Italian Baking Class

We are welcoming Davide Tonucci (The Coastal Italian) back to Essential Ingredient Newcastle to prepare a delightful selection of Italian baked goods and sweets with you. This course is hands-on and you will learn a good selection of technical pastry skills as well as share in the joy that is Italian baking.

Your Menu...

• Focaccia - the fluffiest flatbread imaginable, laden with good olive oil. Davide will demonstrate this dough with 2 classic toppings- Rosemary & Sea Salt or Olive & Cherry Tomato


• Grissini - the classic Italian 'breadstick', think of them as crunchy vehicles for beautiful Prosciutto. Each student will make this dough and roll out ready to bake.


• Cannoli - crispy parcels of the creamiest Ricotta, studded with nuts, chocolate or candied fruit. 


• Crostoli - fried pastry? Of course! You can make this beautiful, light as a feather snack any time.


• Tiramisu - Espresso, Cioccolate, Mascarpone, it doesn't get much more classic.
