Rates Adults: €190.00 Children: €40.00 Duration 6 hours About Together with our food expert guide, you will experience the best of Tuscan special products – a tour of sheer indulgence! We start with a visit to the famous Mercato Centrale, Florence’s bustling historic market. Enjoy the colours of Mediterranean herbs and vegetables, discover the magic scent of fresh olive oil and enjoy tastings of Florentine salami, Pecorino cheese from Pienza or a piece of bread baked in the wood-burning oven. After the market, we pass through the historic centre with its famous buildings, elegant boutiques and tempting gourmet food shops. A break with a masterly prepared espresso coffee and a delicious Tuscan pastry prepares you for further culinary adventure: an incredible pizza and gelato cooking class! With the pizzaiolo, you’ll make your very own pizza, you’ll stretch it, sauce it, bake it, slice it. It will be the best pizza you ever tasted, and you made it yourself! After the pizza, a chef will briefly fill you in on why gelato remains Italy’s favourite dessert and why the ‘gelato culture’ continues to grow. You will get to know the basic raw ingredients, learn how to select the best products available following specific principles and you will have a presentation and tasting of some of the flavours used in gelato making. You will learn about the development and application of natural colours, the heating and freezing techniques and how they have different effects on ingredients.
