Workshop

“Sfogliatella is described and created”

You will shape it, letting your hands become a bridge between tradition and the present.
Guiding you step by step will be a qualified Neapolitan Sfogliatellier, guardian of ancient gestures and techniques handed down for centuries.

You will discover that working with Sfogliatella dough is not just a technical skill, but a slow and precise ritual, meditative, which requires listening to and respecting the ingredients. It is at this moment, surrounded by the aroma of flour and the warmth of the oven, that Sfogliatella becomes more than just a simple dessert and transforms into a creation, a handmade story.

You will taste the Classic Sfogliatella and the Santa Patrizia, in Riccia and Frolla versions, two souls of the same story, two interpretations of the same memory. Accompanying them are Artisanal Rosoli, made with coffee or citrus fruits, and Neapolitan Moka Coffee, prepared according to the city’s most intimate and shared domestic ritual.
It is a moment suspended in time, in which every bite brings ancient flavours to light. It is a convivial ritual that speaks the language of tradition and imprints itself on the senses like a lasting memory.
