3 hours · starts 15:00 · Daily · Milan
Highlights
- Hand-stretch and bake your own Neapolitan-style pizza
- Churn fresh gelato from scratch — and taste it
- Small group, hands-on, with an English-speaking chef
- Sit-down dinner of everything you made, with wine
- Take home a recipe booklet and a certificate of attendance
Make two of Italy's most loved things — pizza and gelato — with your own hands, in a working cooking studio a couple of minutes from Milano Centrale.
This is a hands-on class, not a demo. With an English-speaking chef guiding a small group, you'll mix and stretch a real pizza base, top and bake it, then churn fresh gelato and learn why good texture matters more than sugar. When everything's ready you sit down and eat the full meal you cooked, with Italian wine and an olive-oil tasting (soft drinks for the kids).
You'll leave with a recipe booklet and a certificate of attendance — and the muscle memory to pull it off again at home. It's a relaxed, social evening that works just as well for couples, families and curious solo travellers.

The pizza and gelato cooking class in Milan felt like stepping into a local's kitchen, where the scents of fresh dough and sweet gelato filled the air. I was genuinely excited to learn the secrets behind making these beloved Italian dishes. It was such a hands-on, intimate experience, and I felt a real connection to the food and the people teaching us. With every knead of the dough and every scoop of gelato, I felt a deeper appreciation for Italian cuisine. The joy of enjoying my own creations at the end was such a rewarding moment—one that I’ll cherish forever.

This cooking class was a true journey into the heart of Italian cuisine! With the guidance of professional chefs, we prepared pizza dough from scratch and learned the perfect techniques for baking it to perfection. After cooking, we sat down to enjoy our meal, accompanied by olive oil and fine Italian wine. The atmosphere was warm, filled with laughter and a shared passion for food.
