Cooking Class

Learn the secrets of the authentic Tuscan cuisine

COOKING CLASS: SWEETS

I LOVE TO COMBINE THE FLAVOR OF THE WINE WITH THE PLEAUSURE TO EAT A GREAT DESSERT.

Our Confections Class features a relaxed and respectful environment that teaches true Tuscan culinary secrets. After you finish preparing three wonderful creations that are uniquely distinct from one another, you will have the opportunity to enjoy your desserts as well as a tasting that includes 13 products ranging from fine wines to decadent oils and balsamic vinegars. With guidance from an English-speaking professional, you will be sure to learn everything there is to know about creating delicious and delectable treats.

You will learn the proper techniques to knead, cut, roll and mix the ingredients. The recipes of our chefs are focused on fresh, high-quality and local ingredients, adhering to Tuscan tradition and making this quintessential Italian dish a memorable experience for all. With encouragement and smiles your instructor will provide you with a pleasant and enjoyable day.

Upon arrival the guests are greeted by their host in our Welcome Center for a brief walking tour of this historic property.

  • Making of three different kinds and yummy sweets. Where the chef will explain you the most technical aspects to prepare the sweets, so that you will be able to make your own, directly in your kitchen.
