Made with simple ingredients like savoiardi (ladyfingers), mascarpone cheese, and eggs, it’s an indulgent treat that can be easy to make—if you know how.

Buon Appetito!
With your pasta freshly made, you’ll choose your sauce from favorites such as carbonara, amatriciana, cacio e pepe, and alfredo, and then you’ll sit down with your group to savor your homemade lunch or dinner. Enjoy a glass of wine with your meal, then get ready for dessert!
After eating your homemade tiramisu, you’ll be served a classic Italian coffee or a glass of limoncello to end your Rome culinary experience.
