Mild and milky, smooth and silky: any way you stretch it, we love fresh mozzarella! In this hands-on cheese making class in NYC, we'll teach you how to make it yourself.
First, we'll explain coagulation as we tell you how milk turns from fluid to firm curds. Then we'll all roll up our sleeves to turn curds into the beautiful balls that we know as fresh mozzarella. Learn about selecting the right curd, proper water temperature, amount of salt, and how to pull and fold to make your own mouth-watering ball of this Italian staple. Feel free to sample your cheese fresh or take it home to enjoy with a meal.
This class is perfect for beginner cheese makers. Your class is led by a knowledgeable instructor who will provide all the equipment and ingredients. If you've always wanted to learn how to make fresh mozzarella, this cooking class is meant to be casual, fun, and instructive, not hardcore. And if you're looking for fun food experiences in NYC, this cheese-making class is perfect for date night ideas, birthday party ideas, or even team-building activities for your next corporate event.
By the end of class, you'll have the expertise to recreate your homemade cheese recipes at home!

  • 5/5 from Paul Micca, attended Jun 2026: It was such a fun experience! Chef Carolyn was a fantastic teacher, making the class very entertaining with her sense of humor, guiding the class in a very digestable manner, and calming the nerves for those of us trying something for the first time. It was an anniversary gift for my wife and she loved it, plus who doesn't love taking home cheese?

  • 5/5 from Linda Cozzolino, attended Jun 2025: Getting my gift card was easy. Everything you to use for the class was set up when we arrived. Karen introduced herself and gave us a back story of herself first. Then she demonstrated how to make mozzarella while explaining the how, what and when. I loved it! I want to know how it started and how it came to be. Karen was very easy to follow and has a sense of humor, which always helps. I believe I learned the technique of making something my entire family will enjoy, that’s what I loved the most.

  • 4/5 from Michael Frumin, attended Aug 2024: Very educational, friendly/fun, and delicious class on how to make Fresh Mozzarella and Burrata from curd. Definitely feel like I learned enough to start practicing/doing at home, just need to now go further upstream and figure out either (a) where to buy the curd affordably, and/or (b) how to make the curd.
  • 5/5 from Holly Nikodem, attended Jul 2024: I booked seats in the mozzarella & burrata making class for my best friend’s birthday. It was a small class (4 tables of 2-4 folks). Our instructor, Carolyn, was very personable, funny, and gave clear direction. The class was very approachable, even for absolute beginners. We each left with a full sized ball of mozzarella & burrata, as well as learned the

  • 5/5 from Suzzy Kowalski, attended Jul 2023: The teacher was great! She was so lovely, friendly, funny, and very knowledgeable. My bf and I did it as a cute little date and made dinner together with the cheese after. 15/10 recommend!
  • 3/5 from Suhani Patel, attended Jun 2023: The professor was engaging, but it seemed kinda messy. I wish we did the steps together instead of her showing us everything and then us trying to remember. Further, the class said it would last 2 hours and it was only 1.5. hours which is fine but next time I would like to know. Overall, its an average class - cool experience but nothing memorable.
  • 5/5 from Gina Hansen, attended May 2023: The venue was terrific at The Even Hotel, Midtown. It was adjacent to a rooftop patio and there was happy hour at the bar and you could bring your beer or wine to your table. Yellow CocuSocial aprons were provided to you and the instructor, Carolyn Montgomery and her sidekick, Milo, were sensational! She provided step by step instructions and came around to each table to observe we understood. She explained the science behind the cheese making which I found very interesting. And the outcome of the delicious cheese was very gratifying!
  • 5/5 from Michelle Mangini, attended Feb 2023: Teacher was great and engaging. This was a cute activity for a big group or just a friend. Venue of being in a hotel was nice

An expert on the subjects of cheese! And seemingly many other things. I wish to take another class with her!
