Gnocchi and Tiramisu Cooking Class in Milan

Expect a relaxed 3–4 hour session in a small group (usually 6–12 people) inside a professional kitchen in central Milan. A local chef walks you through making potato gnocchi from scratch, shaping fresh pasta or ravioli, and assembling a proper tiramisu. You’ll finish by sitting down together to eat what you made, paired with a couple of glasses of wine. It’s hands-on, casual, and genuinely educational if you pay attention. The pace is steady but not rushed, and the chef usually has decent English.

Best time is spring or fall when Milan weather is pleasant and tourist crowds are lighter. Avoid July and August unless you like hot kitchens and sweaty aprons. Expect to pay around €70–€110 per person depending on group size, location, and whether wine and ingredients are fully included. Private classes push closer to €150.

Pick the version that includes both gnocchi and tiramisu; skip anything that also tries to cram in pizza — it usually dilutes the focus. Tip: go in the late afternoon slot if offered. You get to eat your creations for dinner instead of lunch, which feels more civilized after a day of sightseeing.
