Hands-On Pizza Making Class

Master pizza making from scratch in a fun BYOB class in La Mesa!



2 hours Location La Mesa Class size 1 to 10 (public classes), 16 to 35   $65 - $89 ($65 for Public class; $89 for Private class)

Pizza and tiramisu- two of Italy's most beloved creations, brought together in one fabulous cooking experience.
In this fun and hands-on class, you'll learn how to create a complete Italian feast. We'll begin by preparing the tiramisu, layering espresso-soaked ladyfingers with a rich, creamy mascarpone filling. The tiramisu will then chill while you turn your attention to the star of the show: homemade pizza.
Our Chef Instructor will guide you through a detailed demonstration, before you replicate how to make a your own dough, how to choose the right flour, basic kneading techniques and how to achieve the perfect crust. You will also make your own personal pizza to enjoy and also one ball of dough to take home. Pull it all together with your favorite classic toppings and enjoy your fresh and scratch made pizza!
No experience is required! We provide all the equipment and ingredients, which are easy to find at local markets if you do not already have them in your home kitchen. Our events are casual and meant to be fun and instructive, not hardcore. This class is designed to be just as fun for the cooking enthusiast who wants to be a part of every step as it is for the first-timer who is happier observing and assisting (or taste testing).
Please arrive 15 minutes early to check in. Aprons will be provided for you to use throughout class. BYOB beer or wine is welcome.

Please note: Public dates for this class require at least 2 guests to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, we may cancel the session; if that happens, we'll inform you and let you choose between a refund or reschedule, so please watch your email/SMS one day prior to the class.

Recent reviews of Hands-On Pizza Making Class

  • 4/5 from Meg Ou, attended May 2026: While we could tell the instructor was a little bit overwhelmed, she clearly demonstrated the entire pizza-making process and had all the ingredients well prepped in advance. We ended up making delicious pizza and had fun as a group. She was really accommodating and encouraging. Overall, it was a great experience!
