Summary: We could not have been more pleased with this experience. The setting was beautiful. The class was exceptional. We made so many kinds of pastries. Sfinci, cannoli, sesame biscuits. They even accommodated one of our gluten intolerance with a delicious almond cake. Guido, Enza, and Giovanna bake with joy and we laughed the whole time. Such a great experience. Highly recommend.
