Naples: Neapolitan Pizza and Tiramisù Making Class
About This Experience
This class focuses on the two dishes Naples does best: Neapolitan pizza and tiramisù. You'll make both from scratch in a traditional kitchen in the heart of the old city, guided by an experienced pizzaiolo who has spent years perfecting the craft.
The session opens with the dough. You'll learn about the flour-to-water ratio, the importance of resting time, and the hand-stretching technique that produces a light, blistered crust — no rolling pins allowed. Your toppings are laid out: San Marzano tomatoes, buffalo mozzarella DOP, fresh basil and a drizzle of olive oil. Into the wood-fire oven it goes.
While your pizza bakes, you'll start on the tiramisù: espresso-soaked savoiardi, whipped mascarpone with egg yolk, and an even layer of dark cocoa powder. The chef explains what makes the Italian original different from every imitation you've eaten elsewhere.
At the end, you sit down together to eat what you made, paired with a glass of house wine or prosecco. A copy of both recipes goes home with you.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes this class different from the basic pizza class?
This version focuses on the craft in more depth — smaller group, more time on dough technique, and a glass of wine paired with the meal rather than a soft drink option.
Can I make any pizza I want?
You'll follow the classic Margherita method, then you can add your own toppings from a selection the chef provides. The focus is on technique rather than toppings.
Is the meeting point easy to find?
Yes — a pin is sent with your booking confirmation. It's in the Centro Storico, close to Spaccanapoli, with good public transport links.
What if I'm allergic to gluten?
Gluten-free dough can be arranged with advance notice at the time of booking — email the provider directly after reserving.
Do I need to bring anything?
Just comfortable clothes you don't mind getting a little flour on. An apron is provided, but flour has a way of finding you regardless.
