Hands in flour

Heart in Tuscany

Join me in the hills of Florence for an unforgettable day of handmade pasta, family traditions, and laughter.

Just 20 minutes from the city center.

Not a classroom, but a family kitchen

Ciao, I’m Carlotta!

Born in Emilia Romagna, the land of fresh pasta, I grew up in a kitchen filled with family and flour. Now, I bring those traditions to Florence to share my dream with you.

Join me for a cooking class that feels like Sunday lunch at home. You’ll learn the exact techniques my grandmother passed down to me, using only the best local ingredients: organic eggs, garden-fresh vegetables, and Chianti wine from the vineyards right outside my window.
Cooking with me isn’t just a lesson; it’s an authentic spoonful of Italy.

Traveling with children?

Don’t worry about “boring” adult activities.

My kitchen is a playground for the senses!

Kids will get their own mini-aprons and learn to make colorful gnocchi, shaped pasta, and pizza faces. It’s safe, messy, and incredibly fun.
