Hands-on Pizza Making and Gelato Class | Shared

Learn to Make Italy’s Most Beloved Creations

Discover the joy of crafting two of Italy’s most iconic dishes during an unforgettable hands-on cooking experience in the heart of Rome. Guided by a friendly, English-speaking local chef, this Pizza & Gelato Making Class will teach you the authentic Italian way to prepare crispy Roman-style pizza and creamy artisanal gelato — and reveal once and for all the difference between gelato and ice cream.

Cook in a Historic Roman Setting

The experience takes place in one of InRome Cooking’s stunning venues — either a 17th-century palazzo just behind Piazza Navona or our modern cooking school steps away from the Pantheon. Upon arrival, you’ll be welcomed with a glass of bubbly Prosecco and some delicious traditional Italian appetizers. The warm, elegant atmosphere makes it easy to feel like part of the family from the very first moment.

The Secrets Behind Perfect Pizza

Under the expert guidance of your chef, learn the centuries-old techniques of kneading, rolling, and topping authentic Italian pizza dough. Discover what makes Roman pizza unique — thin, crispy, and bursting with flavor. Choose from a selection of fresh local ingredients: fragrant basil, salty prosciutto, rich mozzarella, or juicy black olives. Whether you prefer a classic rossa with tomato sauce or a simple bianca drizzled with olive oil, your pizza will be a reflection of your personal Italian taste.

Make Authentic Italian Gelato

Next, dive into the sweet side of Italian culinary tradition. Learn how to prepare silky, flavorful gelato from scratch, exploring the difference in texture and technique that makes Italian gelato so special. From fresh fruit to rich chocolate, you’ll create your favorite flavors to enjoy later — the perfect finale to your Roman feast.

Dine, Toast, and Enjoy

After cooking, sit down in our beautiful dining room and savor your homemade pizza and gelato, paired with wine and soft drinks. It’s not just a class — it’s a Roman experience filled with laughter, learning, and the irresistible taste of Italy.
