If you’ve ever been to Italy or dreamed of travelling there, chances are you’ve heard of gelato, the delightful icy treat made extremely famous by the bestselling book Eat, Pray, Love. But what is gelato? Is it just a fancy name for ice cream?

In this class, I will explain exactly what makes gelato different from ice cream, give you my pro tips to make and serve outstanding gelato, and show you how to make a versatile gelato base you can turn into a variety of flavors, from vanilla bean to blueberry to pistachio, and many more. I will even show you how to make dairy-free, vegan gelato, a tasty variation everyone will love, whether they need to abide by a special diet or not.

Skill level: This class is perfect for all skill levels. Beginners will appreciate how easy the Sicilian-Style Gelato Base is to make, while experienced cooks will find inspiration to expand their sweets repertoire.

Important Note: This class requires the use of an ice cream machine. Find more information about this on the Project Description page and in Lesson 3 of the class.
