Full description
Enjoy a course dedicated to the art of pastry making. Italian culinary tradition is full of delicious sweets and desserts; one of the most typical Tuscan desserts is Cantucci: known also as Cantuccini, are almond biscuits that originated in the city of Prato. They are twice-baked, oblong-shaped, dry, crunchy and may be dipped in a drink, traditionally Vin Santo. Learn the traditional recipe for Cantucci, how to prepare and bake them.
Then, learn how to make the perfect tiramisu, a classic Italian dessert. Tiramisu is an elegant and rich layered dessert made with delicate ladyfinger cookies, espresso or instant espresso, mascarpone cheese, eggs, sugar, Marsala wine, rum, and cocoa powder.
Play your ace card learning all about shortcrust pastry, the base for many treats. At the end of the course, take a seat, relax and begin a sweet sensorial journey tasting the fruits of your labor. Sip a nice tea or cappuccino to end this great experience in the best way.
