Rome: 2-in-1 Family-Friendly Pasta & Tiramisu Cooking Class

Shivi and Mary were were amazing hosts. They made us feel so welcome and were very friendly and fun. Shivi taught us how to make tiramisu and handmade pasta in a fun and hands-on way. My 12 year old son loved the whole thing. We both agreed it was the best pasta and tiramisu we have had in Rome. We can't wait to make it all again at home. Highly recommend this activity.

Absolutely loved this hands-on Pasta & Gelato Cooking Class in central Rome! We joined as a family of three, including our 10-year-old daughter, and it became a trip highlight. Our instructor Anna was fantastic: clear English, very skilled, and great at explaining not just what to do, but why it matters. She was especially wonderful with our daughter—patient, encouraging, and genuinely engaging—so she felt included in every step, from shaping the dough to the final results. The class is truly hands-on and well organized, with a clean setup and a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. Making pasta from scratch was surprisingly fun, and the gelato part was a perfect finish. Highly recommended for families and anyone who wants a memorable, delicious experience in Rome.

If you’re looking for a pasta-making experience that feels like being welcomed into the home of a long-lost Italian aunt—one who happens to be both hilarious and terrifyingly good with a whisk—then Marzia’s cooking class is exactly where you need to be. I signed up to learn how to make carbonara, but I left with new culinary skills, a full stomach, and the joyful suspicion that Marzia might secretly be a magician disguised as a chef. From the moment we walked in, Marzia greeted us with the kind of warmth that can only come from someone who has spent a lifetime feeding people. She immediately assured us that “nobody burns the pasta on my watch,” which, as someone with a documented history of spaghetti crimes, felt deeply comforting. Her instructions were clear, lively and peppered with the kind of jokes that make you accidentally snort black pepper out your nose. If you want a class that’s delicious, delightful, and filled with laughter, book with Marzia! Non perculare!

It was an amazing experience,i must say..with the making of the pasta, they even accommodated a vegetarian one for me. You have to request that before hand. We had a lovely group and was good interacting with everyone and sharing our travel experiences. The Tiramisu class was really good too and ofcourse we then got to eat what we made which was fantastic. Chef was super and interactive and really bubbly... I would really recommend it, if you are in Rome👌

I was so proud of myself to actually learn how to make pasta from scratch, and I repeated the experience upon returning back home, nailed it!🤌 everything we learned there was fully reproducible, and all the tips and tricks for the best Carbonara & Cacio e pepe pasta recipes were 100% Italian👩‍🍳 I totally recommend such experiences when you visit other places, it was a genuine blast spending quality time with other travelers!

The Pasta and Tiramisu class was an experience to remember when visiting Rome. We enjoyed the chance to make fresh pasta and tiramisu from scratch, to top off with a glass of Prosecco & a shot of limoncello! Sherry, Irmak & Ella were very friendly and welcoming. Helped every step of the way no matter the level of expertise of your cooking. We’ll definitely come again!
