Tuscan Cooking Classes in Montepulciano
Choose Pizza Making or Homemade Pasta with Fabrizio
These are hands-on cooking classes in Montepulciano hosted by me, Fabrizio. Choose between an authentic Neapolitan pizza class at Lieviti Pizzeria or a homemade pasta class where we make fresh pasta and sauces together.
Perfect for couples, families, and small groups looking for a hands-on food experience in Montepulciano.
You’ll cook, eat what you’ve made, and leave with real skills—not just photos. Classes are relaxed, small-group friendly, and designed for travelers who want a genuine food experience in Tuscany.
Which Class Is Right for You?
Pizza classes last about 2.5 hours. Pasta classes last about 3 hours.
Choose Pizza if you want a lively class in a local pizzeria with a wood-fired oven. Choose Pasta if you want a slower, more personal experience making dough and sauces from scratch and sharing the meal together.
