Hi All -

Does anyone know of/can recommend a place in Florence where I can take cooking classes specializing in Italian breakfast cakes?

Thanks!
 
Are you interested in several classes or a one time class?

I think you'd have to look into "pasticceria" or pastry type classes to get breakfast cakes included - something like this, but this is a professional class: https://www.cordonbleu-it.com/en-gb/courses-en/all-courses/pastry-cooking
while this is a 2 hour class: http://tours.visitflorence.com/tour...ooking-Class-with-a-Local-Chef/d519-17024P752

Also you're more likely to do what you're interested in if you get a private cooking class, not a group class.
You could contact Fiamma and Ginny from Kitchen Chez Nous and ask to see if it is something they could offer, if you're interested in a one time class: https://www.discovertuscany.com/tuscany-cooking-classes/interview-kitchen-chez-nous.html

Eataly has lots of one of cooking classes as well, but there is a specific calendar: https://www.eataly.net/it_it/corsi/firenze --- not sure they offer private classes .
 
Try reaching out to local bakeries; sometimes they offer private classes or workshops. Have you had any luck finding a class already, or are you still on the hunt?
 
I came across your old post and thought I’d share— I took a cooking class in Florence a while back, and it was amazing. For Italian breakfast cakes, you might want to check out some local culinary schools or cooking studios. They often have specialty classes that could be just what you're looking for.
