Artisan Italian Gelato Workshop

Discover the craft of authentic Italian gelato - a culinary experience that blends tradition, technique, and irresistible flavour.

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to create two classic gelato flavours from scratch, using professional methods that highlight texture, balance, and natural ingredients. Together with your instructor, you’ll explore the science behind gelato making: from heating and stabilizing the base to churning, folding, and finishing each batch with artisan precision.

Working step-by-step, you'll prepare a silky Fiordilatte Gelato, the foundation of many Italian flavours, and transform part of that base into Stracciatella Gelato - studded with delicate pieces of dark chocolate. You’ll also craft two warm sauces: a luscious chocolate sauce and a buttery caramel sauce, perfect for drizzling over your freshly churned creations.

This workshop focuses on building essential gelato-making skills: understanding emulsification, temperature control, flavour infusion, and the distinctive low-air churning technique that gives gelato its signature density.

You’ll finish by tasting, garnishing, and presenting your gelato like a true Italian gelatiere, enjoying a sweet experience that is equal parts culinary craft and indulgence.
