Dough to Dessert: 3-in-1 Cooking Class near Piazza Navona
Master the art of making fettuccine, ravioli, and mouthwatering tiramisu in a single day!
Looking for that cooking class in Rome that gives the most at the best value? This is it. Really. In a professional Italian kitchen, you'll be guided step-by-step through the time-honored process of handmaking two pastas and a dessert. Our passionate chefs love sharing real techniques and tips, so you can bet you'll get your workout in as you knead that dough to perfection under their watchful eyes. And your tiramisu will come out perfectly fluffy and soft to enjoy with your homemade meal.
- Meet your guide at Piazza Sant'Apollinare 41
- Mix up your dough
- Pasta
- Ravioli
- Wine and dine
- Fun for everyone
- Tiramisu
- Your tour will finish after your dinner
Head to a professional kitchen where you'll suit up (ok, apron up) alongside your fellow students and world travelers. Your chefs will lay out the plan for the class and get right into teaching you the secrets of a successful tiramisu. While your dessert chills and softens, you'll start on the two pastas from the same batch of dough. After some figurative elbow grease, your hard work is rewarded with a glass of wine or other drink alongside your own dish of pasta.
3-in-1 Cooking Class Tour Description
Your 3-hour cooking class includes:
Hands-on instruction from professional chefs
Use of professional kitchen and equipment
Homemade fettuccine and ravioli meal with a choice of sauces
A glass of wine or soft drink
Tiramisu dessert followed by coffee or limoncello
Maximum group size of 18
Authentic Tiramisu
It's easy to mess up a great tiramisu, but not when you have a seasoned chef by your side. Follow their tips for success and you're sure to be able to re-create this tasty treat at home. You'll use fresh ingredients like ladyfingers, mascarpone cheese, and eggs to build your own dessert to die for. And you'll feel confident with this early success to tackle the pasta dough next!
Fettuccine and Ravioli
Now it's time to master those pasta-making skills you're aching to brag about when you get home. So with sleeves rolled up, watch your chef carefully lead you through each step of the process. No machines, no tools. Just your hands and muscles feeling each push and pull of the dough as you build that ever-important gluten.
Once you've worked to roll that dough out to your chef's approval, it's time to learn about all the different types of pasta that can be cut. For this class, you'll master cutting the proper size of fettuccine with half of your dough. Then compare how well you do against the rest of your group as you carefully stuff and pinch off your ravioli so it won't explode as it cooks! Don't worry—your chefs are there to help you out.
Wine and Dine
Finally, after your hours slaving away in the kitchen and laughing with your fellow students, it's time to sit back and enjoy your meal. Enjoy the company of like-minded travelers as you sample what truly authentic, fresh pasta tastes like. Warning: it might forever ruin Olive Garden for you, and that's actually ok. After all, Italians know Italian food best—and now you will too!

A Culinary Dream Come True in Rome!
Andrea Bugen
I had the most unforgettable experience taking the Pasta and Tiramisu cooking class in Rome! From start to finish, it was an absolute joy. The class was hands-on, and we learned how to make two types of homemade pasta—ravioli and fettuccine—from scratch. The instructor was not only skilled but also incredibly personable, guiding us through each step of the process with patience and expertise. We got to roll, fill, and shape our ravioli and then learned the perfect technique for making fresh fettuccine. By the end of it, I felt like a true Italian chef. I can't wait to get home and cook for all my friends and family this holiday season!

Unverified Review
We took a class on the last Sunday of September. We were taught by chef Forio. He was entertaining and informative. The hands-on experience to make fettucine, ravioli and tiramisu has prepped us to be confident pasta makers. Detailed instructions were given, so it was fun. Post making the pasta, they gave us a choice to have it in Amatriciana, Cacio e pepe or tomato based. We all chose amatriciana. Was great. We could opt for a glass of wine or soft drinks, followed by a shot of limoncello. It was a fun half day for us.
