Gelato Making Class in Genoa with an Award-Winning Maker

A gelato making class in Genoa puts you next to a professional gelato maker with international prizes to show for it. The hour is hands-on, and you do not need any experience to follow it.

It opens with a short theory part on what makes artisanal gelato what it is: the balance of ingredients, its structure and texture, plus a few tricks that also work in a home kitchen. Then you move to the practical work: side by side with the master you make the gelato, from the base mixes all the way to freezing, and every ingredient is there to be looked at, handled and tasted.

• A tasting of two gelato flavours, to learn to judge quality, texture and aroma
• A personalised recipe booklet with the recipes you made
• Water and soft drinks while you work

The whole class takes about an hour, and adults and children can both take part. Everything needed for the preparation is provided.
