Discover the sweet soul of Turin through its most iconic ingredients: chocolate and hazelnuts.
This hands-on dessert class celebrates the city’s rich confectionery tradition, born during the Napoleonic era, when local chocolatiers began blending precious cocoa with hazelnuts from the Langhe region—giving life to the legendary gianduia.
Guided by a passionate local, participants will prepare classic Piedmontese treats such as bonet, gianduia cake, chocolate pralines, and baci di dama.
As the scents of cocoa and roasted hazelnuts fill the kitchen, guests will learn simple techniques, local stories, and the history behind each dessert.
After the preparation, all creations will be tasted together in a warm, welcoming atmosphere.
A perfect experience for chocolate lovers, foodies, and anyone curious about Turin’s sweet heritage.

Hosted by Cesarine, Italy’s oldest network of passionate home cooks, this unique class offers an authentic perspective that no restaurant can provide. Join us to cook, taste, and experience Turin like a local!
