Have you ever wondered what the difference is between gelato and ice cream? Or how many different types of gelato there are? Or what machines you need to make it? You can find out if you enrol yourself in a gelato making class in Italy. Italy is home to some of the world’s finest cuisine so it is no surprise that when it comes to gelato and ice cream they are right there at the top. For more than 10 years now the Gelato University has been open to students who want to learn this special art.
Courses last anything from a few days to a few months but for those who only want a peek into this world you can book a course that takes a few hours. Classes are taught by the masters – you will be learning from some of the best ice cream and gelato makers in the world. Mornings are usually spent learning about the intricacies of this special art and during afternoons students get to try it out themselves. You will also learn all about the machines that are used to make either as well as how to run a gelato and ice cream business. Students who take longer courses graduate with the ability to prepare cold desserts in some of the top restaurants around the world or go ahead to open their own gelato and ice cream making businesses.
How do you get into one of these classes? Simple – you can book through a Tuscany tour company. You only need to tell them when you plan to take your course and how long you plan to be there for. They can arrange accommodation for you – there are affordable dormitories for students.
