Private Experience
Your experience
Pasta frolla, sponge cake, and sponge dough are the foundation of any dessert. I will teach you the basics and then guide you to create more elaborate sweets. With shortcrust pastry, you can make various types of tarts, sweet or savory; sponge cake can be used for filled cakes with pastry cream or chocolate, and sponge dough can be crafted into fruity or jam-filled rolls. A foundational course that will unleash your creativity in the kitchen!

- My husband and I love to do cooking experiences when we visit other countries and we both agreed, this is the best one we have ever done. The food was fantastic, but Gabriella and her husband were fabulous, they were so welcoming and absolutely bewitching to be around. Gabriella's passion for food is infectious. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to create and eat gorgeous food. Thank you both so much, we had the best time!
- The cooking class was excellent! Gabriella’s passion for cooking is truly contagious, and her kindness made the course feel like home.”
- Wonderful from start to finish. Gabriella and her husband couldn’t have more welcoming. The food was delicious. Highly recommend!!!
- Gabriella was a very gracious host. We thoroughly enjoyed the food and her showing us the preparation and helping to put it together. It was a highlight of our trip.
- Gabriella and Fausto are very welcoming and friendly to invite you into their home. The cooking class itself is fun and practical, whether you are an experienced home chef or never cooked before. Gabriella gives good instructions and lets you do the ‘work’. There is not a single dull moment. After the preparations and cooking, you get to eat the pasta’s you prepared yourself and it is delicious! Gabriella even packed up the left overs for us to take with us! Thank you for this amazing experience.
