppers). Everything was so delicious and we enjoyed every minute of the experience. Laura, once again thank you so much for your warm welcome and sharing your family secret recipes! Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Sorrento!
- We thoroughly enjoyed the cooking class so much with our hosts. Making the gnocchi with the smoked Gouda was my favorite. My husband enjoyed laying the tiramisu and jamming to euro rock in the kitchen!
- We had a wonderful experience with Laura, and learned a lot! A highlight of our trip to Sorrento. Laura is very welcoming and patient. We are excited to make the recipes at home. Thank you Laura!
- Our time at this cooking class was so memorable and authentic! We felt like we had such an intimate cooking experience and will be making this recipe for years to come! Didn’t know what to expect and honestly loved every minute! Would do something like this in every country.
